Sailing Holiday Packing Check List

Download: Packing Guide for Your Caribbean Yacht Charter

11th September 2017

Your yacht charter is booked. Now you need to pack!

You will be surprised how little you actually need when on a yacht charter in the Caribbean. We suggest keeping it to a minimum especially given:

  • Most sailing yachts, including SY Nemo, are very spacious. However, there is limited storage space, so it is advisable to bring soft canvas bags, without wheels
  • Most of the time you will outside enjoying the warm winter sunshine
  • The Caribbean is very relaxed and informal – no ball gowns required!
  • It is pretty warm at night too, so you won’t need those woolly pyjamas 😉

Consider packing the following:

  • Clothes that can be layered and that you don’t mind wearing a couple of times. Clothes made from quick-dry fabrics that include sun protection are ideal, like these Helly Hansen shirts available from Sailm8.com
  • One or two outfits for going ashore in the evening
  • Multiple bathing suits
  • Something to protect you from the sun when you are snorkelling, kayaking and paddleboarding. An old T-shirt you don’t mind getting wet will do
  • A hat that will stay on when we are heading into the wind
  • Sunscreen and sunglasses
  • Shoes you need for going ashore. Note that many boats have a no-shoe policy on board, including SY Nemo, unless they are new shoes with non-marking soles that have not previously been worn on land, like these from SailM8
