Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Loose-fitting clothing (cotton is best), open-toed sandals. Be sure to include aqua socks or protective footgear for walking on the coral reef and in the lagoon. Along with a hat, don't forget to pack a good pair of sunglasses.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Bring a good sunscreen and insect repellent
Photo Equipment: Keep in mind that daylight is very intense in the tropics. Use a polarisation or UV filter and bring a waterproof bag to protect your camera from salt and spray during boat trips.
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: Snorkelling equipment
Miscellaneous: Bring an adapter if you don't have a French plug with two round prongs.
