Safety Precautions for Seaside Travel

Midsummer is the best time to go to the beach. Although everyone goes to the beach to relax in the summer, so the equipment requirements are not strict, but bringing the right equipment can greatly increase the fun of your trip to the beach. Some equipment is a necessity and some is a luxury. You can decide what to bring based on your itinerary.

When playing in the water at the beach, please do not exceed the safety warning line. Those who are not familiar with water should not go into the water alone.

What should I bring with me to the beach?

Necessities

Sunglasses: The sun is scorching hot, and sunglasses are a necessity to protect your eyes from the strong sunlight. Sunglasses come in a wide variety of colors and styles. In terms of style, in order to be easy to carry, you should choose sports glasses made of resin or other synthetic materials that are light in weight and not afraid of falling. It is best to have straps on the temples. The sun at the beach is strong, so you should choose darker colors. Brown and green mirrors; UV mirrors can protect against ultraviolet rays, and polarizing mirrors can filter out clutter in the light, making the scenery in front of you clearer.

Sunscreen: Women may be better at using sunscreen, but men also need to use sunscreen to protect their skin from ultraviolet rays. In addition, when applying sunscreen, be sure to apply it evenly. If it is washed away by sweat, you have to reapply it. Don’t be too troublesome. To measure the sun protection ability of sunscreen products, you need to look at the SPF value and PA classification. SPF value is a sunscreen efficacy index that prevents ultraviolet B waves, which are the main cause of skin sunburn (redness, swelling, blisters, etc.). For example, if the SPF value is 130, it means that if you don't wear sunscreen and you will get red in the sun for five minutes, under the same amount of light, you will have a sunscreen effect of 5×130=650 minutes. In addition, the PA classification is a sunscreen efficacy index for preventing ultraviolet A waves, which are considered to cause skin aging. For example, PA+ means that it can delay skin tanning 2 to 4 times more than skin without sunscreen.

Swimming equipment: If you don’t swim at the beach, it’s a waste of time and beauty, so don’t forget to bring swimming equipment. Swimsuits, swimming trunks, swimming caps, goggles, bath towels, and slippers, none of them are missing.

Luxury goods

Camping supplies: Tents are both luxury goods and frugal items. Because camping is more troublesome than finding ready-made accommodation, and the equipment itself is not cheap. But camping can save on accommodation fees and is very fun. So whether you want to live in a tent or not depends on whether you are interested in it or not.

Tents used at the beach tend to be larger and can be lived in more comfortably; it is best to have gauze and breathable ones, so that you can still enjoy the sea breeze in the tent. Moisture-proof pads and air mattresses should be brought, and the sleeping bag should not be too thick. A single-layer thin sleeping bag is enough. In particular, you need to pay attention to the fact that you must not choose a campsite on a beach that can be washed away by high tides, otherwise there is a risk of being flooded.

Awnings and beach chairs: If you are driving to the beach by yourself, you can bring these two items. There are many types of awnings, the best one is like a tent with only a roof and no sides, and is easy to fold; the kind of umbrella-shaped awning with an iron rod is not so convenient.

Cooking utensils, stoves, tableware: Picnics and picnics at the beach are also a great pleasure, but they require a lot of things to bring and complicated and meticulous preparations. Gas stoves, barbecue grills and other barbecue equipment are most suitable for beach picnics; if it is too troublesome, use a small insulated box to bring ready-made food. It is also good to have a picnic on the beach. Don't forget to bring a tablecloth; if it is still too troublesome, just I can eat in a restaurant.

Things to note when going to the beach for swimming

Preparation items:

Going to the beach in summer without swimming is a waste of time. If you want to swim at the beach, you must check it out in advance. Weather conditions, don’t prepare a big meal, but it turns out to be windy and rainy. It will be really disappointing. You should not check the weather and choose a day before starting to prepare what you want to bring that day. Usually, you can prepare it one day in advance. That's it.

In terms of food, water should be the focus, especially this summer, which is extremely hot. If you don’t prepare enough water at the beach for a whole day, you will either die of thirst or faint. In terms of staple food, you can consider preparing bread, sausages, canned food, pickles, roast chicken... It is better to have less greasy food, and choose food that is delicious, easy to carry, and not easy to spoil. It is best not to bring steamed buns and the like because of the weather. If it is hot, the meat filling will easily become sour after being stewed for a day. It is also best not to bring shrimps. Eating stale shrimps can cause food poisoning, which can even be life-threatening. Therefore, try not to bring seafood, dry goods or dried goods bought in the store. Except pickled ones. In addition, you can bring some fruits, such as: peaches, plums, pears, apples, watermelons (whole, uncut, of course), etc. Don’t bring tomatoes (tomatoes), I will not be responsible for them turning into tomato soup~~ You can take other snacks as long as you can carry them. Oh, yes, there is also garlic (what is it used for? Think about it yourself)~

Let’s talk about medicines.

What, you need to bring medicine with you when you go to the beach? Of course, this is not making a fuss~ At least bring a pack of band-aids. The reefs on the seabed are not eye-catching, and it is common to make a hole. Last year, I used a needle to pick out more than a dozen pieces bit by bit from the sole of my foot. Small pieces of shells with a size of one to two millimeters, that is worrying~~ (Hey, I won’t scare you, otherwise I will scare you away from swimming, and people from the beach will come to PK me~I’m afraid of dini~) I’ll do more in this regard Just be careful. In addition to Band-Aids, you should also bring stomach medicine, diarrhea medicine (Literin, the most popular one), and cooling oil (in case someone has a heat stroke). If you have other medical conditions, prepare more commonly used medicines. You don’t have to worry about having too much of these things, just bring them with you. A dozen pills each does not take up much space, but remember to write down the name of the product when packing so as not to damage it if you take the wrong medicine~

Let’s talk about equipment

I won’t talk about swimsuits and goggles. , if you forgot to bring it, just sit there in a daze.

Let’s talk about sunshades~ Nowadays, beach bathing beaches have ready-made “sheds” built and rented out. The cheaper ones are around 20, and the expensive ones are around 80 to 100. Of course, the price varies with the price. Generally, those around 80 are There are chairs and tables, which are not available in sheds around 20 years old. In addition, you can also bring some newspapers, plastic sheets, etc. When you are tired of playing, spread the newspapers underneath and put a plastic sheet on top, and then put your bath towel on it. At the top, you can fall asleep listening to the sound of the waves, beautiful
