Outfits and Personal Belongings
Remember it's a tropical island. At best you're required to wear tropical elegance in an upscale restaurant. Casinos require pants, dress shoes and a shirt, but a tie is not a necessity.
We suggest beach wear, light summer outfits for daytime shopping, shorts, t-shirts, blouses and shirts will do fine and some elegant slacks, shirts, dresses and shoes for the evening activities. Too much skin in towns and stores is still frowned upon.
Limit personal belongings as well. No need to show off your Rolex if the only thing you need is a simple water resistant watch to tell time. And even then….time is different in the tropics and Happy Hour starts when you want it to start. Personal belongings that need to be watched constantly are a strong deterrent for a pleasant vacation.
