Prepare his baggage

• Favour a big backpack or a supple baggage. You will not have occasion to use the wheels of your suitcase and it’s easier to transport in the 4×4.
• A little backpack for the visiting day. We suggest you to bring a waterproof backpack or cover to protect your materials in case of rain (rainy season in November to March), the same for your documents.

The document that you mustn’t forget:

• Your passport up to date
• Your international or national flight ticket
• Your repatriation insurance contract/cost of first assistance
• Your vaccination book not obligatory
• Your blood group if it’s possible

Your clothes:

• April to October, bring warm clothes: a pullover or micro down jacket, trousers and sock and a scarf because night are fresh especially in “Hautes Terres”.
• Clothes for trekking and sport activities, generally: a pair of shoes where you are comfortable inside and raincoat if you have.
• Waterproof jacket like K-way or gore-tex.
• Your beach uniform, swimsuit, short or dress.
• A hat or a cap
• If you have still place, you can bring a denim pants to go to the restaurant or to walk in the street, a pair of tong and basket.

Medicines and hygiene:

• First aid-kit
• Sanitary towel or tampon for women, it’s difficult to find it there.
• Antibacterial product and wipe
• Anti-mosquito or lemongrass to protect you against the bite
• Solar cream with rather high sign ( minimum 30)
• A pair of sunglasses
• Biodegradable washing powder when you need washing clothes

Others:

• Camera to take fantastic souvenir. Camera with many lenses is better for animals. Now, there is  good compact, easier to carry and discreet in a big town.
• Solar battery or spare battery to your camera
• Notebook and pencil to write your impression
• For adventurers  who will sleep in  bivouac: knife multi-function, flashlight, sleeping bag and why not inflatable pillow.
