Fort Myers Beach Vacation Tip: What to Pack for the Beach

Congratulations! You’ve made the decision to get away from the stress of life and treat yourself to a beautiful beach vacation! But, before you set out on your travels, you need to make sure you have some “beach essentials” that will allow you to enjoy your vacation to the fullest.


We’re giving you the inside scoop on beach fashion, making sure you don’t weigh down your suitcase with things you don’t need! The following attire is basically acceptable anywhere you go on the beach, including restaurants, bars, shops, etc. Here are a few things we suggest:

Ladies should pack:

• Bathing suits (If you have 2, bring both so you’ll always have one that’s dry. Also, you will most likely be leaving with a tan! So, be mindful of styles that may give you funny looking tan lines.)
• Bathing suit cover up
• Sundresses
• Tank tops or short sleeved, lightweight shirts
• Comfortable shorts or skirts
• One lightweight, long sleeved shirt (if you’ve been swimming & sunning all day, sometimes the air conditioning inside can feel chilly)
• Flip flops that can get wet or water shoes
• Flip flops or sandals for going out in the evening (leave the heels at home! Sandals are acceptable anywhere on Fort Myers Beach)

Men should pack:

• Hawaiian or lightweight, breezy shirts
• T-Shirts or Polos
• Swim trunks
• Lightweight shorts or khakis, (some men wear jeans in the bars at night, but shorts are always more comfortable)
• One lightweight, long sleeved shirt
• Flip flops that can get wet or water shoes
• Flip flops or deck shoes for going out in the evening
  

Everyone Should Bring:

• Sunglasses
• Sunscreen
• Lip Balm
• Spending Cash (the beach shopping is great!)
• A desire to relax and have FUN!

Now that you’re all packed and ready to go, keep reading our Blog for more tips on what to do once you arrive in “paradise”! To check out the best Ft Myers Beach Vacation rentals, visit www.BeachAccommodations.com or call 1-877-BEACH-IT!
