Luggage and bags: There are laundries here so pack lightly. Our luggage was delayed 3 days from usa, so pack complete change of clothing in your carry-on

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: We were here during the rainy season, bring an umbrella, if not for the rain, to shade yourself from the sun. Comfortable walking shoes a must.

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Bring all your own meds including any over -the - counter items you may need. Pharmacies do not sell all products that are available in usa.

Photo Equipment: We had a digital camera, but saw lots of Fuji photo stores that sold disposable camreas, film and offered film developing

Miscellaneous: the weater here was hot and humid, leave the shorts at home, crop pants work well.
