During the wet season, from June to October, quick-drying clothes and waterproof footwear will help you stay comfortable during sudden downpours.
If you’re planning to spend time at the beach, don’t forget swimwear, reef-safe sunscreen, and a cover-up for when you’re out of the water. The ocean in Gaira is warm, but the sun can be strong even on cloudy days. For evenings, a light sweater or shawl might come in handy, as temperatures can dip slightly after sunset. No matter when you visit, comfortable walking shoes are a must for exploring Gaira’s attractions.
