Did You Find Treasure Sailing?
What You Actually Need (and Might Forget Until It’s Too Late)
A handy (and slightly dramatic) checklist so you don’t end up borrowing sunscreen from strangers named Chad.
MOST IMPORTANT ITEM
☐ Sense of adventure
☐ Winning attitude
☐ Readiness for an unforgettable week in paradise with the best people
☐ Passport (very important… they frown upon “I swear I’m me”)
☐ Any required travel documents
☐ Boarding passes / confirmations
☐ Wallet + ID
☐ Sunscreen (SPF 30+… we’re going for glow, not “crispy”)
☐ 2 pairs of sunglasses (because one will fall into the ocean)
☐ Hat or visor (or both if you’re feeling dramatic)
☐ Swimsuits (at least 2… wet swimsuits are a personality test.)
☐ Cover-ups
☐ Sun shirts
☐ Themed night outfits:
☐ Black & White (classy yacht vibes)
☐ Tie Dye (chaotic beach energy)
☐ Flamingo (no explanation needed )
☐ Light jacket or sweatshirt (highly unlikely… but we like to pretend we’re responsible)
☐ Sandals
☐ Water shoes (for when rocks choose violence)
☐ Snorkel mask (ONLY if you plan to actually snorkel… no pressure)
☐ Dry bag
☐ Quick-dry towel (for beach days)
Boat provides: towels, sheets, pillows, blankets, and snorkeling fins (luxury level: achieved)
☐ Hand soap (yes, really)
☐ Shampoo & conditioner
☐ Body wash
☐ Face wash
☐ Toothbrush & toothpaste (please… for everyone’s sake)
☐ Personal medications
☐ Hairbrush/comb
☐ Hair ties/clips
☐ Makeup (optional, the ocean doesn’t judge)
☐ Insulated drink cup (Yeti, Stanley, or your emotional support tumbler)
☐ Reusable water bottle
☐ Phone charger
☐ Portable battery pack (because your phone will be at 2% during sunset pics)
Money Matters (a.k.a. Pay the People Who Keep You Floating)
☐ Cash in small bills: $1, $5, $10, $20
(for taxis, tips, mooring balls, garbage… glamorous stuff)
☐ Blow dryer
☐ Curling iron / straightener

☐ Cards
☐ Travel games
☐ Dominoes
☐ Favorite party game
☐ Your best jokes
☐ Harmless pranks (keep it friendly, not “we lost a friend” level)
☐ Trivia questions
Island laughs are highly encouraged.
☐ Aloe vera (for when you ignored the sunscreen section)
☐ Motion sickness remedies (just in case your sea legs are… imaginary)
☐ Lip balm with SPF
☐ Bluetooth speaker
☐ Waterproof camera / GoPro
☐ Zip bags for wet clothes (aka “the soggy suitcase saver”)
Final Tip: If you forgot something… just say it’s “part of the experience.”
Now go pack like a pro and prepare for sun, sea, and stories you’ll laugh about forever
