KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR CHILDREN

Children tend to wander off. Unfortunately, on a beach, this means they can quickly struggle to get back to you as they may not be able to locate your spot.

PROTECT YOURSELF FROM THE SUN

It’s also a good idea to have an umbrella to give you some protection during the hottest part of the day. This will prevent sunburn and reduce the likelihood of sunstroke.
