What should I pack when moving to Cancun?

Answer this Question

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

"When moving to Cancun, it's important to pack lightweight clothing due to the tropical climate. This includes items like shorts, t-shirts, tank tops, and sundresses. You should also pack a few swimsuits for the beach and pool, as well as a hat and sunglasses for sun protection. Don't forget to bring a good pair of walking shoes or sandals for exploring the city and its surroundings. In terms of toiletries, pack travel-sized items to start, but remember that most things can be purchased locally. However, if you have specific brands or products you can't live without, it's a good idea to bring them with you. Pack any necessary medications and a basic first aid kit. If you wear glasses or contact lenses, bring an extra pair and solution. Bring all necessary documents such as your passport, driver's license, and any other identification. Also, bring copies of important documents like your birth certificate, medical records, and insurance information. If you plan on working or studying, bring any necessary materials like your laptop, notebooks, and pens. Pack a few items to make your new place feel like home, such as photos, small keepsakes, or your favorite books. Lastly, remember to pack a reusable water bottle, a good book for the journey, and a sense of adventure," wrote a member who made the move to Cancun, Mexico.
