Travel gadgets? When you travel, comfort is very important. It’s a good idea to travel with light luggage, but always pack the essentials. To avoid last-minute shopping, here are some useful gadgets (besides your smartphone) that you can take on your next vacation in Cancun.
Universal Power Adapter
If you’re traveling from outside Mexico, the power outlets might be different from the ones in your country. In Mexico, we use Type A and Type B plugs. So, if your charger plug is different, we recommend bringing a universal power adapter. This way, you can always charge your phone or other gadgets during your stay in Cancun.
Noise-Canceling Headphones
Noise-canceling headphones are a great travel investment. You won’t only use them while traveling — they’re great for everyday life too.
They are very comfortable and help reduce airplane noise, like other passengers talking or babies crying. You can relax, sleep better, or just enjoy your favorite playlist with peace and quiet.
Bluetooth Adapter for Airplanes
For more comfort, you can bring a Bluetooth adapter. This small device allows you to connect your wireless headphones to the airplane’s entertainment system, so you don’t need to use wired headphones.
USB Flash Drive
Always carry a USB flash drive during your trips. It’s very useful in many situations. You can save digital copies of important documents like your passport, flight tickets, hotel reservation, or backup your travel photos. They are small, light, and easy to carry.
Portable Power Bank
It’s always a bad moment when your phone runs out of battery during your trip, especially if you use it to talk with family and friends or take pictures of the beautiful Caribbean beaches. A power bank is one of the most important travel gadgets. It helps you stay connected anytime, anywhere.
Tip: You can also find solar power banks that charge with sunlight — perfect for your vacation in Cancun!
Waterproof Phone Case
A waterproof phone case is a must-have for your next trip to the Riviera Maya. With so many water activities, your phone needs protection in case it falls or gets wet.
If you want to take photos without worrying about water, another good option is a GoPro camera — perfect for beach vacations and underwater adventures!
Tablet
Some people think a tablet is too much to bring on a trip. But actually, it’s very comfortable to use for reading, browsing the internet, or chatting from your beach chair while you enjoy a cold drink.
For those who love reading and bring many books, a tablet is a smart way to save space and weight in your luggage.
Action Camera
For adventure days — like snorkeling or ziplining — an action camera is perfect.
Cameras like the GoPro are waterproof and can record high-definition videos. Just imagine recording marine life while snorkeling in Cancun. These cameras help you keep amazing memories from every moment of your vacation.
Portable Wi-Fi Router
There are many hidden places in the Riviera Maya, like Tulum or Punta Allen, where it’s hard to find a strong internet signal. For digital travelers, staying connected is important. That’s why, if you plan to visit a more remote area, we recommend bringing a portable Wi-Fi router.
This way, you can enjoy the natural beauty of these locations without losing your connection to the digital world.
