what things to bring when going to the beach?

Hi there, I've lived down the street from the beach my entire life...so I know exactly what you need :) First, bring 2 towels instead of one because if you decide to go in the water the one you lay on won't get dirty and wet with water and sand. Sunscreen is very important since you do not want to get sun burned...which can hurt and look bad. Bring sunglasses. Bring some snacks....bottled water, sodas, sandwiches. If you like to read bring a book or magazine. Beach chairs and umbrellas come in handy also. Do you like to surf or boogie board?? Bring those. Bring a frisbee or if there are volleyball nets...bring a volleyball with you. Bring pales and shovles with you so you can build a sand-castle and other great things! Hope this helps. :)
