If you go by the theory that one should always be prepared, this is the post for you. It’s about beach bags, and what should go in them. We’re talking about any occasion.
The seasoned and prepared traveler will have it in the bag.
Here are the top 10 lists for common occasions you might find yourself on the Grand Strand. It’s the little things that count. And not only because it’s hard to get big things in a beach bag.
What to Pack In the Family Bag
It seems the smaller the kids you have, the bigger the list of things to bring for them can be. Although you’re not going to fit a bouncy seat in a beach bag, there are other things to consider.
Sunscreen — broad-spectrum protection, SPF 30 or higher
Sun-proof outerwear — extended coverage, flip-up sun collars
Healthy snacks in containers — nuts and fruits, nut butter with apples
Footwear — beach shoes, flip flops, sandals
Lip balm — with humectants and emollients for moisturizing
Talc — it works wonders for removing sand, especially on kids
Insulated water bottles — reduce plastics, save money
Beach towels — absorbent, comfortable, not too thick
First-aid kit — premade or homemade
Beach toys — simple and sturdy, bucket, shovel, block builders
What to Pack In a Couples’ Bag
Aw, you two are so cute. When it’s just you two, you’ll want to mix practical and romantic. Here’s how.
Sunglasses — lenses covered in several protective layers
Personalized towels — or at least ones you pick together at a beach shop
Sunscreen — keep in a plastic bag in case it leaks; help each other apply it
Walking sandals — for romantic beach strolls, hand in hand
Beach coverups — choose a breathable fabric with easy care
Change of clothes — in case you get wet or want to get ice cream
Good reads — bring books you love for a little escape time
Aspirin — sun exposure can take a toll on your eyes and head
Lightweight beach chairs — no one wants to sit in the sand!
What to Pack In a Girlfriends Getaway Beach Bag
When it’s just the girls, some things are just more important.
Sheet masks — a fun, inexpensive thing to share among you
Little black dress — or a sundress fit for day or night
Sunscreen — SPF 30 or higher; remember to apply often
Clutch — for those times you’re out in the LBD or sundress
Light sweater — keep warm on a chilly night and look fabulous
Comfy shoes — lightweight, yet sturdy enough for the boardwalk
