HOW TO PACK:

In Jamaica, just about anything goes. You're on vacation, so you shouldn't be restricted to rigid dress codes. Pack as light as possible, one large suitcase not exceeding 70 pounds or approximately 32kgs is preferred with a carry-on for necessary medications, cosmetics or other valuables.

WHAT TO BRING:

Since the Caribbean is in the tropics, the forecast looks sunny and warm all year round. So whatever time of year it is, pack for summer. Casual wear such as shorts, tank tops, short sleeved shirts, sundresses and light slacks are perfect fashion. Also bring lots of bathing suits, cover-ups and comfortable shoes for fun.

Also, the shops sell sundries, tobacco, perfume and more. Duty free shopping is available on the island as well as at the airport.
