The Marshall Islands has a tropical climate. The country only sees two seasons a year. A dry season from December to April and a rainy season from April to December.

The islands are known to experience typhoons between the months of July and November. Travellers should be wary of travelling during these months as flooding is common.

The average temperature stays around 25 degrees all year long.

The Marshall Islands is considered safe because the crime rate is low. The most common crimes are break-ins and thefts from homes, hotels and vehicles. These crimes are preventable if you always ensure your doors are locked.

If you plan to partake in the nightlife, be aware that violence can and does break out in nightclubs and bars. Intoxicated people can become combative and pick fights. Be sure to keep your wits about you and avoid any type of confrontation that comes your way.

The Marshall Islands has more seasides than any one person can count. But, not very often do you find a seaside with a pearl farm. While visiting the Marshall Islands, make the RRE Mariculture pearl farm in Majuro one of your stops.

Visitors to the farm will see that it is home to a clam farm. This is where large clams are bred. These are sold off to the aquarium market.

Majuro has much to offer including seaside cottages near the RRE Mariculture pearl farm that are able to be rented. Tourists can also dive with sharks near this area as well.

Here are some essential items to consider taking on your trip to the Marshall Islands:

• Conservative Clothing – Locals dress modestly with tops that cover their shoulders and trousers, dresses, or shorts.
• Umbrella and/or Raincoat
• Scuba Gear
