Essentials for Your Caravan:

  1. Documentation: Don’t forget your driver’s license, registration papers, insurance details, and any necessary permits for your campervan.
  2. First Aid Kit: Ensure your kit is well-stocked with essentials like band-aids, antiseptics, pain relievers, insect repellent, and any personal medications.
  3. Toolbox: Pack a basic toolkit for any unexpected repairs or adjustments that might be needed on the road.
  4. Maps and GPS: While technology is your friend, having physical maps as a backup can be a lifesaver (especially in the more remote areas!)

Caravan Comfort:

  3. Footwear: Include sneakers or walking shoes for hikes and explorations beyond the beach.

Technology and Essentials:

  1. Chargers: Ensure you have chargers for your phones, cameras, laptops, and any other devices you plan to use.
  2. Power Adapters: If you’re travelling internationally, bring power adapters that are compatible with your devices.
  3. Power Banks: Keep power banks handy for on-the-go charging, especially in areas with limited access to electricity.

Environmental Responsibility:

  1. Reusable Items: Choose reusable water bottles, shopping bags, and food containers to minimize your environmental impact.
  2. Eco-Friendly Toiletries: Opt for eco-friendly and biodegradable toiletries to protect the beauty of the beach environment.
