Uzi Island Travel Guide

The people of Uzi are quite old fashioned. If you are passing by a group of local people sitting under a tree, please greet them first. A simple Shikamoo or Mambo will generate a lot of good will. Also, please dress conservatively, which can be quite difficult in the heat. Lastly, if you are a man, please refrain from shaking hands with the women unless they put their hands out first.

The important thing to realize is that Uzi is not Stone Town.
