25 BEACH ESSENTIALS FOR BABY
1.BABY BEACH TENT
The number one beach essential when taking the baby to the beach? A safe place to keep the baby out of the sun. Get a tent like this one or this canopy/umbrella, both excellent choices with UPF 50+ protection. They are also easy to fold up and put away!
2.BABY BEACH HAT
You can't take the baby to the beach without a beach hat like this one with SPF 50 protection on hand to keep the sun out of the baby's eyes and scalp.
3.BABY SUN SCREEN
A good baby sunscreen should always be at the top of your beach packing list to protect the baby's skin from harmful rays.
5.BABY SWIM SUIT
Perhaps the most obvious item on the baby beach essentials packing list is a swimsuit for the baby.
7.SWIM DIAPERS
Your little one will probably not spend a lot of time in the water, but you'll need to pack swim diapers- just in case you take them into the water.
8.BABY POWDER
A little mom hack? Keep a bottle of baby powder to help you remove sand from the baby's skin.
9.SMALL SPRAY BOTTLE
Packing a small spray bottle and filling it up with water will come in handy when you want to clean the baby while at the beach.
10.SMALL INFLATABLE BEACH POOL
Take a small inflatable beach pool for the baby to make a splash in and cool off.
11.BEACH TOYS
It's always a good idea to have fun beach toys on hand for the baby to keep entertained.
13.WAGON
If you want an easy way to transport all these beach must-haves and your baby to the beach, consider investing in a wagon like this one.
14.PORTABLE FAN
A mini portable fan might just save your beach day when humidity and temperature rise.
15.BEACH BAG
A beach bag or tote that's spacious enough to pack everything you need for your next beach vacay.
20.MILK,WATER AND SNACKS
Whether on a beach getaway or not, the baby needs hydration and food.

Instead of carrying a diaper bag, grab a diaper clutch to hold diapers and wipes and pack them in your beach bag.

A swimsuit for sure, and a nursing-friendly swimsuit certainly makes things a lot easier if you are breastfeeding.
24.SUNSCREEN
Of course, it's equally important for you to apply sunscreen.

Hat and sunglasses for sun protection-no matter where you are this summer.
