Introduction

When you’re planning a beach trip, it’s easy to get caught up in everything you have to do before you leave and forget about what you’ll need after you arrive. This article will help remind you of the things we’ve learned while getting ready for our own beach vacations that make life easier once we’re there—and give your trip the best chance at being truly relaxing and enjoyable!

Umbrella

An umbrella is the perfect accessory for a beach vacation. It can shade you from the hot sun and protect you from harmful UV rays, while also providing a fun fashion statement with its bright colors and patterns. However, not all umbrellas are created equal—not only do they vary in size and shape, but some are more effective than others at protecting against the elements.

If this is your first time taking an umbrella on vacation or if you’re looking for a new one for next year’s trip, here’s what to look for:

• Size: It’s important that your umbrella have enough space underneath it to provide adequate coverage (at least four feet). If it doesn’t fit properly over your table or chair, then it won’t shield you from anything but raindrops!
• Material: Look for an umbrella made of nylon or polyester fabric; these fabrics are lightweight and resistant to tearing when exposed to sharp objects like sand grains or rocks that might get kicked up by passing cars on busy streets near beachfront resorts (just be careful not step inside).

Reusable water bottle

• Reusable water bottles are a must-have for any beach trip.
• Plastic bottles contribute to the ocean plastic pollution problem and you can help solve that by avoiding them.
• You can also save money in the long run by using a reusable bottle instead of buying bottled water all day.
• You won’t have to worry about getting sick from plastics either, because reusable bottles don’t contain BPA (bisphenol A) or other chemicals that leach into your drink, unlike single-use plastic ones.

Spray bottle with water/vinegar mixture to clean sand off

After you are done playing, your feet will be covered in sand. The best way to clean them off is with a squirt bottle filled with water and vinegar. Vinegar is a great cleaning agent and also acts as a natural disinfectant, so it will take care of most of the germs you picked up at the beach. It’s also great for cleaning off sunglasses if they get sandy!

Travel first aid kit.

• Travel first aid kit.
• Be sure to check the expiration dates of your first aid supplies, and replace them when necessary. You’ll need bandages, gauze pads and non-latex gloves for minor cuts and scrapes; antibiotic ointment (Neosporin is a good option); a pair of tweezers in case you need to remove splinters or ticks; adhesive tape or butterfly strips for butterfly stitches; alcohol wipes for cleaning skin before applying medication; and cotton balls or swabs for applying antiseptics or cleaning wounds. If you have children with you on vacation who might need special attention from time to time—or if you’re worried about dealing with any potential medical emergencies that could happen while away from home—consider adding an electronic thermometer in your kit as well as a flashlight so they can be used at night if necessary. Remember: All medications should be stored correctly in accordance with their expiration dates so they don’t lose potency over time!

Tote bag with pockets.

• You need a tote bag with pockets.
• It should have a water-resistant lining, but not so heavy that you can’t carry it.
• You want to make sure there are zippered compartments and pockets for all your stuff!

With a little planning and the right supplies, you can make your beach trip a success.

While a beach vacation is a great way to relax and bond with your family, it can also be dangerous. If you don’t have the right supplies, injuries can occur that will ruin your trip. To avoid this, make sure that you pack extra sunscreen and plenty of water for everyone in your group.

Also, take some time before leaving to look over the area for any hazards such as riptides or sharp rocks. If there are any dangerous spots on the beach where you want to swim or sunbathe, go ahead and move them away from those areas so they aren’t an issue later on during your trip.

Conclusion

We hope that we’ve helped you plan your next beach trip and that you have a wonderful time! Keep in mind that these tips are just suggestions—there are infinite ways to pack the perfect survival kit.
