Packing

🔅Don’t bring so much clothes. Washing is cheap and quick. Nice clothes with good zipped pockets.

🔅Good shoes to go have on rocky beaches, you’re on snorkel and a micro towel. You can often snorkel directly from beaches. This is our most used items.

🔅A power bank. We bought one that is charged by sun as well and can charge two phone similar

🔅Extra charge cord.

🔅Some game to entertain you We always play Yatzy👌

🔅Extra glasses and contact lenses if you use it.

🔅An small backpack that is water resistant and foldable For all small trips to the beach or store.
🔅glass bottle to refill with water. Many hotells offer free refill

🔅Medicine (check so it’s ok to bring, sometimes you’ll need a letter from you’re doctor) Dimor is always good to bring. The stomach has a way of reacting the first weeks and running out looking for a pharmacy might not be you’re priority at that moment.
