  1. Pack sun dresses, shorts,cute tops, and sandals. Leave home jeans, long sleeves, heavy shoes, and heavy makeup. It will be hot and Humid in the Caribbean that time of the year, so no polyester either. Silk and cotton will keep you happy. Bring a cute hat and plenty of sun screen too. Don't over pack with too much shoes and stuff. You can wear the same sandals with a dress as well as shorts too.


  2. clothes

    bathing suit

    toothbrush

    brush

    comb

    a dress or something formal to wear for dinner

    shoes

    toiletries

    camera

  3. Well, I think this is a pretty good 7 day packing checklist:

    In addition to the obvious stuff (bathing suit, outfits for walking around and outfits for going out to dinner), be sure not to forget:

    - Sunscreen - they sell it onboard, but it's expensive and there's not much selection

    - Hat and sunglasses.  It's sunny in the Caribbean!

    - Camera AND battery charger.  Don't want it to run out.

    - Cell phone, but be sure to call your phone company to turn on international roaming. And be aware that it's expen$$$ive, so you might want to turn it off except for emergencies.  (More info on cell phones here: http://www.cruisesavvy.com/savvyguide/kn...

    - Conditioner.  Cruise ships usually have OK shampoo, but they frequently don't have conditioner.

    Hope that helps!

  4. I was 17 when I went last year...i wish i would have asked this question! I didn't bring the things i wish i would have haha. But ok let me try and help you out...

    -At least 2 fancy outfits for the dress up dinners (i thought there was only one on our boat but there actually was 2!)

    -night life clothes (on our boat they had a deck party and its nice to look good if you go to the clubs)

    -makeup

    -sunglasses

    -at least 2 different bikinis

    -extra contacts & your glasses if you wear them (i lost a contact and didnt have another)

    -head bands/scarfs (it looks really cute when you wear it on the beach with your glasses)

    -day clothes (shorts, tanks, skirts ect...its good for walking around on the islands during the day)

    -a bag! (i only brought my regular purse and it was usless.....you should bring like a big shoulder bag bc you'll be carrying alot of stuff)

    -sun block/sun tan lotion

    -cute hats!

    -flip flops for the day

    -bring a few shoes so you have an option for your night outfits (its best to plan out your outfits before you leave for each night)

    -accessories such as jewelry

    -camera/charger

    -razors (although on our boat they already many had new ones for us in the bathrooms & they also had shampoo/conditioner)

    -hair straightener/curler if you use those (but if you have the money i would just go to the salon on the boat)

    -gym shoes just in case u wanna work out

    -a comb/brush (i forgot mine and had to buy)

    -hair ties

    umm ok i think thats it haha....if you have any questions just email me! i would be happy to answer them since were about the same age lol
