Tips for Visiting Adi Island

  • Local boat operators are the only practical way to reach the island-confirm licenses and safety equipment before boarding.
  • Respect local Papuan customs-ask permission before photographing people or village sites.
  • Bring insect repellent and long sleeves for evenings; coastal mosquitoes can be persistent.
