All Day Comfort
Ice water is free in nearly all theme parks. You just need to ask. We’re finding more refill stations around the parks, as well. It helps keep you hydrated without paying for drinks all day.
Refillable Water Bottles
These are great to throw in your bag and freshen up whenever you feel like you need to. I hate walking around with a stick of deodorant, so this is the next best thing.
Lume Acidified Deodorant Wipes - 15ct x3 Cool Cucumber
These are cheap, lightweight, and much less expensive than the ones they sell in the parks.
Disposable Rain Ponchos Adults 5 Pack
This works with iPhone only. A lot of theme park planning revolves around being able to use their app. Between the app, heat, and dozens of photos you’ll be taking, your phone will drain extremely fast. I like small backup batteries like this because...
Magsafe Power Bank
I recommend bringing a few cheaper pairs of sunglasses, so you won’t be upset if you break or lose one during your trip. I don’t bring my “good” sunglasses to theme parks.
Polarized Sunglasses Matte Finish (3 Pack)
First Aid

Body Glide Foot Glide Anti Blister Balm 0.8oz
Too many people forget that their lips can get sunburned too. I like this because it goes on smooth.
Panama Jack SPF 45 Sunscreen Lip Balm
When headaches and sore feet happen, having some Advil on hand will save you from hunting some down in the parks and paying $$$. If you run out, First Aid can help you, too.
Advil Pain Reliever Ibuprofen 200mg - 10 Tabs
I like lightweight, non greasy sunscreen that’s easy to reapply without spraying everyone around me in line.
Neutrogena Ultra Sheer SPF 70 Sunscreen 3oz
These are going to stick better than regular bandaids. If you forget to pack any, visit First Aid. They can hand you a few free ones
Blister Bandages
Keeping Cool
These take up nearly no space in your bag and they help you stay cool during the day.
Cooling Towel
Don’t expect it to completely cool you down. But sometimes a steady stream of air blowing on your face is exactly what you need when it’s really hot outside.
