A Few Packing Habits That Save Trips
Pack as if the water will find your bag. A small dry bag for your phone, cash and ID matters more on a boat day than anything else on this list. Carry cash in small bills too, since tricycles, boatmen and environmental fees are often cash only, and ATMs on smaller islands can run out on weekends.
Keep one spare day in any trip that depends on boats, especially from June to November, when weather can cancel crossings. Our island hopping safety guide explains what to check before you board, and the arrival guide covers eTravel, SIM cards and cash for your first day.
