What to Pack for a Day at The Beach

Beach Blanket Hacks – There are so many different beach blankets you can find. We like to find a beach blanket that folds up into a bag so you can easily transport it and that dries quickly.

Fitted Sheet Hack – Use a fitted sheet as your blanket. You can place your cooler and bags to hold the sides up inside the fitted sheet. The sheet will go up higher and help keep the sand out. Which is pretty cool plus cheap.

Beach Bag – For the beach, you need a big beach bag for your towels but also one that has pockets to hold smaller things like your keys. The bonus is finding one that will also brush off the sand.

Sand Toys – Save money when traveling by picking up some beach toys at the local dollar store or grocery store when you get there.

Beach Hack – Put the toys in a mesh bag so that all the sand falls out. I often pick up a mesh laundry bag from the dollar store and throw all the beach toys in there. It’s a cheap and convenient way to hold all your beach toys.

Hide Your Money – When you’re ready to head to the water, do you get nervous about leaving your purse or wallet on your beach blanket? Nothing ruins a beach day like having your money stolen.

Beach Hack – Hide your money in an empty can of Pringles or a Chapstick holder. Thieves will think it’s just food and ignore it.

Bring a bag to throw out all your trash. If you plan to picnic or even just bring snacks, its nice to have a small plastic bag to throw out all your trash.

Beach Clothes – If you plan to be in the sun all day, it’s a good idea to wear a protective swim shirt or rash guards and a hat with SPF. This will help keep the sun and harmful rays off your skin.

Sun Tent and Umbrella – Keep your kids out of the sun and cool on your beach vacation with an umbrella or beach tent. Our favorite beach tent pops up and is set up in minutes, which is great when you’re keeping an eye on excited kids at the beach.

Bring Baby Wipes – Use baby wipes to get sand off your hands before you have a picnic lunch or snack.

A trip to King Harbor Marinas Redondo Beach wouldn’t be complete without a visit to The Redondo Beach Pier, where you can enjoy panoramic and coastline ocean views while checking out 50-plus dining, shopping, and entertainment venues. Among the favorites are Chic at the Beach, with a collection of caps, T-shirts, sweatshirts, and jackets, many with a “Redondo Beach” logo; Kobe Pearl & Gem Co., where you can hand-select an oyster containing a cultured pearl, or if you’re lucky a rare black pearl, that can be hand-set in yellow or white gold, or sliver; and family-owned and operated Tony’s on the Pier, with a duo of bars, seafood specialties and a second-floor “crow’s nest-lookout” room offering eye-catching views from Palos Verdes to Malibu and Catalina Island and Mai Tais served in souvenir glasses.
