Whether it be on Amazon, from Forever 21, or even 5Below, pick up a pair of fun sunnies and throw them in your beach bag. Sunglasses are essential for those hot summer days and with the latest frames and styles, you're bound to find a few pairs you like!
3. Telephone cord hair ties

Yes. Telephone cord hair ties are a MUST. They're waterproof, colorful, and very stretchy. For my friends who love scrunchies but can't wear them in the ocean, these will be perfectly comfortable for your hair.
4. Reusable water bottle

SAVE THE EARTH. Prevent more trash from piling on the beach and make an effort to bring a reusable water bottle with you. Super important to stay hydrated under the sun, too!
5. Fanny pack
https://www.amazon.com/Kayhoma-Stripe-Festival-Vin...
A perfect way to consolidate space for your money, phone, sunglasses, and a small sunscreen! A fanny pack is especially great for people who don't want to bring a big beach bag to the beach.
6. Kimonos

Even better than a cover-up: a kimono. Super comfy, and lots of different patterns and colors are available. Kimonos are the perfect overlay for a bathing suit if you're interested in leaving the beach for dinner on the boardwalk, or even for a leisurely walk.
7. Waterproof speaker
https://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Ears-WONDERBOOM-Wa...
Not a regular speaker, a waterproof speaker. There is nothing worse than sitting far away from the water JUST so your speaker doesn't get splashed. Save your worries, and get a waterproof speaker so you can jam all you want, wherever you want.
8. Overalls

Not a want but a need. Overalls are back! Like a kimono, another cute overlay for a bathing suit.
9. Beach blanket

Better than a towel, and prettier, too! The perfect spot for some pictures, and a big enough space for tanning and enjoying the sunshine.
10. A bathing suit that makes YOU happy
