[bnsilly]

Hey guys..tried to search, but didn't find anything...

What is the best mosquito repellent to use in the islands?? Want something that works really well..Don't want to spend my days miserable and scratching! lol :eek::D

I have read that unless you are going to be on any of the islands around dusk, you will have little need for insect repellent. Most people are back on the ship before then. We went on a zipline last Feb, and didn't have any problems with bugs at all.

The higher the percentage of deets the better, I get one of the unscented Cutters

We've never had a problem with bugs on any of the Caribbean islands we have been to.

I have heard good things about an Avon product called Skin-So-Soft. It is a sunscreen as well as, mosquito, flea & deer tick repellent- SPF 30. 4 oz tube. And it is waterproof. 1800-for-avon

I use Repel and they come in various concentrations of DEET. I used 100% at Wonder Lake in Denali NP in Alaska (mosquito nets were also pretty much required there). That would probably be overkill in the Caribbean but 20-25% DEET is probably good.
