I'm not going without a book/ereader.

And multiple cameras.

(Edit) particularly for the reader, I should mention "be careful of sand" and maybe have one of those little duster cans around to make sure the ports are clear. But it's too much of what I value in between soaking in the water to not bring.)

Do you have a good way to read without the screen being too dim / too bright? Oh maybe I'll need sunglasses

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I think they mean eink ebook reader, which would be fine in the bright sun.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah that solves the dim problem. And I do remember putting on sunglasses to read books if they are too bright as well

[–] conciselyverbose 3 points 2 months ago

I use sunglasses in super bright light, whether books or ereader. They both reflect similarly.

On the mentioning of cameras if you're bringing an expensive one also bring a camera cleaning kit and a clean bag for your camera

Just to make sure you don't get sand in your camera
