So bring caps or hats, sunglasses or a umbrella . Take a sunscreen that you will put on as soon as you arrive at the beach and whenever you feel the need.

The first aid kit should generally include painkillers , disinfectant, thermometer, bandages, antihistamines . You can also take a little arnica for your children, if they love to play and run on the ideal beach to take care of the little knocks.
For half a day , take simple things like cereal, fruit, chocolate, and water bottles or bottles of water to hydrate yourself. On the other hand for a whole day , prepare a real picnic . You can keep a cooler of cold drinks. Bring a garbage bag to put the waste there so as not to dirty the beach.
