How to Pack the Perfect Beach Bag
- 1). Pack Sun Protection, such as the following:
- First and foremost make sure that you take lots of sunscreen in a high SFP. The sunscreen should be broad spectrum to filter out UVA and UVB rays
- Don't forget to also take lip balm with a high SPF as well.
- Finally pack those sunglasses. Make sure they filter out both UVA and UVB rays. - 2). Pack the appropriate clothing, such as the following:
- Take flip flops or sandals
- Take a cover-up for your swimsuit. A t-shirt works well for this.
- Take an extra change of clothes in case you go somewhere after the beach.
- Take a hat to shield some of the sun's rays. - 3). Pack Entertainment such as the following:
- Books and audio books
- mp3 players with music
- Magazines
- Crossword puzzles
- Radio - 4). Pack Beach Items such as the following:
- Beach towel. In fact pack two. That way if one gets wet you still have a dry one to use. The extra towel can also be rolled up and used as a pillow
- Bug Repellant. If you have ever been to the beach at night you know that bug repellant is a must - 5). Pack Snacks such as the following:
- At the very least throw in a bottle or two of water.
- Take easy snacks such as chips, granola bars, trail mix etc.
- Take candy or gum that is easy to eat. Stay away from chocolate and items that will melt.
