Summer Essentials- What I keep in my beach bag that I can’t live without…
Ya’ll me and the husband are kid FREE in Florida this week it’s been so long I’m not sure I know how to act. I’m here for the sunshine and as much beach time as possible. Take a look what’s in my bag for a full fun day so I don’t have to go back and forth to the resort. All I need is my bag and okay maybe the…. Tiki bar!
Whether you like to lug around your summer must-haves and beach basics, a properly stocked beach tote is essential in promising you’ll have a fabulous beach escape.
These are my beach bag must-haves:
- Bottled Iced Coffee I’m a caffeine junkie I admit it!
- Every beach bag needs a towel mine happens to be super cute and monogrammed (Hey I’m from GA we monogram everything!)
- An assortment of reading materials is defiantly a MUST. Hello relaxation.
- Sunglasses not only protect my eyes from the bright rays, but the perfect shades add a flair of style at the beach.
- Suave Body wash is ALWAYS in my bag in case I use the outdoor shower at the resort… I’m good to go and my favorite scent refreshes me perfectly!
Pull together these beach bag essentials and tuck them in a cute tote and you are ready for the beach.
What items to do you toss in your bag for a full fun day in the sun on the sand!! I’m a gypsy beach girl at heart and when I go to the beach I’m there to stay on the sand!!
When it comes to my body wash I’m picky I can’t help it my ALL TIME FAVES ARE:
Cocoa Butter & Shea (This is DEF my beach pick)
Ocean Breeze
Tropical Coconut

Yay for a little getaway!! I love the smell and variety of Sauve products!!
I love those Suave products and ngl, I love showering outside lol when I was little my grandfather rigged one up to our garage and I’d be under that thing all the time!!
Thats an interesting giveaway
Sunglasses and sunscreen! Those scents all sound loveley!
These always smell so good!!!
I love the beach! Do you know if this brand is cruelty free?
I’m with ya on being picky about body washes girl! I need them to not strip my skin of all its moisture.. and I love the iced coffee in your bag lol caffeine is a must!
I, too, am so picky about my body wash- the smell and the fell can vary so much between brands! Thanks for sharing this one!
This is great! Living here on the Jersey shore, I need to remember these when making my own beach bag.
I definitely agree with the variety of reading materials. Nothing says relaxing by the water like a great book or magazine!
I love Sauve body wash, its my go-to!
Suave is so underrated! Their products always smell so good & they don’t break the bank. I also keep chapstick & a pair of headphones in my bag in addition to most of the stuff on your list! Great post – thanks for sharing!
All beach bag musts! An iced coffee and reading materials…yes!
And every caffeine junkie says yes! Coffee is a must have with beauty essentials. Perfect combo!
I’ve always really liked suave! Their scents are amazing!
What a good point on bringing body wash to the beach for the outdoor showers! I never think of that!
We’re headed to the beach next week so this is perfect!
What a good list! I’m definitely a caffeine junkie as well!
Never thought to keep this in my beach bag.
Oooh I always love when bloggers shout out affordable products. I’ll check these out!
I’m mad for anything with coconut for the shower, Tropical Coconut variety is just my style!
I cannot say anything about the product. As I am not aware or not available in my country. But I did like the write up. But outdoor showers with that product sounds fun.
It’s the first time I heard about Suave but already impressed by the variation of the products they have. I’d love to check in the local store here if the have Suave products.
I lovebirds suave! Affordable and smells great!
Perfect essentials for the beach!
Great list, as a fitness athlete i always carry protein bars, water bottle and other gadgets like my headphone, dslr and tripod 🙂
Great holiday list of products and essentials here. We don’t have Suave products here in Ireland but if I see them in the future here I’ll be sure to give them a try out.
Suave is such an amazing brand with so much to offer. I love that they have so many scents to choose from.
Sunscreen, water, and snacks are a must for my beach bag! I’ve never thought about body wash, but now I may have to pack some.
The Suave bodywashes sound lovely especially the cocoa butter one. Sunglasses are a definite must for me, especially on a trip to the beach! x
This is an awesome list! I also love protein bars. I collect water bottles and my headphones are a must, beach or not! Thanks for sharing!
Water, towels, tissues and sunglasses are must in my beach bag. Suave products looks cool and I have never used them. Definitely will try these products specially cocoa butter bodywash.
Suave is just great. With such a huge variety of scents to choose from, it is actually a brand you can never get bored of.
Thanks for the list.
Great essentials! I love Suave body washes! They always have such great smelling scents, and they leave my skin feeling so soft!
They always have a nice selection of products too. They smell nice as well!
Outdoor showers is an absolutely genius idea! I’ve never heard of this brand before but I had a quick google of it and their range looks pretty good!
I am a user of Suave. I really like the scent of the ocean breeze, It leaves my skin so soft and smooth. And the scent after bathing is still on my body. So refreshing
This looks like a great essential for beach. I do really like Suave especially that coconut butter & shea, I really love the scent of it.
Those are great things to have at the beach. I use a lot of them myself. And cold coffee is great idea for us coffee-lovers.
My beach bag contents are similar to yours! The only thing different is that I always take a medical emergency kit with me, complete with all our rescue meds.
Lucky you being in Florida, I live in Ireland where we have no need for beach bags as it is always raining. Have to admit to do love cocoa butter and shea and anything that smells of coconut. We don’t get that brand here in Ireland but when I’m next in the States I’ll have a look for it.
I keep the same essentials in my bag except the coffee. I’ve only been to one of the beaches you mentioned :(. Need to explore more!
Living in Florida I feel like a lot of these were car must haves since you never knew when you might end up at the beach!
The creams look great, I am sucker for nice smelling creams, in various scents.
Oh, I have a feeling these smell absolutely amazing!! and enjoy your florida time alone girlfriend!!
Definitely keep sunscreen, sunnies, mags, body wash in my bag too! Love these
Sunglasses and coffee…yes! Love it! 🙂
Suave has never done me wrong! And I’m super jealous of the vacay. Enjoy!
I love the Tropical Coconut scent and yes, bottled Iced coffee is a must for me too!
Ocean Breeze is my favorite. It’s a simple and fresh scent that isn’t too overpowering!
With Purpose and Kindness
This made me want to try the Suave Collection! Great post!
Suave is one of my favorite brands!! I love this post!
I am from Florida! I hope you had lots of fun!!
A good book is always a must! 🙂
You’re right by me!!!! First, I love that body wash… and I love the beach!
So relaxing to be on the beach without kids. I want to try the tropical coconut!
Oh I bet those smell delicious!
Love summer reads and summer fragrances! Great essentials!
Love your list! I like the idea of taking a few beauty must haves so you don’t have to go back to the room all the time! So smart!
Would love a little getaway this Fall! Heading to Bowen Island in October with some friends and can’t wait!
Bottled iced coffee is a big one for me too. I need caffeine more than ever lately.

Oooh, that tropical coconut scent sounds like something I would love! Thanks for sharing!
I’ve never tried Suave body wash. My beach bag musts are lip balm, sunscreen, and my epipen.
Great list for the beach! Hope you had fun in Florida!
