Pleasant temperatures in May mean you can pack light but flexibel pieces. Think cotton t-shirts, comfortable walking shorts, and one warmer layer for evenings. A light sweater or denim jacket works well. With minimal rainfall expected, you can leave the rain gear at home. With water temperatures around 21°C (70°F), swimming conditions are excellent. Pack your swimsuit, goggles, and maybe some water shoes. And with plenty of sunshine hours, don’t forget sunglasses, sunscreen, and maybe a sun hat.
