It's important to know

a soft travel bag or backpack, because it is more convenient in the case of hermetic packaging, which guarantees impermeability, when some transfers are carried out on open vessels, it is desirable that the volume of your backpacks and bags does not exceed 90 liters;
a small, comfortable backpack that will always be at hand, in which you can put a flask of water, a camera, a windbreaker and other personal belongings;
shoes — comfortable trekking boots for walking (not necessarily mountain boots, but preferably with a good tread and a non—slip sole), as an alternative — boots - boots of the "army" type, high waterproof sneakers are possible, but this option is less preferable;
outerwear is a good warm jacket, preferably made of windproof, moisture—repellent membrane fabric, if there is none, a ski jacket is also suitable, in addition to this, it is desirable that in addition to a warm jacket you also have a light, breathable windbreaker in case of relatively warm weather - for active walks;
thermal underwear for moderate activity, thermal socks are mandatory and two pairs are better (one woolen!), or just woolen socks;
fleece jacket or sweater;
outdoor-pants made of membrane fabric or thick cotton. Tight jeans will do;
knitted hat or cap "with ears";
knitted wool gloves;
swimming trunks (swimsuit) and a towel if you decide to swim in the Greenland Sea.

Other personal items:

sunglasses (when the sun is there, it is very bright and active);
sunscreen (once again: when the sun is there, it is bright and active);
binoculars so that everyone around "bites their elbows", which makes it more convenient for you to admire whales, seals, bears, deer and bird markets;
a camera, so that later, after returning, everyone around "bit their elbows" that they did not go with you. It is better to pack video and photographic equipment in mini-hermetic packages brought with you;
"Dramina" — pills for motion sickness (or something similar) if they are susceptible to "seasickness";
personal first aid kit (if there are any diseases that may worsen);
a small thermos (0.5–0.8 liters), so that it is always with something tasty and hot at hand;
slippers (we try to maintain the age-old traditions of the inhabitants of Svalbard and in public places take off shoes right at the doorstep, including in hotels and restaurants. Many people walk quite calmly barefoot or in slippers, which, as a rule, are available in hotels. But if you are more comfortable in your own, take it with you);
a small polyurethane seat mat (for example, a "seat" with an elastic band — sold in sports stores).
