DISCLAIMER: Sorry to the men, I wrote this packing list from a lady’s perspective, so please adjust accordingly. This was also written for the Greece Route, but would be almost exactly the same for Croatia. I imagine the other routes are similar!

Travel Bag

** Pack in a cloth duffel bag or backpack that can be condensed. NO hard shell suitcases that don’t get smaller, as they take up valuable space on the boat. I recommend a 40-50 liter backpack, as it’s easier to travel with!

Travel Clothes

I recommend that you travel wearing something similar to the following, so you’ll have it for the rest of your trip in case it were to get cold at night — the rest of the packing list will be assuming the weather will be hot.

Clothes for the Week

⬜️ 2-3 pairs of shorts or skirts you can wear with multiple tops

⬜️ 5-6 “summertime” tops (light, breathable), rompers, or dresses — things you can wear around town during the day

⬜️ 1 nice dinner outfit (think long dresses with slits, or flowy ones, classy mini dress, etc.)

⬜️ 1 final night party outfit (skirts and tops, mini dresses, shorts and crops — really whatever you want but a little elevated from your daytime lewks)

⬜️ 1-2 pairs of flat sandals 

⬜️ 1 pair of shoes that you can wear with all your nice outfits (heeled sandals or dressy flat sandals for girls — make sure these are comfy, I recommend a block heel, def not stiletto)

⬜️ At least 1 pair of sunglasses (I recommend ones you don’t care about)

⬜️ At least 1 hat (baseball cap is better than straw hat while sailing, but up to you if you only want to wear it while docked)

⬜️ 7+ swimsuits (literally the limit does not exist on the amount of swimsuits you should bring.)

⬜️ Light pajamas

⬜️ 8+ pairs of underwear

⬜️ Bras if you wear them

⬜️ OPTIONAL: workout outfit if you plan to do yoga when TYW offers it (recommend shorts and sports bra or tank, not leggings)

⬜️ Outfits/Accessories for each of your themes (TYW usually has two and our group always adds 2-3 of our own)

Toiletries

⬜️ Your normal makeup & necessities << waterproof mascara, removers, deodorant, toothbrush, etc.

⬜️ Hair products to wear your hair without heat styling

⬜️ Shower necessities in travel sized containers – shampoo, conditioner, razor, shave cream, body wash

⬜️ Sunscreen + After Sun Care

⬜️ Lip Balm with SPF

⬜️ Anti-nausea medication, ibuprofen, Liquid IV, or whatever meds you think you may need

Essentials

⬜️ European Adapter

⬜️ Phone Charger

Optional

⬜️ Floatie – highly recommend bringing one!!

⬜️ Handheld mirror (to avoid getting ready in hot bathrooms)

⬜️ Battery Pack for Phone

⬜️ Disposable Underwater Camera, GoPro or any other camera you feel comfortable bringing

⬜️ Reusable Water Bottle

⬜️ Easy to pack games (small card games, etc.)

⬜️ Ridiculous photo-worthy accessories (like wigs, or the infamous mankini!)

⬜️ Small battery-powered fan

⬜️ Water-proof phone case

⬜️ 12V air pump

⬜️ Small backpack or purse

Documents

⬜️ Valid Passport

⬜️ Negative COVID Test or Vaccine Card upon arrival (check requirements of both your airline and TYW before you leave!)

⬜️ Local currency (you can do this at the airport before you leave. The amount will depend on your route, and TYW will give you an idea of extra costs.)
