What to pack

What to Pack

Florida is a pretty chill place. Since you will be close to the water, it’s always a good idea to bring a light jacket and comfy shoes. Flip flops are great for the beach and easy to rinse the sand from your toes. Casual beach west is the norm, and dinner is dressy casual.
