Tech Must Haves
Apple Air Tags- I put these in my checked luggage, carryon, and my pack that holds my cash and passport
Waterproof Air Tag Holders-These are great to put your air tags in and gives it a clip to attach it to your bags
Go Pro 10- You need something to capture the memories with! This camera is great as a camera, video camera, great for the water, action shots, etc.
I have had a few different Go Pros over the years but this one is great- it adds steadying so that your videos aren't as bouncy. They can go in the water as they are- we add a case before we SCUBA dive with this.
Waterproof Phone Case- I love to bring my phone to the pool and the beach, but getting your phone wet or sandy is not the way you want to spend your trip.
This case does NOT float, but that works out better if you want to go underwater.
Portable Charger- This portable charger has the added bonus of being compatible with MagGo cases. If you have a MagGo case great- if not this works well as a charger either way.
This will charge a cell phone from dead to 100% 1 time.
I bring a few of these with me- I can charge an IPad, iPhone, my fan, and have even used it to put a bit of charge on my laptop to finish a project.
Go Pro 10- Bundle- I know I already listed the Go Pro- but this bundle has pretty much everything you need to get started!

Packing Must Haves
Packing Cubes- I never new what I was missing! These are great- they keep your clothes folded neatly- even when TSA rummages through your bag, they help you separate out your clothes- swimwear in one, dressy clothes in another, resort wear in a third.
We have different colors for each person so that we can quickly identify who's clothes we have.
Shoe travel bag- I am not really a shoe person but I always end up bringing at least 3-4 pairs of shoes- this comes in really handy for that.
Ditch the plastic bags but keep your clothes clean- you can put up to three pairs of shoes in this bag.
Don't forget you will need your flip flops- dressy sandals for ladies or close toed shoes for guys for most dinners, sneakers if you are going on excursions, and I always recommend water shoes.
TSA Approved liquid/gel bags- Sure you can just use a quart size baggie- but they don't stand up when you get to your destination, and they don't look great.
Instead use these- I use them for checked and carry on luggage. And even if you are checking a bag- don't forget you need your sunscreen in your carry on- and it needs to be in a bag. I also always recommend bringing anything you might need if your bags don't arrive- think deodorant, toothpaste, etc.
Resort Must Haves
Aloha Zipper Bag- This bag is AWESOME! It is comfortable to carry around, has inner and outer pockets and plenty of space to hold quite a bit of stuff! Depending on how I am travling I have put extra shoes, my ipad, and waterbottle in here or we have had beach toys, pool inflatables, and more inside.
I like to have a few more places to stick things so I add the small pouch listed next so that I
Aloha Small Pouch- This small pouch is perfect to toss some cash for tips, a cell phone, extra charger, and a stick of sunscreen in. It makes it an easy grab if you don't want to carry around a large bag but also don't want to carry a ton of little items.
Added benefit of being water resistant and keeping the sand away from everything!
Sunscreen- I love this one for my face- apply liberally and you don't end up with the white marks or greasy face
Think Sunscreen- This sunscreen is great- while I know me sitting on the beach doesn't constitute SPORT- it is mineral based- which makes me feel better about putting it one me and it has an spf of 50- which is better than alot of the reef safe sunscreens out there.
Better yet it is approved to be used in Hawaii. If you don't know about their sunscreen rules- you may want to read up on it!
Sunscreen for your hair- If you have ever had a sunburn where your hair parts you will know how much you need this product! This product easily sprays on so that you dont have to try to find all of the parts on your scalp that are exposed!
Towel Bands- these are great to hold your towel in place and also as an identifier for which of the chairs was yours.

Traveling With Littles Must Haves
Kids Brush on Sunscreen- If you have ever fought a child to put on sunscreen- especially on their face- this product is a must buy!
With our little blonde haired baby we haven't had any burns with this product so far!
Bogg Bag- Picture this- you are at a resort, and heading to the beach with your toddler- you have two towels, your sunscreen, a drink for the little one, sand toys, some cash for tips for the beachside servers, a hat for the little one that they WONT wear, your phone, some snacks because inevitably they will need one the second you sit down. That is a lot to carry!
This bag has pouches to store the important things- snacks, phones, etc, can be hosed off and the bottom wont let water (sand) in!
Rash guard- I know I am not the only parent out there that has a hard time getting sunscreen on their child- and while these say they are for boys- I see lots of little girls wearing these too.
Remember- the sun is hotter down south- so even if you want to put on sunscreen- these will help protect their skin!
WayB Pico Travel Car Seat- This folds down to the size of a real backpack and my little guy loves it! It is his seat on the plane and in the car. If you dont want to use it on the plane you can always put it in the overhead or under the seat- it is that small- and not have to worry about it under the plane.
iPad holder- I use this for myself and also my toddler- it is great- it is similar to an otter box design and feels well protected.
