Beach Essentials for Summer
Ever get to the beach to hang out for the day and realise you have forgotten something? This is not uncommon as there are always a number of things to pack and take, especially if you are planning to send a bit of time on the sand getting sun, fun and relaxation.
Having a list of beach essentials to pack will help out big time and give you peace of mind that you have got all the essentials with you to enjoy your day!
- Sun protection is not just sun cream, although this is vitally important. This also means sun protective clothing such as a women’s rashie with zip which will help protect your skin from the sun and getting sunburnt.
- Sun screen is definitely a beach must have as it can help cover and protect all those exposed areas of skin which are both delicate and also prone to getting sun burnt.
- A towel is not just for drying off after a refreshing swim, but also something to sit on. In fact, a great idea is to pack 2 - one for lying on and one for drying off.
- Taking a bottle or even a couple of bottles of water can help keep you hydrated throughout the day. A great idea is to freeze the bottles of water the night before so when you go to have a drink, you will have cold and refreshing water to drink. There is nothing worse than water that has been warmed up by the sun.
- Always a good idea to take sunglasses and a hat which will help protect both your eyes and the top of your head. A hat with a large brim is definitely preferable as to help cover your face, neck and shoulders. Sunglasses will help with keeping your eyes safe from the sun – yes, even eyes can get sun damage too!
- Packing a picnic makes a good beach day into a great beach day. Take pre-made sandwiches, cold chicken and chopped up fruit in a cooler bag to enjoy when you feel peckish. This is a must have if you have got kids!
- Last but definitely not least is to have some change with you to buy an ice-cream after the beach. An ice-cream after a long hot day of relaxation is the perfect treat and kids will love it!
