These items cover most of your time outdoors without overdoing it.

• Lightweight beach bag
   
• Beach towels (confirm if your condo provides them)

• Sunglasses with case
   
• Wide-brim hat or cap
   
• Flip-flops or water shoes

Orange Beach days are warm and casual. Pack fewer pieces that mix easily.

• 2–3 casual daytime outfits
   
• 1–2 nicer dinner outfits
   
• Comfortable walking sandals or shoes
   
• Light sweater or jacket for evenings
   
• Sleepwear
   
• Undergarments
   

Planning tip: Neutral colors make mixing outfits simple.

Condo kitchens are great, but they’re often minimally stocked.

• Reusable grocery bags and trash bags
   
• Basic seasonings (salt, pepper, oil)
   
• Coffee or tea supplies you prefer.  Make sure the condo has a coffee maker and what type of machine.
   
• Reusable water bottles
   
• Snack containers
   

A quick grocery stop on arrival makes the stay feel easier.  There is a Publix that most people go to  

Most condo stays don’t require:

• Extra shoes
   
• Full-size toiletries
   
• Bulky beach gear
   
• Overplanned outfits
   

Less packing means less stress and easier transitions.
