What to Bring

You’ll find lots of ideas for packing lists online, but here are some essentials:

• A good pair of sunglasses
• Two swimsuits (so you have one to wear while the other one is drying)
• For shoes, casual sandals for beach use, and a solid, comfortable pair for hiking
• For clothing, include a pair of long pants and lightweight jacket along with the usual shorts, tanks, polo shirts, skirts, etc. It sometimes does get cool in the evenings.
• Refillable water bottle

What to Leave Behind

In general, people tend to overpack.

• Save yourself some stress and leave your valuable jewelry behind. That way, you won’t worry about the possibility of theft.
• Pack light so you have more room for souvenirs to take home!

What to Pick Up Here

Save some room in your luggage and pick up these items after you land:

• Sunscreen and aloe gel
• Beach towel
• Flip-flops (called slippers in Hawaii)
• Hat
