What should I pack when moving to Manzanillo?
We asked people living in Manzanillo to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Manzanillo, it is important to pack items that can withstand the hot, humid climate. Light, breezy clothing made from breathable fabrics, like cotton and linen, is essential for staying comfortable in the heat. Sunscreen and sunglasses are also essential for protection from the strong year-round sunshine. Depending on the season and activities planned, swimsuits, hats, and sandals can help you make the most of your time in Mexico. If applicable, don’t forget to pack the necessary documents for your residency permit," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Manzanillo, Mexico.
"Cranberry sauce, other food stuffs that are common north of the border, but not common in a Mexican diet --- bring some; leave the coats and blankets, except one light jacket in good condition and one light blanket for winter. If you travel to San Miguel de Allende, Mazamitla or Tapalpa, the high elevations there will require more warmth so you might take one extra for travel --- these you will not need and in Manzanillo, mildew will ruin them," commented one expat who made the move to Manzanillo, Mexico.
