Top Tips for First-Time Visitors

Oceania isn’t one-size-fits-all—it’s a region of remarkable contrasts. From Australia’s deserts and reefs to New Zealand’s glaciers and Māori culture, and the Pacific Islands’ laid-back traditions and turquoise lagoons, every destination offers a unique experience. Research each country’s customs, climates, and entry requirements to avoid surprises. Travel between islands or nations often involves long flights, so plan a flexible itinerary. Learn basic greetings in local languages to show respect, and be open to diverse cultures, landscapes, and food. Understanding this variety helps you travel more meaningfully and appreciate Oceania’s incredible richness.

Embrace the Vast Diversity

Oceania covers a wide range of climates—from the tropical humidity of Fiji to the alpine chill of New Zealand’s South Island. Layered clothing is key. Include sun protection, waterproof gear, and sturdy walking shoes for outdoor adventures. Reef-safe sunscreen and insect repellent are must-haves in coastal or rainforest areas. Power outlets differ between countries, so bring a universal adapter. Don’t overpack—laundry services are widely available. Be prepared for both beach days and mountain hikes, often on the same trip! A thoughtfully packed bag means less stress and more freedom to explore comfortably across climates.

Pack Smart for All Climates

Indigenous cultures—like the Aboriginal peoples of Australia, Māori in New Zealand, and various Pacific Islander communities—are central to Oceania’s identity. Take time to learn about their histories, spiritual beliefs, and deep connections to land and nature. Support cultural experiences run by Indigenous communities, such as guided walks, art tours, and traditional performances. Always ask before photographing people or sacred sites. Understanding protocols, like removing shoes or observing silence, shows respect. Responsible tourism includes acknowledging past injustices and valuing present-day voices. These respectful interactions often become the most enriching and memorable parts of your trip.

Respect Indigenous Cultures

Oceania’s natural beauty is both a gift and a responsibility. With fragile ecosystems—from coral reefs to ancient forests—sustainable travel is crucial. Reduce your environmental footprint by avoiding single-use plastics, supporting eco-certified tours, and minimising domestic flights by combining destinations. Respect wildlife from a distance and stay on marked trails. Choose locally-owned accommodations and eateries to support communities directly. Volunteering or joining conservation experiences can enhance your visit. Responsible travel not only protects the environment but also ensures your tourism dollars benefit local people and preserve Oceania’s magic for future travelers.
