What should I pack when moving to Montego Bay?
We asked people living in Montego Bay to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"1. I wish I had gone to Dollarama and stocked up on spices and kitchen stuff. It pains me to spend $8-$10 on items I know I could get for free. 2. I brought a TV, but wish I had shipped both. Electronics are crazy expensive here. 3. Sheets, bedding, towels. I packed light so I didn't bring too much of anything. I had already read from others not to bring too much clothing and I'm glad I didn't," commented one expat who made the move to Montego Bay, Jamaica.

"When moving to Montego Bay, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the tropical climate. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing such as shorts, t-shirts, and sundresses. Bring a hat and sunglasses to protect yourself from the sun. Bring comfortable shoes for walking and exploring the city. Don't forget to pack a swimsuit and beach towel for days spent at the beach. Bring a light jacket or sweater for cooler evenings. Additionally, it is important to bring any necessary medications and toiletries," remarked another expat in Montego Bay, Jamaica.
