What should I pack when moving to Uvita?

Answer this Question

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

"When moving to Uvita, you should pack lightweight clothing due to the tropical climate. Include items such as shorts, t-shirts, and tank tops. Also, pack a few long-sleeved shirts and pants for cooler evenings or for protection against mosquitoes. Swimwear is a must-have item as Uvita is known for its beautiful beaches. Don't forget to pack a good quality sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses to protect yourself from the sun. Rain gear, including a waterproof jacket and umbrella, is essential as Uvita experiences a rainy season. Comfortable walking shoes or hiking boots are necessary if you plan on exploring the local terrain or visiting the nearby national parks. Pack your necessary toiletries, but keep in mind that most items can be purchased locally. If you take prescription medication, bring enough to last for your initial period, along with a copy of your prescription. Bring your important documents such as passport, driver's license, and any necessary visas or permits. Pack a basic first aid kit with band-aids, antiseptic wipes, and any other personal medical supplies you might need. If you plan on cooking, you might want to bring some of your favorite spices or condiments that may not be available locally. Lastly, don't forget to pack your electronics, including your phone, laptop, and chargers. A power adapter may be necessary depending on your current location. Remember, it's always better to pack light and purchase items locally, if possible. This not only makes traveling easier but also supports the local economy," explained one expat living in Uvita, Costa Rica.
