Short-notice holidays are sometimes the most memorable, but can be spoiled by forgetting to pack that one thing you needed.

The clothes you might need for this summer beach holiday, after packing your your toiletries are:
- shorts.
- T-shirts.
- Swimsuit.
- Flip-flops.
- Comfortable dresses.
- An extra set of “good clothes” and shoes for going out.
- Enough underwear.
- Two sets of warm clothes for the unexpected cold front.
