I am packing for Comporta.
I am almost too nervous to say in case I jinx my chances. Travel is so on and off in Europe right now and the getting away can be iffy. We decided yesterday to book some flights to Lisbon and head down to the beach at Comporta for a few weeks. It’s been a long year of lockdowns and who knows what the winter will bring so while we can we are trying our best to get there. I am feeling extremely grateful for the chance to get away and decidedly lucky if it comes off.
Comporta is a relaxed place with miles of beaches and plenty of ocean. The pack should not be difficult and the trick would be to go light. I haven’t even considered a suitcase for a year or more so I doubt I am going to make it light or get it right. The thought of wearing caftans and predominantly white has set my head into a spin. I’m even happy about a bathing suit and that is one piece of clothing I never rush towards.
My pack started as a mental pack and I have put it all HERE to show you.
I think it makes it easier for you to see and certainly saves me time when it comes to the physical fold.
What’s In The Comporta Pack?
Whether Comporta is on your radar or you are just hanging out in the sunshine, these pieces are the best.
The three shoe rule still applies – trainers, mules, and a pair of slippers for lounging at home.
Long shorts, white jeans, and a pair of sweats to mix and match with several white blouses.
I’m using a classic French-style basket for the beach and a raffia string bag for everything else; these will be cute with the hats I have chosen.
Dresses, caftan and cover-up style to wear from day through the evening with a mix of length and sleeve style to see me through.
I’ll throw in a sarong, some simmering body oil to enhance the non-existent tan and my favourite beauty products we talked about earlier.
And this hopefully means I am well and truly set. xv
