On Banda Island you can buy:
* Beer (-cold- when finally the solar energy system works);
* Soda (as with beer);
* Cigarettes (no choice other than the cheapest local brand: Supermatch);
* Chocalate (sometimes);
Included in the daily flat fee is - besides food, regular snacks and accommodation: unlimited filtered drinking water, coffee, tea, home brewed Waragi @80% alcohol and natural herbs that can be smoked.
You might be able to order special luxury from the transportboats that pass by on request(they will buy it for you on the mainland for a fee). Otherwise bring everything you'll think you need.
