It's summer or almost is, the sun is at its height and the temperature is rising- time to go to the nearest beach! Relaxing and fun, the beach is one of the best places to be during summer. All you have to do is get some fun-loving beach buddies(or go by yourself to get some alone time), pack your bag and go! But wait, what should you pack??? Today I will show you what are the 25 beach essentials to pack and how to find your perfect swimsuit.
What to pack:
1. Swimsuit
Swimsuit, the most important item to bring to the beach. There are millions of swimsuits, but how do you find YOURS? Here is a small guide:
One-piece or two piece?
One-piece if: You're in for the swimming or you're not comfortable in 2 piece. It's much safer so you don't end up losing your top or it rising up.
Two-piece if: You're just going to relax, tan, or just spend time with your girlfriends.
You can still wear a 2-piece for swimming but a 1-piece is more ideal and you can still wear a 1-piece for lounging.
Swimsuit for your body
If you're long or tall
- Try horizontal stripes or nappy fabrics
