Workation in Djibouti: the essentials
Most of the country lives in this port capital, set on a peninsula where the Gulf of Tadjoura meets the Gulf of Aden. The economy runs on the docks that handle much of Ethiopia's trade, the railway to Addis Ababa and the foreign military bases, including French, American and Chinese ones, which also shape the expat crowd. The old colonial quarter around Place Menelik has arcades and whitewashed facades, and the African quarter next to it is where the markets are. Summers are punishing and daily life runs in French, Arabic and Somali. Whale sharks visit the gulf in winter, and the airport is only about 6 km from the centre.

Despite being the capital, OpenStreetMap shows no coworking space within 10 km of Djibouti City. Remote workers fall back on hotel lobbies or cafés with wifi; a business center may exist locally but is not captured in the data.
