What To Bring & Wear

The weather is looking superb for November with the average temperature expected to be 28^C most days so please pack your bags with this in mind.  Bring your usual travel items such as cameras, toiletries, insect repellent, etc. And of course, don’t forget chargers for any devices you bring. Due to safety concerns and the proximity of the airport, drones are not permitted on Hamilton Island, including the surrounding waters so please leave those at home.
