It’s summer and outside beckons. The sun is shining and it’s time to gear up for some fun in the sun. Your bag is packed for some outside activity but what’s in there? Let’s look at some essentials to throw into that summer bag.
Sunscreen
The only two things that are allowed to happen to your skin after a day in the sun are a tan and a glow. We want to be sunkissed, not sunburnt. That’s why sunscreen is a must. It protects your skin from harmful UV rays. This is essential in your summer bag.
Reusable Water Bottle
It is important to stay hydrated, especially when you are outside in the summer sun. Get an insulated water bottle that will keep your drinks cold for hours.
Sunglasses
These are a summer bag staple. Not only do they make you look cool and stylish, they protect your eyes from the bright sun. You can get polarised lenses to reduce glare from the sun.
Snacks
Snacks always come to the rescue when hunger strikes unexpectedly. For a day on the beach or when you feel like taking on treacherous mountain trails, pack a healthy mix of fruits, nuts, and granola bars to keep your energy levels up.
Towel
Going to the beach or just taking a relaxing swim in the pool? Then, a large, fluffy beach towel should be packed in your summer bag.
Power Bank
With all the photo-taking, video recording, music-listening, and social media scrolling, your phone’s battery tends to drain quickly. A power bank ensures that you stay connected and never miss capturing a moment.
Book or Kindle
Sometimes, all you need to relax is a good book. Keep a paperback or Kindle in your bag for those lazy afternoons spent in a hammock or by the pool.
Wet Wipes
Wet wipes are incredibly versatile – perfect for a quick refresh, cleaning up spills, or wiping sand off my feet after a beach day. They’re a small but mighty addition to your bag.
Hat
A wide-brimmed hat is perfect for providing extra shade and protecting your face from the sun. Plus, it adds a stylish touch to any summer outfit.
Debit Card
Payment hassles are such an anticlimax for a fun day. For seamless payments when you are out for some summer fun, you must have your debit card tucked safely in your bag.
