Family beach days are so much fun! There are so many memories to be made… building sand castles, swimming in the ocean, enjoying the salty breeze. To be well-prepared for a beach day, there are must-have family beach bag essentials that are necessities to make your adventure a much easier process.

Family Beach Bag Essentials

1. Water and drinks – Make sure your bag has enough water and other beverages to keep everyone in your family sufficiently hydrated throughout your beach day.

2. Sunglasses & hats – Keep eyes, scalps, and faces protected with a little extra coverage from the sun.

3. Sunscreen – your family beach bag must definitely contain a broad spectrum sunscreen that protects skin from UVA & UVB rays. Banana Boat® has a perfect sunscreen for every member of your family. Apply Banana Boat® sunscreen 30 minutes before heading outside, and be sure to reapply every 2 hours while you’re at the beach (or sooner if you’ve been in the water!)

4. Snacks – Keep little bellies happy and satisfied with healthy and easy snacks to munch at the beach. Things like: fruit, pretzels, cheese, and other similar options are great choices for kids (and adults) to enjoy throughout the day.

5. Cash – This is a must for the beach. Parking may require cash, the ice cream truck may drive by, or any number of situations can pop up where cash is the only accepted form of currency.

6. Shovels, buckets, and other sand toys – Kids just want to have fun, no matter where they are! Embrace your inner child and help your kiddo build the biggest sandcastle ever! Bury each other in the sand! Just make sure you brought along your sand toys to keep everyone entertained during your beach day.

7. Big Beach Blanket – No family beach day would be complete without a big ol’ beach blanket for everyone to track sand across lay on.
