    UV proof t-shirt for midday swimming

    Like a swimsuit but covers shoulders and arms. If you get sunburned easily, this can save your skin. Sunscreen works, but it’s not perfect in the water. Most people don’t use one, but then most people have unhealthy bright red sunburns

    Sunburn relief cream, for when you screw up the sunblock application from not being used to being around the beach.

    I’m not going without a book/ereader.

    And multiple cameras.

    (Edit) particularly for the reader, I should mention “be careful of sand” and maybe have one of those little duster cans around to make sure the ports are clear. But it’s too much of what I value in between soaking in the water to not bring.)

      Do you have a good way to read without the screen being too dim / too bright? Oh maybe I’ll need sunglasses

      On the mentioning of cameras if you’re bringing an expensive one also bring a camera cleaning kit and a clean bag for your camera

      Just to make sure you don’t get sand in your camera

      Slippers

      *thongs (flip flops / sandles for you non Australians)

      Slippers are not suitable for the beach and would be ruined, once you get sand in them it’s never coming out

      I’d you’re going to do some running on the beach bring running shoes that can be easily cleaned

    Coverup, rash guard, hat. I have to bring at least 2 of everything because wet clothes don’t dry overnight here, ymmv. Goggles or snorkel if you like to look underwater. Clothes for going out to eat or bar. Hair ties, shampoo, conditioner, gel, because the beach wrecks my hair so bad, no cute beach waves here, just beach witch hair.

      I get the wild hair too… I think I might bring a swim cap as well even though it looks a little dorky

    Hat, maybe a fan if it’s gonna be particularly hot

    Also bring something to listen to, with headphones usually, but if you know that it won’t annoy others, a Bluetooth speaker can be a good addition.

    If you’re gonna generate any rubbish, something to put that in and take it away again

    I like to bring some cold beers too, but that’s obviously not for everyone

      I’m just seeing OP rocking up with a fan after reading your advice and wondering why there are no outlets on the beach

        I found a neat mister / spray bottle thing in my basement that would be nice, but i might not need it, I think there might be a breeze

    I would defenetly bring multiple Towels, if you want to wash them between days.

    And I love watershoes, you can use to swim, if you can afford them, it saves you from cutting your feet on sharp objects you perhaps oversee
