Beach Favourites

Purple Star emoji 11 items
All of these items are beach essentials for us! We live about 15 minutes away from a really popular beach here in BC, and often like to do a last-minute evening beach trip! These items rarely leave the car in the summer months, and we use them every ...

Sand Toys

Okay. I was skeptical about these ones. They are a bit expensive in Canada but we have had ours for 3 years and use them ALLLL the time. They are light enough to carry that it’s easy to take them to the beach and other activities!

If your kids are like mine, they MUST have buckets at the beach. These ones are collapsible and take up very little space! They are perfect to keep in the car or to store in smaller spaces.

The best beach blanket. It is light, sturdy, dries quick AND sand doesn't stick to it! I have tried many over the years but this one is my favourite!

This is my most recommended item! I LOVE the Honeysuckle brand and will rave about it to anyone who will listen. Their designs are cute, the quality is top notch and I love supporting a local to BC brand!

Being a mom, I sometimes feel self concious in a bathing suit. But this one makes me feel so great! It snatches you in all the right spots and the peekaboo sheer mesh in the front is not only sexy but also helps holds the girls up!

Okay, if you are like me and hate spending the first hour of your lake day blowing up floaties, then you NEED this pump! I use it for my paddle board and am sure to keep a close eye on the PSI to not over inflate. This one stays in my car all summer ...

This little fan packs, a major punch. I love using this at the beach on the really hot days. It’s perfect for while you’re reading a book or wanting to keep the bugs away.

This is by far my favourite sunscreen. It goes on like a face sunscreen, isn't greasy or thick and leaves you skin feeling hydrated! 10/10

When heading to the beach, I love having water shoes for my little on hand. A lot of the lakes around here have rocky bottoms, so it is nice to not have to worry about little feet getting cut up on rocks. These water shoes dry quick, are really comfo...

I have a big head and have a hard time finding hats that fit me well. This one was a winner! It's well made, really cute and doesn't squish my head to the point of a headache! 10/10
