There is something amazing about going to the beach, hearing the waves and soaking up the sun. We have spent many beachside vacations together and have put together a ready-to-go packing list to help you make the most of your fun in the sun!


Enjoy!


1.Heeta Dry Bag

Keeping your stuff dry is essential at the beach. This bag is made from durable, waterproof material, it keeps your belongings safe from water, sand, and dust. The roll-top closure ensures a secure seal, while the adjustable shoulder strap makes carrying easy. Lightweight and versatile, it’s a must-have for any adventure!




2. Beach Day Sand Remover

A day at the beach just got even more enjoyable. This it a game-changing beach bag must...with just a quick brush, this lightweight and portable tool sweeps away stubborn sand from your skin, feet, and gear—no water needed! Toss it in your beach bag and stay sand-free from shore to car, and everywhere in between.




3. Towel Bands

Bye bye, towel clips! For years, beach-goers, cruise passengers, and back-yard loungers have used clips to prevent wind from blowing away their towels. These towel bands are EVEN BETTER. These convenient bands are a great travel hack to keep your beach towel secure and sand-free. The stretchy bands wrap around chairs of all sizes to keep your towel in place. They pack flat (less bulky than clips) and the variety of colors helps you see your chair in a "sea" of loungers. Lightweight and easy to use, they prevent bunching and slipping, so you can relax in comfort. Perfect for the beach, pool, or outdoor lounging!




4. Waterproof Sandproof Beach Blanket

If you're like us, spending a day at the beach means time sitting on the sand, taking naps and relaxing. This comfortable, lightweight, oversized beach blanket is perfect for 1-3 adults. Made of durable, quick-drying nylon, it’s sandproof and water-resistant—just shake off the sand and go! It even comes with stakes to secure it easily.




5. Supergoop Translucent Powder Sunscreen SPF 35

Being out in the sunshine requires great sunscreen. This is an absolute must in our bag. It's a light, soft, matte powder perfect for all skin types. It makes reapplying sunscreen easy and even helps with shine. No more messy cream that gets sticky to apply on damp skin.




6.Simplicity Sunhat With Strap

It is inevitable to have some breezy moments on a cruise. Whether watching the sea from the deck, sunning at the pool, or taking the shuttle to shore, you want to keep your face protected without your hat blowing away! This adorable hat is packable/foldable and very comfortable. The PU leather chin strap is adjustable and has a wide brim (but not so wide that you can't wear it anywhere). Multiple colors to choose from!




7.Vivosun Folding Beach Wagon

This is a lifesaver when you take all your supplies to the beach or even the pool. It has a heavy-duty frame, adjustable handle, sand-ready swivel wheels, and holds up to 300lbs of stuff - that’s a lot of towels, beach games, chairs & coolers!




8. JBL Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker

Our crew loves to have tunes in the background while we hang at the beach. This portable speaker is small enough to toss into our bag and clip to our umbrella. It's completely waterproof, so if it gets splashed, you're all good!




9. Rio Folding Beach Chairs

We have had these beach chairs for years. They are super lightweight with a storage pouch and strap for easy carrying. There are 4 recline options (if someone needs a nap): dry quickly when wet, and easily wipe down to get clean and rid of sand.




10. Jisulife Mini Handheld Fan

This little fan is small in size but big in function. It's the go-to essential for staying cool on hot days. It has up to 19 hours of cooling time on a single charge and recharges with a USB. It easily fits into your beach bag or even in your pocket. There is also a flashlight function for those walks on the beach at dusk.




11. Sun Supplies Bag

If you're like us, you pack bags in bags. This zipper pouch is adorable and functional. We use it to store all the sunscreens in the beach bag. It's a great size to hold multiple containers and the see through PVC makes it easy to see what you need. Also, it's easy to wipe down and keep clean. Perfect for pool side, beach day or dock side.




Enjoy the recos. Travel well friends!
