Sub Saharan Africa

Djibouti has a predominantly Muslim population and visitors should dress in a conservative manner in the city.  However, it is far less strict than other Islamic countries and use of swimwear at the swimming pool at The Sheraton Hotel and on the islands is unrestricted. Homosexual behaviour is illegal.

French, Arabic and Somali are widely spoken.
