Safety notes
- Summer here is humid as well as hot, and the humidity is what catches visitors out: shade, water and an indoor plan for the middle of the day matter more than the temperature reading suggests.
- Flying a drone needs a permit, and there are large no-fly areas around airports, ports and government buildings. Do not assume a camera drone is allowed anywhere.
- Do not photograph people without asking, and do not photograph military, port or government sites at all.
- During Ramadan, eating, drinking and smoking in public in daylight is not done, and opening hours shift; check before you plan a day around a site.
