Beach Bag Necessities

We like to keep it simple when we head to the beach. We encourage you to be all natural when you’re ocean-side and not fuss with makeup or hair products. If you are one of those girls who is used to going to the beach wearing makeup, try going bare-faced and you will be surprised by how liberated you feel!

Here’s what you need:

Coverup- There are so many styles to choose from: flowy, colorful, patterned, crochet … we adore them all!

Cute towel- Find a towel you absolutely love! We like bright, patterned towels that are easily spotted from the water.

SPF- If you can bring only one item with you, it should be sunscreen! Make sure to reapply throughout the day and use a sunscreen that is made of natural ingredients like SUNOLOGY. SHOP HERE.

Chapstick- Find a chapstick that has SPF to prevent your lips from burning/cracking.

Sunglasses- It’s essential to protect your delicate eye area and avoid squinting (hello wrinkles!), so don’t forget to bring a nice big pair of sunnies.

Floppy Hat- Not only does it shield your face from the sun, but it looks adorable!

Water- Bring a refillable water bottle with you so you can stay hydrated and energized all day long.

Snacks- We love to bring coconut water and fresh fruit with us. All of the tanning and relaxation makes us hungry …

Book/Magazine- Having a book with you is always a good idea. There’s nothing more satisfying than settling into your favorite book with the sound of waves crashing in the background.

Speakers- This is especially fun if you’re with a group of friends. Choose speakers that are beach friendly and wireless!

Wet Bikini Bag- If you’re changing at the beach, bring a wet bikini bag so your bag doesn’t get wet. Also bring a pair of undies to change into!
