Certain factors such as the sun or the salty sea water make certain objects or products important. Especially when it comes to children, the elderly or people with sensitive skin who participate.

Sometimes being in a rush or not making a list of things to take to the beach is often the cause of forgetting to  include necessary items.

Certain factors such as the sun or salty sea water make certain objects or products important. Especially when it comes to children, the elderly or people with sensitive skin who participate.

Here are some recommendations to keep in mind to spend a good day at the beach.

Accessories to have on a day at the beach

1. Dry clothes

It may happen that, after a hot day in which people usually prefer to stay cool in the water, in the evening after sunset, the bikini or swimsuit no longer dries and you have to go home with wet clothes.

Wet clothes can trigger colds or colds. Especially if, in addition, at sunset the place begins to cool. So it is not advisable to spend a lot of time with it on.

In this way, wearing dry clothes can be very comfortable and flattering. Ideally, wear underwear, panties or briefs so that you can remove your bathing suits and dry yourself properly.

2. Protect yourself from the sun: sunscreen and sunglasses

When thinking about what to bring to the beach, it is important to remember the sunscreen, the towel and perhaps the umbrella. These are essential elements with which to protect yourself from the sun. Especially sun cream. Sunlight can damage the skin causing severe burns that can trigger disease.

In addition, it may be beneficial to include  sunglasses. These are the only way you can protect your eyes.

Ultraviolet rays can cause corneal burns and retinal problems. Also increase the risk of suffering cataracts in the future, among other problems.

For all this, sunglasses and sunscreen should not be missing to protect against the sun.

3. Jacket

The weather on many occasions can be unpredictable. You can leave the house at an hour and it is very hot, and after a while it starts to get cold. Or spend the whole day very well on the beach, but as the afternoon falls it begins to cool.

The easiest way to catch a cold is to get cold. To avoid this situation, it is best to prevent it and always wear something warm. Always having a jacket on hand is a very good solution.

Especially for children, older people and those who are more cold.

Important not to forget

4. Water

When we make the list of what to take to the beach, an essential is the water. Although there may be a nearby source or a place where you can buy drinks, we usually have to leave the beach to buy them.

To save time and money, the ideal would be to acquire a small refrigerator in which to store the water we need. And even a piece of fruit. This will keep food and water fresh whenever it is needed.

On the beach, being exposed to the sun and due to the salty water of the sea, we will be much more thirsty than usual. Poor hydration can lead to people becoming dehydrated. You also have to be careful with pets if you take them on the trip.

5. Sunscreen

As mentioned above, sunscreen is essential when it comes to protecting the skin from the sun. The product should be applied to both the face and the body. But sun protection is of special importance so we reiterate in adding it whenever the body is going to be exposed to sunlight for a long time.

Dermatologists recommend replenishing protection approximately every two hours. This means that even if it is applied before leaving home, it will have to be used again later.

It is also important to bring the most suitable sunscreen for each skin and not to get into the water with it freshly on. It is recommended to wait a little for the protector to set. Otherwise, its effectiveness will be reduced.
