Mahajanga Packing List Tips by Norali

Everything to protect you from the sun and others.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Sandals, walking shoes, swimwear
your lightest clothes in cotton, linen. More than anwhere else on the island, the West is very hot, sun is very strong too.

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: lenses and cleaning products (not sure about the supply there and if yes, what about the price). I wear lenses so am very sensible to this aspect. Your stacks of usual medecines or prescriptions for equivalents.

Photo Equipment: zoom lenses for those nice views - memory sticks (there may be some but not sure about them being a good bargain over there and on other parts of the island, btw).

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: swimwear

Miscellaneous: -Sunscreen with high SPF (tons of it) - sunglasses
-bank notes (not that many atm's and not all insititutions use traveller chèques, let alone food stalls)
