- 1). Pack travel documents. Before thinking about what clothes and shoes to pack, start with organizing all of the travel documents you will need, and place them in a secure compartment in the handbag you plan to use on the day of travel. In addition to plane tickets and your driver's license, pack your passport. It is a good idea to make a photocopy of your passport and bring it with you in separate luggage in the event you lose your passport while abroad. Prescriptions should also be packed in their original bottle with the prescription listed on the outside.
- 2). Pack casual clothes and shoes for use during the day. Honeymooning in Jamaica is all about sun, sand and relaxation. Tanks and t-shirts, khakis and shorts and sundresses should all be brought and can be dressed up with jewelry, a nice purse or other accessories. These items pack well because they are not bulky allowing you to bring an array of colors and styles. If necessary, pack a pair of jeans, but if you can go without them, leave them at home. In a tropical climate, jeans can look out of place.
- 3). Pack one to two formal outfits. It is your honeymoon and the odds are that you will spend a few evening evenings out celebrating with your new spouse. A little black dress is a must because it is classic, modern and versatile. Another option is to pack a sophisticated jumpsuit or a pair of black pants and a flowy top. Also include a light sweater or jacket in your luggage for cool nights.
- 4). Pack two bathing suits. Honeymoons in Jamaica are frequently spent in or near the water. At least one of the bathing suits should be one that can be worn if you decide to participate in any water sports. The other bathing suit can be on the trendier side if you plan on wearing it to sit by the pool or on the beach.
- 5). Pack a variety of shoes. Shoes are bulky and take up significant space in a suitcase. The good news is that for a honeymoon in Jamaica, you need fewer formal shoes and more casual footwear. Bring at least one pair of fancy sandals or espadrilles and a pair of flip-flops. One pair of heels that matches each evening outfit should be packed. It is also a good idea to pack one pair of sneakers that can be worn while walking and sightseeing.
