what are your must pack items?

I always have my swim toys when I travel south (mask,fins,snorkel). I bought a pair of mini fins which work fine but take of way less space. Other things I have on my always list is a good headlamp with extra batteries, small pair of bino's. I have an issue with sunglasses (they seem to walk away) so only travel with cheapos unless I have serious fishing planned. I gave up trying to catch fish in Jamaica so the fishing gear will be staying home. But since I am going to Jamaica, will be picking up a new pair of small sharp scissors (if you have to ask, don't lol)

So what are your must have items?

More hardware or tools....

Lately, have been leaving our snorkel equipment, an old school radio and the cooler with Jamaican friends. They are always in tip top shape when we return. Swimsuits, wraps, sandals, hat, sunglasses and my magnifiers. MUSIC, Kindle and generally some dresses and skirts for the holidays. I could go on forever, since I always overpack!!! All the stuff that women need seems to be never ending! :) I'm sure I'll be near the weight limit again this year. Always have an emergency pack with the essentials, cortisone cream, antibiotic ointment, course of antibiotics, medrol-pak, aleve, benadryl, sunscreen, lomotil and colace. Gotta be prepared, just in case....:) Plus, have to try and save some room for stuff for the canines in Jamaica!!

Sunglasses, sandals, various items of clothing, tunes, OTC medications, & cash...

Other then cloths...
Shades
Insulated cup
Splenda
Portable speaker/Ipod
Deet repellent, Benadryl, Neosporin & Motrin
Hand sanitizer
Pillow case
Face cloths

Must haves: Bug spray, Sunscreen, Iphone with 9gb of reggae music, portable USB speaker, 10 cigars, smoking papers, Book.

I pack lite: Sunglasses, Sandals, 2 pairs of shorts, 2 swim suites, 1 polo shirt ( I wear the sandals, 1 shirt, 1 shorts on the plane, so the list above is cut in half), couple lighters, sun screen, 3 x 3 oz bottles of body wash, shampoo, conditioner. Sometimes I must take my laptop if I'm helping the resort with configuring wifi and stuff.

Lets not forget the bottle opener
it is a must have

Only must pack items are, swim trunks, sandals, eyeglasses, ticket, passport, and debit card...
Everything else is extra...

Here is what I "don't" pack,,,,,any and All electronic stuff,including phones....Kinda against the grain to walk down the Negril beach with all it's natural beauty and have a cell phone in your hand at all times.

We always save room in our bag for things to give away. We know that the gift of cash is always appreciated, but we like to also bring gifts for our maids and other staff where we stay, and this trip we have items for Father Jimaica and St. Anthony's. We have a lot of respect for the work they are doing and hope to help make their holidays a little brighter.
