It's not summer to me unless I spend a lot of time on beaches. I crave the time-has-stopped feeling of spending all day in a place where it's impossible to do anything useful. A lifetime of hanging out on sand near water has taught me that it's easier to achieve beach zen if you plan ahead and bring the right gear—the difference between a great day at the beach and sandy headache often comes down to what you pack.
Bring these essentials to the beach
First, instead of showing up with a bleached-out, threadbare number, consider a microfiber towel. They're more absorbent than regular towels, they dry faster, they're lighter, and they can be cheap: less than $10 for 71"x32" towel with a cool mandala design. This picnic blanket with an attached strap is a higher-end option, at $19.99. It's easy to carry, waterproof, and versatile.
Next, you'll need shade. I'm going to speak up against beach umbrellas: They're a bear to set up, and a sudden gust of wind can cause them to take flight, turning them into dangerous projectiles. For a better option, try the Shibumi Shade. This ultralight piece of fabric floats on the breeze as advertised—as long as you've got a little wind. If there's no breeze on your beach (lucky), pick up a canopy style sun shield.

Ft. of Shade, Compact & Easy to Carry, Sets up in 3 Minutes, Designed in America $305.00 at Amazon Get Deal Get Deal $305.00 at AmazonI always use Banana Boat sunscreen because it's what they tend to have at the drug store—but this "Light as Air variety" is also much celebrated by dermatologists for being, well, light, with no white cast (so it's great for your face).

Over the last few years, electric hydrofoils have taken over the waves off Southern California (at least the beaches for people with disposable income), and whenever I see one, I think, "Yeah, humanity has reached its peak." This Waydoo Flyer EVO hydro-foil is one of the best electric hydrofoil for beginners, according to The Inertia.

They've come down in price so much lately that you can get a nice inflatable paddle board for not too much.
Keep yourself entertained at the beach with these on-land gadgets
Doing nothing on the sand is the personal goal, but you don't want absolutely nothing to do. So pack these "almost nothing" things to do.
Next, don't forget to bring a camera. I love my GoPro. This small camera is rugged as hell, fully waterproof, mounts onto literally anything, and has almost no learning curve. Check out this glowing GoPro Hero 13 review for an in-depth look.
GoPro HERO13 (Hero 13) Black - Waterproof Action Camera with 5.3K HDR Video, 27MP Photos, 1/1.9" Image Sensor, Live Streaming, Webcam, Stabilization + 64GB Card & 50 Piece Accessory Kit - Bundle $499.99 at Amazon Shop Now Shop Now $499.99 at AmazonBringing a guitar to the beach is like wearing sunglasses at night. Most people shouldn't do it, but some people should always do it. "The beach will damage my delicate guitar!" you might be saying. That's why you need a carbon fiber guitar, like this Klos Deluxe acoustic/electric. It can plug right into an amp and it's practically indestructible—a feature that will come in handy if you're playing "Wonderwall" through your cooler.
And don't forget an extra charger: I like this Poseidon Nano. It's small but packs eight hours of go-juice. Plus, it’s water-resistant.
Finally, I have heard rumors that there are people who don't like the beach—who don't see the fun of doing nothing all day in the hot sun. Those people need to hang a personal air conditioner around their necks. It will keep them cool until they can convince everyone else it's time to leave.
