Nice to have

9 items you could skip
Temperatures stay between 73°F and 82°F year-round, so legs stay bare.
Doubles as a towel, a scarf, and a cover-up where one's expected.
Salt spray and 11 UV index crack lips within days.
Tap water is safe, but surfaces and shared items need cleaning.
Sunburned skin swells, so regular itch relief won't work on it.
Humidity at 70% corrodes connectors, so short cables fail first.
Domestic travel still requires locks on checked luggage here.
Salt spray and sunscreen residue coat everything you touch.
Long daylight hours and jet lag mean sleep becomes precious.
