Females can get away with things like:
- shorts
- tops
- skirts
- dresses
- capris
Due to the humidity of the country you will want to wear any of them in lightweight fabrics or natural ones that breathe like cotton or linen. Stay away from denim as it is one of the worse fabrics that you could wear and they take forever to dry.
Typically women should over their stomach and avoid super short shorts or skirts while away from the beach. If you are unsure as to what to wear, err on the side of caution and cover up. Things like sarongs are very helpful as you could use it as a towel, coverup, blanket, curtain while changing, and so many more as they work great in a pinch, are lightweight, and dry quickly.
