It’s very hard to know what to pack when you’re going on a sailing holiday. To make this easier for our guests we’ve created two lists.
The first is the list of items we do suggest you bring and the second is the list of things we already have here for you, so won’t need to bring.

Please note:
As space is limited onboard, you will need to store your luggage in your own cabin. Therefore, a soft, foldable bag is far preferable, as this can be more easily stored –
a hard-shell case is NOT. - It’s always hot here, so there’s really no need to pack much clothing at all.
