"When moving to Jeffreys Bay, you should pack a variety of clothing suitable for warm and cooler weather, as the climate can vary. This includes lightweight clothing for the summer months, as well as warmer clothing for the cooler months. Don't forget to pack a good quality sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses to protect yourself from the strong African sun. You should also pack a good pair of walking shoes or hiking boots if you plan on exploring the local area, as well as beachwear and a towel if you plan on enjoying the beautiful beaches. A waterproof jacket or umbrella could also come in handy for the occasional rainy day. If you take any prescription medication, make sure to bring enough to last for your initial period in the country, as well as any necessary paperwork or prescriptions. It's also a good idea to pack a basic first aid kit, including items such as band-aids, antiseptic cream, and pain relief medication. Don't forget to pack all necessary travel documents, including your passport, visa documents, and any other identification you may need. It's also a good idea to bring copies of these documents, just in case. If you plan on using electronic devices, remember to pack the necessary chargers and adapters, as the plug sockets in South Africa may be different from those in your home country. Lastly, consider packing some personal items that will make your new place feel like home, such as photos, favorite books, or small keepsakes," remarked another expat who made the move to Jeffreys Bay, South Africa.
