Packing your page
Beach weather
Sand, sun and salt water, followed by dinner in town. The task is keeping wet, sandy things away from everything else and still packing one outfit that works after dark.
How to pack for it
- Pack two swimsuits so one can dry.
- Choose sandals that can get wet and a separate pair of shoes for the evening.
- Bring or buy sunscreen for body and face, and reapply through the day.
- Keep a sealable bag for wet swimwear and sandy items.
- Cover up when you leave the beach; some places have rules about swimwear in town.
