With summer weather fast approaching, it means beach days are on the horizon. And what better way to enjoy the beach than with a perfectly packed beach bag with all your summertime necessities!

Grab Your Swimsuit

Last thing you’d want to forget is your swimsuit… unless you're visiting a nude beach in Europe, that’s probably the only time you’d go sans bikini. But if you’re vacationing or a local to Hawaii, then swimwear is a must! At Born of the Water, whether you prefer a two piece or a one piece swimsuit, we have what you need! Chose from skimpy coverages to get your ultimate summer bronzed skin or opt for something more conservative; no matter your style, we have options for you.

Beach Tote

A beach bag is probably the second most essential piece to your beach day! Opt for a style that you won’t mind getting dirty or salty, or one that can easily be washed such as a canvas bag!

To Tan Or Not To Tan; That Is The Question

If you’re a beach babe that loves a great tan, one who prefers to be protected from the sun, or you’re somewhere between the two, then you definitely need some tanning oil and sunscreen! Born of the Water carries Ao Organics sunscreen and tanning oil that are made in Hawaii, made with organic ingredients and free of nasty chemicals that harm the reef. With their products, you can feel great knowing you’re not causing detriment to the environment OR your skin.

Cover-Up

Packing something that can easily be thrown over a swimsuit is ideal, especially if you plan on running to the store or a restaurant after a beach adventure. We recommend using a pareo/sarong, since they are so versatile. Transform a sarong into a skirt or a dress, or a tanning bed!

Towel

When all is said and done, don’t forget to bring a towel! A big beach towel is amazing after rinsing off from your perfect beach day excursion.
