Fishing and snorkeling is amazing. A boat ride to the those spots are only 30 minutes away from the mainland. I miss it. - Apr 2018
The best part of Djibouti is the marine life/excursions. Most of the year, you can hop on a boat and spend a day snorkeling and diving, lounging on the beach, and soaking up the sun. The Lac Assal tour was worthwhile, visiting the lowest point in Africa. I also have really enjoyed the Ramadan season because of the fantastic and opulent iftars. The food is iso delicious. - Jun 2016
Diving has been the big highlight. There are two dive shops (one English and one French) and they have great trips, including large boats (one that looks like a 50' pirate ship). The trips to Corambado (sp?) beach are fun and the beach is great with white sand and a restaurant. Arta Plage beach is rough but has great snorkling. And the dive boats go to White Sands beach and to Mousha Island all the time. Oh! And there's an 18 hole golf course. Pretty rugged and you have to dodge the goats and camels but it's a way to swing a club on the weekends (which are Friday and Saturday here). - Aug 2015
Swimming with whale sharks, day and overnight trips to Moucha Island, seeing landscapes that look extra-terrestrial (like the chimneys of Lac Abbe). - Feb 2013
