Luggage and bags: You will want to lay out your clothes you want to bring then divide it in half and then see if there is anything you want to leave out. This will help with your desicion of how many bags to take. If you are doing more than just laying on the beach that is.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Good walking shoes or sandals go great here but there is a lot of sand around. The sun can be very strong so be prepared to wear shirts whenever you are away from the beach. It can get cooler at night where a light jacket or sweater may make you more comfortable.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Plenty of sunscreen and aloe lotion. Vacation is the last place to be miserable because of a sunburn.
Photo Equipment: It is very sunny in Rota and southern Spain for that matter. You may find a polarizer helpful. If you are bringing your camera to the beach the air and water are very salty.
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: The water is very clear but you will want to bring a mask or goggles if you plan to do any underwater swimming. The water is very salty.
