Travel Hints |
| |
| Light
cotton clothing is ideal for our tropical climate. Hats
are also important as protection from the direct sun. |
| |
| The
tropical sun will burn your skin quickly. Bring plenty
of sunscreen and when snorkeling, the additional
protection of dark colored clothing is a good idea. |
| |
| Reef
walkers or tennis shoes will help you on the beaches and
when wading in the coral bottom lagoons. |
| |
| Our
waters are warm so you won't need your wetsuit but dive
skins are good for protection from coral and jellyfish
stings. |

General Information |
| |
|
There is a GSM Cell phone system on Rongelap. We
recommend visitors bring a cell phone with SIM card and
GSM 900 (for Majuro and Ebeye) and 1900 (Rongelap and
outer islands). GSM Triband is highly recommended as it
works both ways. SIM cards are available at NTA for
$15.00. There is also internet service on Rongelap.
