What to Pack for Your Hawaii Vacation (2025) + Downloadable List
We get no satisfaction from watching people overpack for a trip to Hawaii. But, with so much to see and do on the Hawaiian Islands, we understand why you might pack too much. As a frequent visitor to Hawaii and a former resident who loved to island-hop, here is what to pack for your trip to Hawaii in 2025.
Your essential packing list for Hawaii includes the following:
Shorts and T-shirts
One Gorgeous Island Style Outfit
Comfortable Footwear: sandals and hiking or walking shoes
Swimsuit (of course)
Sun-Protective Clothing
Mineral-Based Sunscreen
UV-Protective Sunglasses (we love these!)
Backpack (we’ve been using this one as it’s easy to pack)
Water Bottle (our whole family uses these)
Beach Bag (we have this zippered one)
Natural Bug Repellent (Kauai)
Warm Clothes (Maui and Big Island)
