What to Pack for a Bachelorette in Cabo

What to Pack for a Bachelorette in Cabo

Cabo San Lucas is more than a bachelorette hotspot—it’s an iconic, sun-drenched escape filled with beach clubs, tequila toasts, rooftop brunches, and a little chaos. But if you think showing up with just a swimsuit and a smile will cut it, you’re in for a rude (and likely sunburned) awakening.

This is the ultimate 1500-word guide to packing for a bachelorette in Cabo. Whether you're the bride, the maid of honor, or the friend who always rallies, we’ve got you covered—literally and figuratively.

1. The Cabo Essentials

Let’s get the obvious out of the way. Cabo is hot, humid, and sunny. You’ll be in and out of pools, clubs, and open-air bars. The key is to bring versatile, breathable pieces that can take you from beachside tacos to bottle service.

👙 Swimsuits (3+)

Yes, you need more than one. At least:

  • One you can actually swim in
  • One for pool party photos
  • One that’s borderline scandalous (you know the one)

🕶️ Statement Sunglasses

This isn’t the time for subtle. Go oversized, go colored, go heart-shaped.

👗 Day-to-Night Outfits

Think beach-to-bar. Matching sets, flowy rompers, or bold sundresses that can be dressed up with jewelry or heels.

👟 Footwear Strategy:

  • Flip flops for poolside and beach
  • Sandals for daytime wanderings
  • Wedges or block heels for clubs (don’t bother with stilettos unless you want to be that girl limping at Mango Deck)

👜 The Right Bag

A compact crossbody or wristlet for clubbing. A woven beach tote for daytime adventures.

Pro Tip: Use packing cubes. Trust us.

2. The Party Survival Kit (aka the Smart Girl Section)

This is where good trips turn into legendary ones. Your hangover game plan begins before the drinks start.

🛍️ Rally Bag™ Hangover Kit

Forget DIY kits. This pre-packed lifesaver has everything you need:

  • Electrolyte packet
  • Advil®
  • Antacid
  • Gum
  • Eye mask
  • Hand + face wipes
  • Scrunchie (trust us)

Whether you’re handing these out to the group or stashing one in your beach tote, the Rally Bag is mandatory Cabo gear.

✨ Rally Patch™

A vitamin-infused recovery patch you slap on before or after the party. You absorb the good stuff while you sleep, so you don’t wake up looking like you slept in a blender.

💧 Rally Rehydrate™

Single-serve electrolyte stick packs that actually taste good. Keep a few in your purse for mornings after tequila marathons.

🧼 Rally Wipes™

Makeup remover wipes that fit in your clutch. Gentle on your skin. Brutal on waterproof mascara.

🍬 Rally Chews™

Pop a couple post-party for a fast, sweet recovery boost. They’re like gummies with a mission.

3. Skin, Sun & Self-Care

☀️ SPF EVERYTHING

You will burn. Don’t be a hero.

  • Face SPF (lightweight + matte is ideal)
  • Body SPF spray for reapplication
  • Lip balm with SPF

🧖♀️ After Sun Care

  • Aloe gel (the good kind, not neon green)
  • Hydrating sheet mask or under-eye patches for the morning after

💄 Makeup Strategy

Keep it light. You’re going to sweat it off anyway.

  • Tinted moisturizer
  • Brow gel
  • Waterproof mascara
  • Bold lip (for that Cabo pop)

Rally Pro Tip: Bring a mini micellar water bottle and cotton pads for the room.

4. Tech & Travel Must-Haves

🔋 Portable Phone Charger

You will take a thousand photos. Your phone will die.

🎶 Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker

Pool parties get an upgrade with your playlist.

📸 Disposable Cameras or Polaroids

Fun, nostalgic, and zero risk of accidental photo leaks.

🌐 Travel WiFi Hotspot or SIM (optional)

Most hotels and Airbnbs have WiFi—but if you’re going off the grid (or planning to TikTok on the beach), a travel hotspot helps.

5. Bride & Crew Extras

Make it extra special without going full cringe:

  • Matching pajamas or robes
  • Bride sash or cowboy hat (yes, it’s a thing)
  • Personalized tumblers
  • Group itinerary card in each room
  • “Team Bride” temp tattoos

Optional but unforgettable:

  • Book a surprise spa treatment for the bride
  • Get everyone a mini Rally Bag with custom name tags

Packing It All Up

Bring:

  • A hard-shell carry-on + personal item (Cabo isn’t worth lost luggage)
  • A foldable duffel bag for souvenirs
  • Ziplock bags or waterproof pouches for wet items

Final Pro Tip: Overpack meds. Underpack shoes.

Final Words

Cabo will test you. The sun, the tequila, the energy—it’s all turned up. But if you pack smart, prep with Rally, and pace yourself (LOL), you’ll come home with memories you remember… and a few you don’t.

Here’s your mantra: Pack light. Party hard. Rally On.™
