A tea towel. I always forget and I always need one on holiday. And a handful of clothe pegs.

Little glasses cleaning wipes
Carrier / tote bags - you can never have too many

Battery pack
Glasses / sunglasses cases or holders
Flip flops

Check chargers again

I never travel anywhere without a 4 way gang and a plug adapter relevant to the country I am travelling in.
Have an amazing time
