Luggage and bags: it's pretty expensive here... bring an umbrella during the rainy season and ALWAYS bring a flashlight... its good to have at night for the roads... so you dont step in potholes... and during the rainy season so you dont step into a RIVER hahah...

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: depending on how nice your hotel is... bring flipflops you can take a shower in just incase... bring sneakers for the tours... LIGHT clothing... no thick shirts... flowy skirts are a good idea...

Photo Equipment: little cameras at the store are expensive... bring digital camera and go to Mr. Tom's and get them put on a CD to store them.

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: dont bring a beach towel just buy one here... we got one for $8 and its also something to have for a souvenier!!!

Miscellaneous: :) bring bathingsuit... duh! ;)
