Clean, potable water is a must. You can only survive a few days without it. Distill sea water to get rid of the salt. Boil water for five to ten minutes to kill disease causing organisms.

Protect yourself from the elements. Exposure to extremes of heat or cold can kill you.

Shelter and fire are your priorities. A tarp, a poncho and a fire starter (matches, flint & steel, etc) can be a big help.

You want to be rescued if you are lost. Signaling devices such as smoke making fires, a brightly colored poncho, a whistle or a mirror are useful.

Food, while desirable, is not a must. Most people can survive for up to thirty days without food. If you have fire then hunting for and preparing food is possible.

A small survival kit with a good quality knife, a tarp, a poncho and fire making equipment can be put into a tin can such as a large coffee can. The can can be used for preparing food and boiling water.
