Summer Call, and it says “See you on the beach.” Whether you’re a sand purist, a pure purist, or anything under more umbrella, we can all agree: a great beach day comes down to preparation. A towel that actually dry, a chair that won’t collapse after one use, enough SPF and snacks to last from sunrise to sunset.
But instead of removing the same old beach gear from the garage and hoping it will keep up another summer, he says it’s time for an upgrade.
What you need to prepare for beach day
Preparing the beach is not a small task. There are towels, chairs, snacks, shades, games and a thought soundtrack. That’s before I put on my first sunscreen. Good news? We’ve done the drilling for you.
This list includes essentials and upgrades. A comfortable chair, a cooler with storage, SPF that doesn’t feel gloss, and a table to prevent the table from sitting directly in the sand. If you’re adjusting your beach days, think of this your cheat sheet.
