What should I pack when moving to Providencia Island?

Answer this Question

We asked people living in Providencia Island to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...

"When moving to Providencia Island, make sure to pack your passport, visa, and other essential travel documents. Bring along lightweight, breathable clothing for the tropical climate, as well as a few warmer layers for cooler evenings. Don't forget a swimsuit, sunscreen, and a hat for sun protection, as well as insect repellent to ward off mosquitoes. Pack comfortable walking shoes or sandals, and consider bringing a pair of water shoes for exploring the island's beaches and coral reefs. Bring any necessary prescription medications, a basic first aid kit, and any personal toiletries you may need. It's also a good idea to pack a reusable water bottle, a waterproof phone case, and a portable charger for your electronic devices. Finally, bring a camera or smartphone to capture memories of your time on the beautiful island," remarked another expat in Providencia Island, Colombia.
