What to Bring to Hawaii

Hawaii is the most isolated archipelago in the world, and guess what? We absolutely love the island lifestyle! But you need to be prepared.

So, here are our absolute must-haves for any activity in Hawaii!

Mineral Reef Safe Sunscreen

Our top pick is Project Reef, a locally owned business that uses natural ingredients like avocado and coconut shell for SPF, avoiding harmful chemicals. Plus, we love their commitment to the environment. Every product sold prevents 1lb of waste from reaching the ocean.

Cooling Lotion

There are plenty of cooling lotion options for after sun exposure, but our top pick is Project Reef. Their after-sun products are based on aloe vera, a natural remedy that works wonders for sunburns by providing quick relief and promoting healing. Here are the key benefits:

  • Exfoliates by removing dead skin cells to support healing.
  • Soothes pain by reducing redness and stinging.
  • Moisturizes sunburned skin with its high water content.
  • Prevents peeling by keeping skin hydrated.
  • Eases discomfort with anti-inflammatory properties.
  • Protects against infection with Aloe’s antibacterial qualities.

PRO TIP: Place the Cooling Lotion or Mist in the refrigerator for 15 minutes before applying for an extra refreshing, cooling effect.

Mosquito Repellent

This is a must. You never want to forget it. Trust us!
