Island Travel Tips for First Timers
First-time island travelers make a handful of predictable mistakes, and knowing them in advance saves time, money and stress.
Islands run on their own rhythm, and the logistics of transfers, supplies and weather all need a little more thought than a city trip.
- Confirm transfer times before you book anything
- Bring cash, some small islands have few ATMs
- Check the season and weather window first
- Book the room early, inventory is limited
Plan the logistics first and the relaxation follows naturally once you arrive.
