What to take with you to the sea. What to take to the sea? Only the bare essentials

In order for you to enjoy your vacation, we have compiled for you a small instruction on the fees that you need to take with you to the sea for a good rest.

Before fees start:

- check the weather and climate for the rest. Forecasts are not always accurate, but to have an idea about big picture need. You may need to take an umbrella for rainy days, and a warm cardigan for cooler evenings.

- make a list of what you will do during the trip, where you will go, what places you will visit, you will try dishes, buy souvenirs. So you won't forget anything and have a great time.

- if you are the head of the family or responsible for the fees, then 2 weeks before the trip, start making lists of what you will need to take with you. This will help you not forget anything, and at the last minute you will not need to run to the pharmacy for motion sickness pills or to the store for sunscreen. Start packing one or two days before your trip.

List of things to take with you to the sea:

1. Wardrobe
- Beach wear: swimsuit, swimming trunks, flip flops, headwear, pareo and so on. It is advisable to take spare clothes with you to the sea, in case something breaks or does not dry.
- casual wear: Take only the essentials. As practice shows, we usually “walk” 50-60% of the things that we took with us on vacation. Be picky, plan your fashion looks for every day, think about what you will wear. Don't forget to bring pajamas or sleepwear.
- shoes: in addition to beach shoes, you need to take sneakers or sneakers that will come in handy for walking after the rain and for excursions to mountainous areas. Sandals and sandals for every day are also useful. For solemn exits to a restaurant or anywhere, take beautiful shoes.

2. Medicines
– We recommend taking with you antipyretics, painkillers, cold medicines, ointment for bruises and sprains, motion sickness pills, special medicines necessary to maintain your wellness. Also allergy medications, activated charcoal, patches, bandage, ear drops.

Read also an article about what it is and how to avoid it.

3. Hygiene products and cosmetics
Toothbrush and paste, shampoo in sachets or small bottle, razor, shaving cream, deodorant, comb, face and body cream, make-up and sunscreen.

4. Money
If you are going on vacation abroad, change the currency at home. Then you will have cash upon arrival in another country and you will not have to wander around in search of an ATM, exchange office or bank. Find out in advance the addresses where they are, especially if you have trouble with foreign languages and it will be difficult for you to ask for directions local residents. If you are on vacation in your own country, we also recommend having cash. A lot of goodies are always sold on the beaches, but you won’t run to an ATM because of a cheburek, the location of which, perhaps, you don’t know yet.

5. Documents
Make a photocopy of your documents and carry them with you just in case, especially if you are on holiday abroad. You can also scan all documents and send them to your email, if necessary, you can go to any Internet cafe and print them. If the child is traveling with one of the parents, then you must take with you a power of attorney for the child to travel abroad.

6. Beach accessories
For children at sea, you should take: sleeves, a vest or a life buoy. For adults - an air mattress, a beach ball. If you do not rent a sun lounger, then you will need a mat on which you will lie and sunbathe on the beach and an umbrella from the sun. At the place of rest, you can buy a fan to fan yourself from the heat.

7. Finishing touches
Before you go on a trip, pay all bills so you don't have to worry about it. Remove all perishable food from the refrigerator, and it is best to defrost it and leave it empty. Take all rubbish out of the house. And it will be just wonderful if you spend general cleaning before your departure. Then you will be pleased to return to a clean house. Leave the coordinates to your relatives: the name of the hotel where you will stay, your approximate route.

With the onset of summer, many families go on vacation to the sea, and often parents take small children with them, at this moment the important question arises of what to take with them to the sea with children. There is a whole list of things that not only parents, but also the baby may need.

You will have to think over not only the list of what is needed on the vacation itself, but also think about what things you should take for the period of the trip or flight to the place of rest. Not many parents know what documents, food, medicines and essentials may be needed during the holidays. We will try to create a complete list of what you need so that there are no problems during your vacation.

Clothing and footwear

It is worth starting from this point, because clothes and shoes are very important for young children. You should not take a lot of things for the child, because it will only take up extra space, and in the end it may not even be useful. The list of things will make it possible not to take anything superfluous, but also not to forget something important and necessary. The most necessary items of clothing and footwear include:

1. Underwear for parents and baby. For themselves, parents can take as many sets as they need, while the child will need about five sets of T-shirts and shorts.
2. Bathing suit. Boys should take two swimming trunks, girls should take two, two sets are needed to be able to use a changeable swimsuit.
3. Hats. It is best to purchase a panama hat or a cap for a child made of natural material; in such a headdress, the baby’s head will not sweat. It is worth taking two caps so that you can change the hat if necessary. Panama may be needed not only on the beach, but on a walk in the park.
4. Shoes. The child may need different shoes, sandals are taken for sunny weather, in case of rainy or cloudy weather It is worth taking light, closed shoes. Beach shoes are bought separately, it is best to pay attention to slates if you have to hike sand beach. If the beaches are pebbly or rocky, you should buy rubber slippers for your child, which have a thick sole.
5. Warm clothes. Even if the weather forecast at the resort promises warm and sunny days, you should not forget about warm clothes, as the weather can change at any time, and it can be cool at sea in the evenings. The child may need a warm jacket, sweatshirt or tracksuit.
6. Basic clothing. A boy may need at least five T-shirts and three shorts. Girls should take sundresses, dresses, skirts and T-shirts in the same amount. It is better not to take jeans and jackets with you, as they will only take up extra space in a suitcase with clothes.

For those who are looking for an answer to the question of what to take with them to the sea with children, you should also include a nightgown or pajamas for the child in the list of things.

Documents and money

You can hear many stories from acquaintances that all things were collected, and already upon arrival at the airport, vacationers realized that they had not taken some important documents. It is worth taking care of the preparation of documents and money first of all, so that later you do not return home for the most necessary things.

Any vacation trip is accompanied by a collection process. We decided to make this task easier and, together with our regular readers, have compiled a list of things to do on vacation for the whole family. It focuses on the standard Russian family, a suitcase in which a woman will collect.

Men can relax and take only money and passport with them 🙂

It is better to start packing your suitcase 2-3 days before departure, as there is always something in the wardrobe that has drastically decreased in size over Last year gone out of fashion or just disappeared somewhere.

Documentation

The main thing on your list is passports and money. Everything else can be bought, but without a passport or money, the vacation will be hopelessly ruined.

Without documents, your vacation can be covered with a copper basin already at the airport, so passports and money should always be in your area of ​​​​attention, not only during the preparations, but throughout the entire vacation. So let's start with this:

• Passports (check the validity in advance, at least 6 months from the date of entry into the country of destination);
• Photocopies of documents (in case of loss and not to carry the originals with you);

• Banking access (pin generator, password card, etc.)

It is better to break the money into several parts and divide between family members, and one bank card can be put in luggage. In this case, if you lose your wallet, you will not be left penniless in your pocket.
