These travel stocking stuffers are great gift ideas for the wanderlust in your life!

Waterproof Waist Pouch

This waterproof waist pouch is just too good to be true.  You can actually submerge yourself in water and it still will keep everything dry!

We’re talking your phone, money, passport…everything.

These waterproof pouches are great for snorkelers and swimmers, but also perfect for people that need to keep the essentials close to their body.

This is definitely a winning stocking stuffer for travelers!  

Customizable Luggage Tags

Customized luggage tags are such a fun and unique gift idea for travelers and they’re the perfect size for stocking stuffers!

Luggage tags are a great (and important!) way to identify luggage, so their purpose is both practical and fun (which is always a bonus when you’re looking for great gifts).

There are so many fun ideas for luggage tags, but these are some of the best I’ve seen:

Mini S’well Water Bottles

There’s no question that S’well water bottles are the absolute best water bottles, especially for travelers (they keep your water cold for HOURS and are reusable, which is really important when you’re traveling to sensitive habitats).  But did you know that they have mini versions??

The mini S’wells have all the same great features of the larger S’wells…they’re just smaller!

But that means that they’re a great travel accessory because you can fit them in more bags and they aren’t as heavy.  

And, of course, this also means that they make great stocking stuffers for travelers because they fit perfectly into a stocking!  This one is definitely a gift idea that they will get excited about.

Waterproof Travel Speaker

This waterproof speaker is a really fun travel stocking stuffer that is not only great when traveling, but will also find a lot of use at home.

This speaker will connect with your phone to play music for you with not only a much higher speaker quality than your phone, but also with waterproof functionality!

This means it’s great for boat or beach trips, hiking through waterfalls, or just a relaxing day in the tub or shower.

This is a really fun travel accessory that every traveler should have in their arsenal!

Cocktail Kits for Flights

Ok, this is one of the most brilliant inventions ever – a cocktail kit for the airplane!

All you do is bring this aboard, ask for one of their mini bottles of liquor and voila!  You can make your own cocktail, just like in the olden days (because even first class doesn’t have these kind of cocktails anymore)!

And of course, these awesome cocktail kits are the perfect size for stockings, so they’re a great gift idea for travelers that fly a lot.

Bombas Socks

Socks are the world’s greatest stocking stuffer…for everyone. But when it comes to travelers, the best socks are definitely Bombas.

These socks are really high quality and they have special ones that are made for hiking, which is perfect for travelers that like to explore.

They also donate a pair of socks for every pair purchased, which is a great philanthropic benefit!

Mini Sunscreen

Really good sunscreen is EXPENSIVE. It just really adds up over time!  And if you’re traveling a lot, you will really start to worry about the quality of sunscreen you use.

So, all of a sudden, the quality of sunscreen you use needs to go up, in addition to the price going up.

Wondering what the best sunscreens are?

Know where I’m headed??? The price, necessity, and quality make travel sunscreen an AWESOME stocking stuffer for travelers.

My personal opinion (what I use and what my research has me believing is the best for both me and my kids) is Blue Lizard sunscreen.  It’s about as natural as you can get and comes from Down Under…and you know they’ve got a lot of sun to contend with!

They have different versions, so you can get an extra Sensitive type, a Baby type, and an Active type.  But they’re all good!

Wet Dry Bag

If there’s a chance of your traveler getting wet (and definitely if they’re heading to the beach!), then these wet dry bags are a life-changing travel accessory!

You can throw your wet bathing suit or clothes into the bag and it will keep it from getting everything else wet.  Which is critical when you are packing right after swimming!

These can also be used for sweaty clothes and are great for parents that take their kids along…because, well…you know where I’m going. 😉

This is one of my favorite stocking stuffer ideas for travelers because it can get a ton of use no matter how far you’re going.

PopSockets

PopSockets are an awesome phone accessory that makes it easier to take selfies, as well as stand your phone up.

This is really great for posing for photos and especially for parents because it can actually help to prop your phone up if your kids want to watch something (this helps so much at restaurants!).

It’s one of those phone accessories that you’ll wish you had gotten sooner!  And it’s a fabulous stocking stuffer for travelers.

Travel Laundry Bag

I’ve used a travel laundry bag like this one for years and it’s one of my absolute favorite travel accessories.

It is so nice to be able to separate dirty clothes from clean clothes and this one has the coolest travel design on it!

It’s a great travel stocking stuffer with a really helpful practical use.  This will definitely become a favorite travel accessory!

Travel Shaving Cream

Shaving cream is a pain to travel with, so these really nice tubs of shaving cream are perfect travel stocking stuffers!

They come in a ton of scents, from lavender and sandalwood to avocado and forest.

It’s a high quality brand, so it will also be fun to try out! It’s a great stocking stuffer for men that travel a lot.

Handheld Luggage Scale

A handheld luggage scale is a brilliant stocking stuffer for travelers that find themselves packed to capacity often.

The last thing that anyone wants is to be stuck at an airport frantically moving things from a suitcase to a carry-on…just to meet the weight limitations!

Handheld luggage scales take care of that by enabling you to weigh your luggage right in your hand.  It’s actually a really amazing innovation!

This is another fun travel accessory that has a very important purpose that will prevent a lot of travel frustration.

Mini Toiletries

Mini toiletries are a classic stocking stuffer for travelers, so don’t forget to grab a bunch of these!

Not only are there now serious regulations when flying, but it’s also virtually impossible to travel with ALL of your necessities in their normal size.

So grab things like little shampoos and conditions, travel-sized TUMS and ibuprofen, travel-sized contact solution, toothpaste…really anything you can think of.

They’re perfect for travel AND perfect as stocking stuffers.  These are a total win-win.

I hope you land on some of these stocking stuffers for travelers!  They’ll be so excited and all of these products will get a lot of use.  Good luck with your shopping and happy holidays!
