eSIM for Eritrea

Massawa's Red Sea shoreline and the coral-fringed Dahlak islands make Eritrea a coastline worth documenting in real time, photo by photo.

Eritrea's Red Sea coast runs from the port city of Massawa out to the coral reefs and uninhabited islets of the Dahlak Archipelago, a stretch of coastline still largely off the standard tourist map. Sharing that view in real time, or simply checking a ferry schedule, depends on a connection that works away from the capital.

Telefy's eSIM covers that gap with data that activates before the ferry leaves Massawa harbour, no physical SIM swap required. Plan sizes range from short coastal stays to longer trips, so travellers can pick data to match the days spent on the water.

If you are in the coverage area and the eSIM is properly installed, please follow these steps:

1. Disable Airplane Mode: Ensure that Airplane Mode is turned off on your device.

2. Enable Data Roaming: Go to your phone settings and enable data roaming for the eSIM.

3. Restart Your Phone: Restart your device and wait for up to 30 minutes, as it may take some time for the eSIM to connect to the internet.

4. Select Network Manually: Try manually selecting the network that the eSIM should connect to for internet access. This can often help establish a connection.
