STAYING SAFE AT RESORTS

Don't leave valuables unattended on a beach. Covering your purse or wallet with a towel while you take a dip in the pool or beach, doesn't mean that you weren't being watched while you "hid" your valuables.

Leave unnecessary credit cards at home. Make a copy of any credit card you take along with a contact number in case your card is stolen.

Don't wear your flashy or expensive jewelry, if you do, lock it in the hotel/room safe when
not wearing the jewelry.

Stay away from public beaches at night, instead the private hotel beach is usually safer.

Use a concealed money belt or pouch for credit cards, cash and passports. Use a hotel safe to keep extra cash in, don't carry all your money with you everywhere you go.

Take an ATM card to obtain extra cash, most countries will have ATM's to access.

Don't buy illegal drugs. Your penalty could be 20 years in prison in some countries.

Be smart and be aware of your surroundings at all times.

That "cute" little child that is trying to get your attention with a sad story might actually be picking your pocket!

When going to the airport, don't write your home address on your luggage tag where it can be seen by a potential "thief".
