I'm going to cancun, what do you suggest i should bring with me that's neccessary that people usually forget?

Question

i'm a dude...lol...just incase u might wanna know

Answer 1

Your brains, Dude!

Answer 2

Anything you need and may forget you can buy there...BUT it will be more expensive and written in spanish (i.e. Sunblock). So keep that in mind. Anyway here's some stuff you may need besides clothing, and toiletries.

Sunblock

Biodegradable sunblock - if you're eco conscious and or thinking about doing a dolphin swim or snorkelling..it's just more environmentally friendly..and again much cheaper if you buy it at home.

Bug Spray - If you plan to visit the ruins

Shades/Sunglasses

Hat

Flip Flops/Slippers/Zories

Swim Wear of course

pretty much that's about it.

Have Fun

Answer 3

u should make a list of the stuff u usally take on a travel.  and right all the stuff and when u get all the stuff u need one by one putting them in the suitcase check them off.

Answer 4

Cancun is now so deprived of it's natural culture it's totally american over there, and full of tourist anything you forget is going to be over there. =] No worries.

Answer 5

You will find everything in Cancun.

I just like to take my own sun glasses and video camera.  

That simple.

Answer 6

THE PERSON ABOVE ME IS TOTALLY CORRECT!  Make sure you're bank...or even credit card company knows this.  Both debit/credit transactions can be denied.  My credit card would have been denied if I didn't say something to them.

Hey man.....I leave in 2 days...and I have this huge fear that i'm going to forget my passport.  Its crazy.   Like I put it in my purse and I get there and its gone because I really left it at home.  AAAAAHHHH!!!!  But, my roomate has traveled may o' times and she says this is normal.  She has it too.  She has to carry a Visa and papers (international student)  

As far as forgeting things...THE PASSPORT!  OH yeah and bring cash...many places like the US dollar expecially when doing excursions.  I'm bringing cash and a credit card.  Are trip is all inclusive but we will need cash for the excursions  (deep sea fishing in Cozumel, Chitchen Itza, and Snuba stuff).  Also when we go to market we want to convert some of our money to peso just to mess around with the currency.

So...Passport and money, bro. Everything else you can purchase at a Wally world (walmart) there.  

Have fun.  I'm so excited myself.

Answer 7

The thing is, if you asked me this question about a year or so ago, I would have given you a completely different answer. This is because the airlines are now charging so much more money for bags that are overweight. Therefore, I agree that sunscreen is a must in the tropical sun, but I would not waste any space or weight by taking it with you. I would however recommend that you do bring bug spray with Deet because it is not available in Cancun, and a product known as Safe Sea. The Safe Sea is important if you plan to do any swimming in the ocean between now and mid June. It is the only product I know about that prevents against rashes caused by baby Thimble Jellyfish, which spawn at this time of year. Aside from that, bring a good hat, contact lens cleaner if you use contacts and anything else you want you can find.

Have fun planning your trip,

Answer 8

I recommend contacting your bank and letting them know you will be out of the country so they can note it on your account.  If you use your debit or credit card, there is a chance it will get flagged as "suspicious" and the charges will be denied.  This happened to a friend of mine while she was on vacation, so I always call my bank before I go.  It would totally suck to be on vacation and not have any spending money.

Answer 9

anything electronic related....if you take a lot of video, like i do, you might want to remember dv tapes. batteries are also a good idea. while you may be able to find dv tapes at walmart they are pricier and usually have been on the shelves a long time.

anything else you might need you can find there...condoms, sunblock, swimming trunks...
