Summer Essentials For A Road Trip To The Nearest Beach For Men

The rising temperatures are acting as a green signal for hitting the nearest beaches at the slightest excuse. You might just be waiting for the next long weekend to take that trip to the seaside, but you need to prepare for it from before! Not only women, but men too have a list of beach essentials that they can’t do without on a vacation by the sea. The cool guys out there may want to relax like a beach-bum but you surely don’t want to look like one, do you? So here are a few must-haves that will make sure that you have an uber-stylish, well prepared and super fun time amidst all the sun, sand and sea!

 

Sunny accessories

Even the men who don’t wear sunglasses on an everyday basis make it a point to carry their trendiest shades out to the beach. The seaside sun makes sunglasses an absolute necessity. A cool pair of sunnies not only gives a stylish boost to the beach look, but also protects your eyes from the harsh UV rays of the sun. The next best thing that can elevate any boring look into a sunny one is a beach hat and with a straw one you are all set to rock the relaxed tropical look in style!

Beach boys

What’s a holiday without some trendy clothes to flaunt in all the innumerable pictures? A beach vacay, of course, calls for the coolest & comfiest of your summer outfits. Taking the correct pair of swimming shorts is an absolute necessity so pack one in a classic blue or black, or patterns like checks or stripes. You can also pack in a pair of drawstring shorts to change into after your refreshing swim. For hitting the beach bar, you can go for a light coloured short sleeved T-shirt to pair with shorts and you are all set to impress the girls around! Carry a pair of light chinos, graphic tees & tropical print shirts for a day of sightseeing around the seaside town.

 

Footwear tips

We know you will possibly want to kick off your shoes as quickly as possible once you hit the sand, but sand under the sun can be hot. Fun flip-flops or trendy sandals are the best options to take on a beach holiday. Rubber flip flops are perfect for lounging in the sand as well as going into the sea. You can also go for light weight, athleisure slip-ons that will help you make an effortless transition from the beach to the bar.

These are a few of our must haves for a beach vacation without which your trip can turn out to be a disaster. Don’t forget to take a big, canvas bag that will hold all of your beach essentials and even more. Also, pack a book for the journey or the long, lazy mornings by the sea; and you are all good to go!

 

Protection is better than cure

Even the roughest & the toughest of men need to protect their skin from the harmful rays of a strong sun that result in an unwanted amount of tanning by the end of your beach vacay. Hence, the ever-essential and useful sunscreen lotion is an absolute must on the beach. Don’t forget to pack in your sunscreen and use it generously before heading to the sea. Also, always carry a nice big beach towel to lay out on the sand under the summer sun. This towel will not only only help you dry yourself after a few dips in the ocean, but also help you use it to lounge on, while sipping a cocktail & reading a new thriller!

 

Holiday gadgets

Men and gadgets can’t be kept away from each other for long, so even your trip to the seaside isn’t complete without your favourite toys. You can take your super cool water-resistant watch with a chronograph dial that will help you set high style standards at the beach. Don’t forget to pack a portable speaker or wireless headphones that will help you to pass the time leisurely listening to your favourite tunes blaring at the background. A camera is a must for taking all those sunny photos by the beach – with different lenses for portraits and seascapes. And not to forget, a waterproof case to protect your cell phone from all the water around!
