Tipps für Reisende
Was einpacken?
PCB is very casual.
If you're spending most of your time at the beach, be sure to have plenty of sunblock, a hat and a water bottle. Dress is very casual - shorts and t-shirts, but bring one dressier outfit for evenings at some of the restaurants. If you're here during the winter months, you'll want a light jacket or sweater.

Enjoy the local water sports.
If you like water activities, consider renting a kayak at any of the local water sports shops. Costs are very reasonable. You can kayak along the Grand Lagoon or ask for tips for nearby, safe waterways. The local marinas offer charters for deep sea fishing. Shell Island is one of the area's natural beauties. Rent a whaler, take plenty of food and water and a beach umbrella, and enjoy a day on a tranquil island.
