Saint Lucia Packing List Tips by cjg1 Top 5 Page for this destination

Pack Some Friends for the Trip

Miscellaneous: The more the merrier. This was the first time we did a big trip with another couple instead of a group of single friends. It was a great time and I love travelling with my friend Chris.

Packing for a Beach Getaway

Luggage and bags: We packed heavy for this trip since we needed both swimwear and evening attire for the resort. Two rollaboards for us and a backpack for me.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Plenty of lightweight clothing for the hot weather:Tee shirts, shorts, swimsuits, linen pants, linen shirts and hats.

For the evening the resort had a dress code so I needed long pants and collared shirts.

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Shampoo, deodorant, toothbrush, toothpaste, hairbrush, gel, body wash, contact lens solution, lotion. Sunblock and bug spray is a must.

Photo Equipment: Digital camera, water camera and video camera

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: Water shoes, flip flops

Camera Equipment

Photo Equipment: I've found the best camera to have on a beach vacation is an underwater/waterproof camera. My Cannon waterproof camera has prove to be worth its weight in gold. We never worry about the camera when we are on a boat, beach or splashing about in the pool or ocean.

Pack a Hat

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: Definitely pack a hat when on a beach vacation. I credit hats for keeping my head, neck and ears sunburn free during our travels. I usually pack two hats; my Jacaru and a Tommy Bahama panama Hat. My wife always brings an assortment of sun hats to keep her from getting crispy.
