What should I pack when moving to Praslin?

Answer this Question

We asked people living in Praslin to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...

"When moving to Praslin, you should pack lightweight and breathable clothing due to the tropical climate. Include items such as shorts, t-shirts, and sundresses. Don't forget to pack a good amount of swimwear, as you'll likely spend a lot of time at the beach. Pack a few formal outfits for special occasions or dining out at upscale restaurants. Include a light jacket or sweater for cooler evenings. Footwear should include comfortable walking shoes, sandals, and water shoes for the beach. Don't forget to pack plenty of sun protection items, such as a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and high SPF sunscreen. Bring along your toiletries, prescription medications, and any other personal care items you use daily. Pack your important documents, such as your passport, driver's license, and any necessary immigration paperwork. If you plan on cooking, consider packing some of your favorite non-perishable food items, as they may be hard to find on the island. Bring your electronics, such as your phone, laptop, and chargers. Also, consider bringing a power adapter if your devices don't match the local outlets. Pack some entertainment items, like books, board games, or a deck of cards, for downtime. Lastly, don't forget to pack a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated, and a good quality insect repellent to protect against mosquitoes," said a member in Praslin, Saint Lucia.
