Sun, sea, sand – Nothing beats a beach holiday. If you’re not sure what essential items you will need to pack for a fun-filled day out to the beach, worry not, as we’ve got you covered with a list of beach essentials.
Sunbathing and tanning are what the majority of us go on beach holidays for, so it’s important to remain hydrated while you’re there. You should always protect yourself against the sun with a combination of high-factor sun protection for sensitive areas, and clothing. Even if you think that your skin won’t burn in the sun because you tan easily, you should still protect your skin from getting skin damage.
It’s not always easy carrying lots of heavy bags to the beach. Most beaches will have cafés and shops where you can purchase food, drinks, sun cream, clothing, and many more items. However, they might charge over the typical price that you would usually expect to pay back home, so it is always advised to take the essentials if you can.
You lose lots of moisture just sitting out in the sun, so you might need to keep hydrated with water more than you think you should. Failing to do so can lead to things like sunstroke.
It is advised to leave valuables in your accommodation to avoid them being lost or stolen. If you do decide to take your valuables to the beach, make sure you keep them in a safe place, or if there’s a nearby establishment that has a secure locker service. Don’t leave valuables unattended or try hiding them in the sand or your back, as you never know who is watching you.
