Boca Raton is well-known for fashion and amazing shopping, but you can pack comfortable, casual clothing and blend right in! Most restaurants do not require a formal dress code, so we recommend resort casual for the activity areas and for cocktails and dining, resort chic. You’ll want to pack your swimming & sunning clothing including flip flops, bathing suits and cover-ups, shorts, hats, etc. We do recommend bringing a light sweater for cooler evenings.
TSA Additional Packing Hints: When travelling, please remember that suitcases should be turned over to the airlines unlocked or secured with Transportation Security Administration (TSA) approved locks. TSA opens suitcases at random. Damage to suitcases due to TSA security checks are the owner’s responsibility. To view a list of approved locks, please consult the TSA website. (https://www.tsa.gov)
