A brief summary to Island Break

From Eve

Know before you go

Hi, I'm Eve. Here are a few practical things to know before exploring Island Break.

  • Bring USD in cash, as there are no ATMs on Fulidhoo Island. Credit cards are widely accepted, but cash is useful for smaller establishments and local markets.
  • Pack mosquito repellent, as Fulidhoo doesn't fumigate like resort islands. Mosquitoes can be prevalent, especially during dining experiences.
  • Confirm ferry/speedboat schedules in advance with your guesthouse, as timings can change. Booking through your accommodation is often easier.
  • Respect local customs by dressing modestly when outside of the bikini beach area. Shoulders and knees should be covered.
