Many tropical islands adopt a relaxed cultural approach to time, often dubbed “island time,” where punctuality is flexible and life moves at a gentler pace. Tourists either adapt happily or become frustrated if they expect rigid adherence to schedules. This slower rhythm can benefit mental health by prioritizing community and reducing stress, yet it also challenges fast-paced visitors who need timely services. Understanding “island time” provides insight into how cultural values shape time perception, bridging the gap between holiday bliss and daily responsibilities.
