(Also see this discussion on bringing sunscreens to Hawaii.) Whether you check the sunscreen in your luggage or carry it on board the aircraft with you, always put it in a zip-lock container in case it leaks in transit. Remember that if the container is larger than 3.4 oz, you will have to check your luggage.

See this post on the importance of sunscreen in Hawaii and how to avoid a sunburn. The sun’s rays are exceptionally strong there. I can’t emphasize enough how important it is to wear a high SPF sunscreen in Hawaii. Which ever sunscreen you choose, make sure it does not contain Oxybenzone, which bleaches and kills Hawaii’s coral. It comes in 3 oz container sizes and is relatively in expensive. It blends very well, especially for a high zinc, mineral-based sunscreen.

We have tried many sunscreens in Hawaii, our favorite is ThinkSport.

Bring sunscreen, with an SPF that is higher than what you would normally wear on the mainland.

Sunglasses, ideally polarized sunglasses are best in Hawaii.

To save packing space, I generally try to wear these on the plane ride to Hawaii. Several Hawaii vacation activities either require or are best done in long trousers– like horseback riding, ziplining, hiking over lava, upcountry visiting/hiking, ATV tours, etc.

Long trousers, preferably moisture wicking and quick drying are useful to have.

Some tours, like horseback riding and ATVs require closed-toe shoes. They’re great to wear for sightseeing and unexpected, short treks over lava rocks or dirt paths.

A hiking sandal with a closed-toe is very multi-functional for Hawaii as we describe in this post.

If you plan to spend a lot of time in the ocean, you might want to bring reef shoes or a hiking sandal – which we describe in more detail below.

For the pool and beach, you’ll likely need a shoe like a flip flop.

Bring a swimsuit cover-up as most resorts request that you modestly cover up while in lobbies and common areas other than the pool and beach.

Bring two swimsuits per person so that you will always have a dry (or at least dry-ish) suit to wear.

If you are staying or visiting in any of the uplands/upcountry areas like, Koele in Lanai City, Kula and Haleakala on Maui, Volcano on the Big Island and Waimea Canyon on Kauai, you’ll definitely want to bring a light sweater. You’ll probably want to have a sweater or jacket just for the plane ride over. Bring a light jacket (ideally a breathable, rainproof jacket) or sweater.

Hawaii is generally warm year-round, but sometimes you might encounter a short cold spell when visiting in the winter months.

Note that the above photo on the right shows me holding all the clothes I packed for a 17-day Hawaii vacation. Please read my articles on why it benefits you to pack light and practical strategies to pack light.

It saves so much time, effort and airline charges for checked luggage. While we’re on this topic of what type of clothes to pack, I want to encourage you to pack light.

When I call to make the reservations, I ask what the dress code is.

When possible, I like to make my dinner reservations about a week or more before I leave for Hawaii. We’ve seen plenty of people out to dinner in shorts and a nice t-shirt. (See our posts with photos showing resort wear for Hawaii for women and examples of Hawaii resort wear for men.) Most restaurants are pretty casual and don’t make a big deal over it. Ladies may want to wear casual skirts, sun dresses, capri pants, shorts, etc. So what does resort wear mean? Men might want to wear shorts or khaki trousers and a short-sleeved, collared shirt. Most places will say “resort wear” is their dress code.

For dinners, you really don’t need to get dressed up for the vast majority of restaurants.

If you have a choice of colors, choose lighter shades that are cooler to wear on warm, sunny days.

Ideally, we recommend wearing moisture-wicking, quick-drying clothes as they’ll dry quickly if you get caught out in a rain shower, plus they dissipate perspiration more quickly. For example, shorts and t-shirts are fine for day time wear. In this article, I wanted to share my best tips for what to pack for your Hawaii vacation.

After many visits to all the islands of Hawaii, I’ve become a bit of a pro for packing for Hawaii vacations.
