What should I pack when moving to Utila?

"When moving to Utila, it's important to pack lightweight, breathable clothing due to the tropical climate. Include a mix of shorts, t-shirts, and swimwear, as well as a few long-sleeved shirts and long pants to protect against mosquitoes. A light rain jacket is also a good idea, as it can rain unexpectedly. Don't forget to pack sturdy shoes for hiking and flip-flops for the beach. A hat, sunglasses, and plenty of sunscreen are also essential to protect against the sun. Bring your own snorkeling or diving gear if you have it, as Utila is known for its fantastic underwater life. Pack all necessary toiletries, including insect repellent and any prescription medications you may need. It's also a good idea to bring a basic first aid kit. Remember to pack your passport, driver's license, and any other necessary identification. Also, bring copies of important documents, such as your birth certificate and insurance policies. If you plan on cooking, consider packing some of your favorite spices or non-perishable food items, as they may be hard to find on the island. Lastly, pack a Spanish-English dictionary or phrasebook, as not everyone on the island speaks English," explained one expat living in Utila, Honduras.
