Drink lots of water
Being out in the sun and being active on the beach can quickly dehydrate adults and kids alike. Remember to drink lots of water to replenish fluids.
And here’s a tip, fill up plastic containers 1/4 full and freeze overnight. That way, these containers can be ice packs for your coolers and also be water which can melt and be drinkable at the beach.
