Sunscreen
Sunscreen or a sun block is an absolute essential, especially when you are traveling to a beach. You need to remember that there are several health hassles that you could face due to unprotected sun exposure. Carry a high SPF sunscreen and enjoy the beach without worries.
Sun Glasses
It goes without saying, if you are going to the beach, you need sunglasses. Besides the fact that they look cool, they also protect your eyes from the glare of the sun, which is quite a bit at the beach. In fact, you can carry an extra reserve pair as well, just in case one breaks.
Bathing Suit
It would be silly to go for a beach vacation without carrying along a bathing suit. So, carry it with you.
Clothing
Depending on the location, carry along the clothes that fit in. Like, if you are going to Hawaii, carry the ones that would be suitable for the weather there. So one should opt for the clothes depending upon the weather at the location. Checking out on a forecast can help in this situation.
Gear
Carry other beach related gear, e.g., if you are into surfing, carry your surfboard. You can also carry your water skiing equipment, if you like to water ski. However, these things are available everywhere, so in case you are not in possession of such a gear, you could buy it from the location itself.
Camera
Anyone who has ever been to a beach resort for a vacation would vouch for the fact, that the views are worth taking back home in your camera. The sunsets and sunrises, the pink skies and the water madness, they are all worth capturing and taking back home. Also ensure that you carry its batteries and the charger as well.
Toiletries
Never forget the required toiletries. They are available at all places, nonetheless, a last minute run around can ruin the mood for the entire day. So carry your face wash, toothbrush, face cream etc. That way you can be sure of having all that you need.
First Aid
In any kind of travel, it is very important to make sure that you carry the required first aid kit. Especially at a beach, it is very important to have it close by.
