Deciding what to pack in your Disney park bag can be just as difficult as deciding which ride you want to go on first.
Cinderella Castle
How much is too much? How much is too little? Are you REALLY going to need that? What if you need THIS but you don’t have it? It’s a tough call, but it’s one I make time after time as a Disney blog editor who travels to Disney World often. So, without further ado, here’s every essential I pack in my bag to travel to the parks!
I’m lucky enough to live just a couple of hours or so away from Disney World, which means I travel there at least once per month — and usually more. But, hey, it is my job, after all! Since I live relatively close, I typically only take day trips, and I also like packing light — which means I need to be smart about what I’m bringing with me! Check out some of my essential faves below.
I love this Sun Bum Facial Sunscreen Mist

I’m a fair-skinned Florida native, which means I’m serious about my sunscreen (at least now that I’m in my thirties). This Sun Bum Facial Mist has been a game-changer for me in the parks. I love tossing the travel-size bottle in my park bag for reapplying on my face and neck, arms, and wherever I need a touch-up of sunscreen. It’s a lighter mist than what you’d expect from an aerosol spray and smells like bananas!
This Shiseido Sunscreen Stick is also a fave

This Shiseido Sunscreen Stick is another one of my favorites. It’s a clear stick with another light scent that doesn’t smell like sunscreen. It glides right onto my skin — or over my makeup — and doesn’t feel greasy or sticky at all. Plus, you don’t have to worry about it leaking in your bag.
A UV-blocking shirt like this can be a lifesaver

I love a loose button-down as an accessory, and it’s even better when it offers UV protection like this one does. Not only does it help block those harsh rays, but it’s also quick drying and moisture-wicking for those particularly hot days!
You’ll pretty much always spot me in this Mickey hat

Sunscreen is often not enough for my ghostly skin, so this red Mickey hat is my go-to for when I’m in the parks. It helps block some of the sun from my face, but it also means I probably don’t really have to put any effort into my hair for the day (HA). And, it makes me feel like I’m going incognito!
Don’t forget my favorite park bag!
Nylon Crescent Crossbody Purse
I used to be a belt bag girl, but I have since seen the light of the Nylon Crescent Crossbody bag like this blue one here! It’s comfortable, stylish (so hot right now!), and holds WAY more than a Lululemon belt bag does. You’ll have no problem keeping all of my park essentials tucked away in this bag — because I do it all the time!
