  • Socks, long maxi dresses, kaftans, skirts or trousers are essential for wearing at dusk when the mood is relaxed. This is also the time when the mosquitoes are most active – you want to make sure you’re covered up to avoid getting bitten.
  • Bring several bikinis or swimsuits (pack according to your comfort). Carry both, so you can alternate between them and avoid any skin rashes from the salt water.
  • A big hat to keep the sun off, and for covering your face during the occasional naps on the beach while sun bathing.
  • If you’re traveling to Bali in monsoon season (that is anywhere between October to April), be prepared for heavy downpours.
