We all know that now that the weather has essentially skipped over Spring and now has hit Summer, we will all be taking trips to a local beach. Here is just some things to keep in mind before you go on your day trip.

1. Pack the essentials

You don't want to lug your life in a few bags to the beach when you will most likely only use maybe 4-5 of the items you packed

2. Don't forget Music

Some beaches don't have local wifi so make sure you bring alternate forms of music, or maybe a book!

3. Stay Hydrated

Water is the best thing for a day in the sun. You sweat out a lot of water so you want to make sure you stay hydrated. Other drinks are welcome too.

4. Sunscreen is a Blessing

Something that I've learned is that even people with darker pigmentation for skin still should put on sunscreen. This will protect you from the harmful UV rays!

5. Aloe is also a blessing when you forget Sunscreen

Be honest, you've forgotten the sunscreen once in a while and now there's a nice hot red patch all over your body that hurts when it's touched. Aloe will help to cool and ease the pain
