Check that your passport is valid and the expiry date will allow for contingencies. If you must renew or get a new passport , don’t leave the task till the last few weeks before departure. Make sure your credit card/s is also valid. Take your driving licence.

If travelling in hot weather plan to take lightweight clothes, including good head gear to protect you from direct sun on the Golf course. You will need a pair of sunglasses with protection against UV Rays. Take advice from your doctor or Pharmacist about sun blocking cream, jet lag, insect propellant, water purification & tummy bug tablets.
