Packing for summer travels is as good as it gets, as we trade in heavy sweaters and coats for breezy, lightweight clothes that are much easier to pack.

Comfortable walking shoes are essential for travel. From running around airports trying to make connections to busy itineraries of exploring and sightseeing, it'll be a much better experience if our feet aren't battered and blistered by the end of the day. Shop comfy sandals on sale, like the Cushionaire Cork Footbed Sandals that are on sale for $35, or the Ubfen Hiking Sandals that are $40.

Not all travel calls for luggage, and sometimes we just need a good duffel or weekender bag.

A crossbody like this Sak crossbody purse is easier to keep an eye on in a crowded tourist area than a larger purse—and it's an amazing 40 percent off now. It can convert to a wristlet when you need it and offers peace of mind, which we know, especially when traveling, is priceless.
Sleep doesn't come easily to me at home, so when traveling, it gets even harder. The unfamiliar surroundings, background sounds, and hotel room lights don't help, and the bed feels different, which always takes getting used to. I rely on handy travel accessories, like a good portable white noise machine, to get some shut-eye in my hotel room, and a comfy neck pillow and eye mask to rest on flights. These and other helpful travel accessories are on sale ahead of Prime Day, including portable chargers, packing cubes, and more. Veken 8 Set Packing Cubes, $20 (originally $30)
MZoo Sleep Eye Mask, $20 (originally $29)
Lexsion Felt Purse Bag Organizer Insert, $8 (originally $33)
Hibag Vacuum Storage Bags, $20 (originally $30)
Anker USB-C Wall Charger, $30 (originally $40)
Bagail Compression Packing Cubes, $19 (originally $28)
Dreamegg Portable White Noise Machine, $19 (originally $25)
Lewis N. Clark TSA Approved Bike Lock, $13 (originally $16)
Epicka Universal Travel Adapter, $23 (originally $25)
Napfun Neck Pillow for Traveling, $16 (originally $22)
Jemluse Wireless CarPlay Adapter, $50 (originally $80)
One of my good friends and her husband just embarked on a carry-on-only two-week trip to Portugal. Their packing secret? They used vacuum storage bags. These save so much space and meant she was able to pack a lot more cute dresses than she may have otherwise, and at $20 for 10 bags, I think she'll be stocking up on even more.
Long flights, especially overnight ones when you're trying to get some sleep, can be really hard on the body, and rest feels nearly impossible. But a good neck pillow can make all the difference; at just $16, this memory foam pillow is supportive and will prevent the dreaded head bob while snoozing in your seat.
It's important to be prepared to stay safe on rugged terrains and in unfamiliar surroundings, and that involves bringing the right outdoor gear to stay safe in the sun and protected in wet weather. There are deals on hiking and camping gear this Prime Day, including items like the Hiearcool Waterproof Phone Pouch to protect your phone and the Welly First Aid Kit to address any small cuts from the trail. There are also gadgets to keep you comfortable outdoors, like the FrSara Neck Fan, which is only $27 (originally $34) and a smart investment. I don't have an air conditioner and I even have one I use in my own apartment, but it's such an asset when exploring the outdoors on those hot and humid summer days. FrSara Neck Fan, $27 (originally $34)
Welly First Aid Kit, $14 (originally $15)
Yuzonc Camping Sleeping Pad, $30 (originally $50)
Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 Portable Power Station, $449 (originally $799)

Hiearcool Waterproof Phone Pouch, 2-pack, $12 (originally $14)
Anker Soundcore 2 Portable Bluetooth Speaker with Stereo Sound, $30 (originally $40)
Nuovoware Water Bottle Carrier Bag, $13 (originally $20)
Running out of power—or having no access to power—is scary enough at home, but it's a nightmare on the road. At $449 (originally $799), this portable power station is a must for campers, as it can power anything from air conditioners to fridges, but it can also keep your phone and other devices charged, which can literally save your life in dangerous situations.
If you're camping, you're probably going to want to hang your wet clothes at some point. This is also true if you are at the beach or the pool and don't want to pack wet swimwear. This portable clothesline is a bargain at $10 (originally $18) and just what you need to come home without wet, mildewy-smelling luggage.
