This post is all about the beach
bag essentials that you can gift to your loved ones or stock up for your own
beach bag!
Beach vacays are a great way to
relax on a hot summer day. If you live in a hot and humid climate, then picnics
on the shore must be your favorite weekend activity (at least that's the case
with me!).
Since we spend so a good couple of
hours to catch up on Vitamin Sea, carrying the necessary items with us is a no
brainer. So let’s look at the list of items that are useful on your day out on
the shore, as well as they make for an extremely practical and amazing gift
item for any beach lover!
LIST OF BEST BEACH BAG GIFT IDEAS:
1. Beach bag
So first and foremost, you don’t need to carry a designer handbag to the beach (I know most of us are eyeing the Christian Dior beach bag as soon as the summer arrives ;) ) but literally any practical bag would do. And by practical I mean to say something that will hold all your essentials securely and is sturdy + perfect size for you, like this bag. These spacious bags are an excellent choice for a gift.

2. Sunscreen
Sunscreen is essential to save your skin from the extended UV rays exposure. For oily skin types like mine, a gel based or spray one is a great choice. Don’t forget to keep reapplying throughout the day!
For face, Elta MD clear sunscreen and La Roche-Posay dry touch sunscreen are a great choice since they are suitable for sensitive skin as well.
For body: choose from Supergoop, Aveeno , CeraVe mineral sunscreen or SunBum as they are easy to apply and have a good amount of SPF to protect your skin.
3. Beach Sun Hat
A hat is not only a cute accessory to your outfit, but will also protect you from sun exposure. My sister in law gifted me a similar one and it is my most loved beach-bag accessory!
4. Hand Sanitiser
Carrying a Hand sanitiser on the go is now the new norm! And even before this pandemic, I would always take one with me on the beach for quick sanitization purposes. There is always a cute little bottle in my bag, be it work or picnic tote! Antibacterial wipes are equally easy to carry and serve the purpose :)
5. Beach Towel
A beach towel serves multiple purposes like drying your body, for lying down on the sand or simply as a wrap if you want! These beautiful and funky ones make up for a perfect beach bag gift item.
6. Scarf / Cover-up
Scarf can be used for a wrap over your swimming costume or simply to cover your hair if you don’t prefer a hat. This silk one has such a luxe feeling, makes it ideal for gifting!
7. Hair accessories like a cute pair of scrunchie, hair clips and hair bands....not only make you look stylish but also keep your hair in a place when you like them to be tied up :) A lovely present idea for your bestie.
8. Water bottle
Don’t forget to keep yourself hydrated! Cocktails are awesome but the good old H2O is also necessary for our bodies! This portable one makes a pretty and practical gift option.
9. Book
A good book always a great gift option! Its amazing to have an easy summer read accompanying you on the beach. Currently in my beach bag: The last thing he told me by Laura Dave
10. Small first aid kit...just for any unseen mishaps. Especially if you have the young ones with you, this will prove to be very useful.
11. A small toiletry bag with hand wash, face wash, makeup wipes ... i prefer to carry the smaller travel friendly bottles of these. That makes it easy to carry and I could easily refill them on my next trip. This cute waterproof toiletry bag will make an excellent gift!
12. Portable Bluetooth Speakers... perfect when you are having a big beach/pool party with all your folks in the surrounding (still be mindful of the sound level for other people's privacy). Aren't they such a cute and useful gift option?! :) OR waterproof earbuds in case you like to enjoy your music/audio in private :)
13. Lip balm with SPF perfect to keep your lips hydrated and protected from UV rays.
This cute and compact detangling hair brush to tame your tresses. Makes a perfect gift option too!
A cool retro pair of shades is a must-have beach accessory and an awesome beach bag gift item!
16. Beach Sandals
A cute and comfy pair of beach footwear is a must have for beach day. If you like the flip flop style then this is a good sturdy pair, or if you have wide feet then this birkenstock unisex sandal is a trusty comfortable option, which makes it a perfect gift option!
