Beach Day Family Essentials

We know that being a parent is the best, but also pretty tough; and no matter how good a mom and/or dad you are, you sometimes just cannot possibly be on all fronts. An entire day at the beach isn’t what it was anymore, a towel, a bikini, and a bottle of water and you were ready to hop in the car to enjoy a nice book near the sea; today a trip to the beach for you and your tribe requires some organization and planning. But don’t worry, we have you covered with a complete check-list to not forget anything on your next beach trip and keep everyone happy and entertained all day.

For The Little Ones

For the little ones, these organic and very cute towels will be even more fun, and can’t you just imagine your kid(s) wrapped in one of these!

For The Grownups

Double towels are a must for family beach/lake day! On top of your individual towel, bring an extra large one to lie on the sand, for all the family (the minis and the fully grown) to have a nice playtime, picnic and snacks, as well as naps for the luckiest of us!


For Everyone

If you have kids and love the outdoor, you already know that a cooler is a must to carry everywhere for a day out. Theses vintage looking coolers aren’t just nice looking bags, they’ll keep you picnics, snacks and water/drinks cool all day long (in style). The best part is, they’re made of natural materials and are (of course) cruelty-free.


For The Little Ones

For The Grownups

You’re set with a cooler, but you need to pack your veggies and fruits somewhere, and these boxes are the best ones to do so. They are all plastic free, durable, stainless, non toxic, and dishwasher safe - which as a parent, you need them to be.


Toys make a trip to the beach (the sand box, or the park) even more fun! These toys are all 100% free of harmful chemicals such as BPA, hypoallergenic, soft and durable, and made of silicone, except for the float, which is made from BPA free, eco-friendly PVC.


For The Little Ones

For The Grownups

To be able to play all day under the sun, the whole family needs to be extra careful with all the UV rays (especially at the beach).
Our selection of kids hats aren’t only the cutest, and a good sun protection, they’re made of 100% organic and very soft cotton.


For The Little Ones

For The Grownups

Each of these sunscreens are organic and will suit all the family, from the youngest to the oldest. We recommend a minimal protection of SPF40 (SPF50 ideally), apply 30 minutes before exposure, and renew every 45 minutes to an hour, and after each swim.

For The Whole Family

These items may seem like accessories but a cabana (or an umbrella) is a must when you spend the day at the beach (especially with your little ones!).
No matter how much you enjoy the sun, its warmth, a nice tan and everything that comes with it, the sun is as bad as it is good.
