December to May (dry season) for sunny weather and calmer seas.
Local Tips
Cash is preferred at most places. The local bus connects to Roseau but runs infrequently, check ahead. Try the catch-of-the-day at seaside shacks.
Cultural Etiquette
Greet people with a smile and a 'Good Morning' or 'Good Afternoon.' Casual, modest dress is appreciated, especially when visiting churches or rural areas. Tipping 10% is appreciated but not mandatory.
Safety Warnings
Salisbury is generally very safe, but take care swimming if the sea is rough and stay clear of remote areas after dark. Petty theft is rare but do not leave valuables unattended on the beach.
Hidden Gems
Seek the secluded black-sand beaches just north of the main town, and ask locals about the traditional pottery workshops and spontaneous village music nights.
