Sun, sand and surf. Whether you plan on soaking in rays or catching that day’s swell, make sure you’re properly equipped for a day by the ocean. Start by keeping yourself protected with a good SPF and some UV, polarized lenses, and then pack the essentials: trunks and a towel, flip-flops and a hat. Invest in a sturdy, understated tote bag to stow your carry, and hit the road.
