Packing List

Pacific Sounds Lodge is situated in a temperate rainforest. Rain resistant baggage for your belongings is recommended. 

The dress code is casual while relaxing and dining inside. For excursions and activities outside it’s wise to be prepared for the elements and we recommend packing comfortable, functional clothing including proper raingear. Average daily temperatures during the summer range from 10-20°C with overnight lows between 10-15°C. High humidity tends to make it feel a bit colder.

When packing, think layered clothing systems comprised of wool, down, polyester, or fleece that work together and can be easily added or removed. If you have additional questions about what to pack, please contact us. The list below is primarily to assist with activities and excursions and for inside the lodge.
