Packing for
a Tropical Weekend Getaway
|
A weekend getaway at a tropical location can be just what you need to
help you forget about the stresses of everyday life for a couple of
days and to completely relax and enjoy your vacation. Packing for this
type of vacation doesn’t have to be stressful or time consuming. There
are certain items you will want to be sure to bring for the beach, dinner,
nighttime entertainment, shopping or other activities and this article
will detail some of the critical items you should be sure to bring along
for your tropical weekend getaway.
Chances are you will spend the majority of the time during your tropical
getaway on the beach. For this reason you should be sure to pack everything
that you need for spending your days on the beach. A swimsuit is one
obvious choice to pack for this vacation. You can either bring along
one bathing suit for each day you plan to spend on the beach or you
could just bring one and rinse and dry the bathing suit each night.
Besides your bathing suit, you should also bring a wide brimmed hat
and sunglasses to protect you from the sun’s rays. You may also want
to bring a beach towel if they are not provided by the resort where
you are staying. These are just some of the basics but you may also
consider bringing along a t-shirt or other clothing in case you want
o be less exposed to the sun in the afternoon. You will also definitely
want to either bring along sunscreen or plan on purchasing it right
away. Books, magazines and other forms of entertainment are other items
that you might consider packing for when you are on the beach.
You will also need to pack for dinners and nights on the town. Beach
towns are usually not very formal but if your resort has a restaurant
onsite you might want to inquire as to whether or not there is a dress
code so you can be sure to bring along appropriate attire. For women,
sundresses with sandals or high heels may be appropriate while men will
most likely feel comfortable in khakis and a polo shirt with a pair
of dress shoes. These outfits are usually appropriate for both dinner
and nightclubs.
If you plan on doing some shopping during your tropical getaway, you
will have to pack clothing for that excursion. It is usually not appropriate
to walk in and out of shops in your bathing suit so you might want to
bring along comfortable clothing that can be worn over your bathing
suit for when you want to go into town to do some shopping. Short and
t-shirts are usually appropriate for both men and women and women can
also wear skirts, sundresses or cover ups over their bathing suits.
In addition to your clothing and beach items you should also pack a
toiletry bag. Here you can include items such as a hairbrush, toothpaste,
your toothbrush, cosmetics and anything else you might need. Most likely
you can pick up these items in the resort gift shop but he items may
be very expensive if you purchase them there so it is better to try
to remember to pack these items.
You don’t need to pack much for a tropical getaway but you should take
care to ensure that you are properly prepared for all occasions. Clothing,
entertainment items and toiletries are some of the most basic items
that you may need during your trip.

How
I get free airline tickets & travel on a shoestring
budget...
|
Myth:
Cheapest fares are always found online.
Truth:
Wrong. Many of the wholesale airline contracts are prohibited
from being marketed on a website. If you're only searching Expedia,
Orbitz, Travelocity and the like, you're not seeing all the
really discounted fares that are available.
Myth:
Buying direct from the airlines is good.
Truth:
Wrong again. You just eliminated the possibility of buying a
consolidator airfare, which is almost always cheaper than anything
the airlines offer, and, the cheapest airfare are sold
only by travel agencies.
Myth:
The airlines sell off unsold seats cheap at the last minute.
Truth:
This myth can cost you big time or the cancellation of your
plans if you're not willing to pay the exorbitant price the
airlines want to extort from you. Believing this myth proves
you have no clue about the airlines' distribution system.
