What should I pack when moving to Zihuatanejo?

Answer this Question

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

"When moving to Zihuatanejo, it's important to pack lightweight and breathable clothing due to the tropical climate. Include items like shorts, t-shirts, and sundresses, as well as a hat and sunglasses for sun protection. Don't forget your swimwear, as the area is known for its beautiful beaches. Pack a pair of comfortable walking shoes for exploring the city and flip flops for the beach. It's also a good idea to bring a light jacket or sweater for cooler evenings. Remember to pack all necessary travel documents, including your passport, visa, and any other identification you might need. It's also wise to have copies of these documents in case of loss or theft. Bring any prescription medications you need, along with a copy of your prescription. It might also be useful to pack a basic first aid kit with band-aids, antiseptic wipes, and over-the-counter pain relievers. Don't forget your toiletries, but keep in mind that most items can be purchased locally. If you have specific brands you prefer, it might be a good idea to bring them with you. Pack your electronics, such as your phone, laptop, and chargers. An adapter might be necessary as Mexico uses different electrical outlets than some other countries. Lastly, consider packing a Spanish-English dictionary or phrasebook, or download a translation app on your phone. While many people in Zihuatanejo speak English, it can be helpful to know some basic Spanish phrases," commented one expat who made the move to Zihuatanejo, Mexico.
