  • Any type of luggage is fine, as long as the airlines accept it.

    Pack mostly casual clothes, and perhaps a dressy outfit for a night out. In the wintertime, you might bring a sweater, although the temps rarely get cold enough to wear a coat.

    All you need for the beach is a swimming suit and towel. If you are going camping, would advise bringing a good insect repellent.

  • BRING YOUR SUNSCREEN!! Where in Florida are you not going to need it?! Sunglasses and money.

    shorts, bathing suit, a sweater just in case it's cold.

    A visit to Palm Beach wouldn't be complete without a water excursion, either a dinner and casino cruise, a narrated sight seeing trip, or a sailing adventure on a catamaran.

    Humidity vs AC

  • If you are visiting anywhere in South Florida, the thing you should always remember is: it is 98 degrees with 98% humidity OUTSIDE....and 65 degrees INSIDE!!! We keep the electical companies in business. So what that means is bring your coolest shirts, shorts and pants...and then pack a sweater!

    Toiletries all accounted for..this is a big city. Due to the fact that Doctors are a dime a dozen here, the medical supplies and services available are extremely abundant, so if you run out, it will be ok.

    Definately. The west coast has the awesome sunsets, but we have the awesome sunrises.

    Virtually no camping in the city, so the outdoor gear would be for the beach. And, please believe me....you WILL burn!! So, if you are not coming from a tropical country, and don't bring strong (30SPF-45SPF) sunscreen, after your first day at the beach, you will be miserable for the rest of your stay--we see it all the time. Either bring or buy a hat that will shade your face, drink as much water as you can, and be extremely careful between 12 noon and about 3-3:30 pm. Most people wear coverups over their bathing suits, but unless you are going in to public eating places, a lot of people dont. A big beach towel is not necessary since there are so many at such inexpensive prices here, but bring a bag to the beach to keep the keys, camera, etc. in, as the sand gets EVERYWHERE!!!

    Summertime is the rainy season, so it downpours every morning and every afternoon for about an hour or two. Winter time there is very little rain.

    Sunscreen is a must!

  • Because it's usually hot here, you can probably get away with fewer and smaller bags/luggage.

    Reason being, you'll need to pack a couple swimsuits, shorts, lightweight pants & skirts, T-shirts,a lightweight jacket MAYBE. For day, flip flops. For evening, if you're into clubs and whatnot, a couple of sexy tops, nicer jeans, cute skirts, for men nice pants and collared shirts- bring a pair of nicer shoes too.

    Sunscreen, possibly insect repellent as we do have mosquitos sometimes, if you get sea sick how about some motion sickness pills too because water sports and boating abound here.

    your beach towel... you can rent floats, chairs and umbrellas at some beaches.

    a great book/magazines to read when you're lounging on the beach
