You need to master two artistic abilities because you have to create an outstanding beach or pool bag design. Your worst situation happens when you build your sand-free area and discover that you need sunscreen and water but you do not have them. The right bag contents will enable you to spend an entire beach day without needing to purchase vital supplies from high-priced retailers.
High-SPF Sunscreen (and Lip Balm)
The sunscreen serves as the essential product which must be included in your bag. The sunscreen provides dual protection through its ability to shield against aging rays and burning rays. Your lips need SPF lip balm because they can get sunburned just like your skin and the wind and salt conditions will make them dry out.
A Dedicated Sand-Free Mat
Cotton towels serve as effective drying tools however they possess an unpleasant feature which allows them to trap sand particles. You should choose either a “sand-free” microfiber towel or a lightweight woven mat as your base option. The products enable users to remove sand from their skin which protects them from carrying excessive sand back to their cars.
A Waterproof Phone Pouch
Your phone’s “water-resistant” feature does not provide protection against sand and salt which will damage its charging ports and speakers. Users can interact with their device screen while taking pictures because the waterproof pouch with zip-lock design protects the device from dirt and water. The pouch functions as a dual-purpose item because it provides you with a safe space to store your keys and cash.
A Wide-Brimmed Hat
Sunscreen protects your skin while a hat provides actual shade that prevents sunlight from reaching your face and eyes. The wide-brimmed straw hat and specialized “bucket” hat provide head protection against bright light which causes sunglasses users to develop headaches.
Polarized Sunglasses
Sunglasses differ in quality between different models. The water requires polarized lenses to minimize glare that bounces off the surface. The technology enables users to identify items located beneath water while it simultaneously decreases eye strain which enables them to spend extended periods outdoors.
A Wet Bag or Spare Plastic Bag
Your bathing suit becomes completely soaked at the beach while your towel becomes covered in salt. The wet bag maintains all your items dry while the basic plastic grocery bag prevents wet items from touching your dry clothing and electronics and all your other possessions.
Portable Power Bank
Beach activities which include taking pictures and playing music together with using high screen brightness will cause phone batteries to discharge quickly. The portable charging device which fits in your pocket allows you to maintain connectivity until you require a ride home.
A Small “First Aid” Kit
You should pack a small pouch with essential items which include waterproof bandages, hand sanitizer and anti-itch cream for bug bites and jellyfish stings. The availability of these items will prevent you from needing to visit the lifeguard station while also stopping minor cuts from interfering with your afternoon activities.
