Why stay in an expensive 5-star hotel when you can sleep on a park bench with a piece of cardboard over you for free? :)

    • The word on the street is that the streets of Betio (the 'downtown' of the Tarawa atoll) are not safe at night, particularly for women. Take a taxi if you need to go anywhere in Betio at night.

    • Swimming is good on the ocean side of Tarawa. I wouldn't swim in the lagoon, after what I witnessed there many times. Frankly, the people use the lagoon as a toilet. You see them run out there in low tide to empty their bowels. I suspect they have the tide times memorized, since they synchronize their ablutions to the low tides

     Hi Glen, Your Kirabati pages are very good. Ugh! just thinking about the Lagoon, brings a new meaning to the nautical term "The poop deck" LOL (sort of) Cheers, Kat
