The countdown is on! There are only 100 days until summer and I can’t wait for warmer water and sunny beach days! I want to help you be prepared with all of the best products and equipment, wether you are charging the waves, snorkeling to see some fish, or just lounging on the beach getting a tan. Below is a list of my personal favorite brands and products that I use for every surf or beach adventure!
Vertra Sunscreen
Their sunscreen has been a lifesaver for me, especially when I was a surf instructor and in the sun ALL day and week! Their face sticks are water resistant (up to 80 minutes), making them stay on for an entire surf session, and also Reef Safe (oxybenzone and octinoxate free)!
My favorite face sticks are:
– Shane Dorian Kona Gold SPF 38
– Invisible SPF 45

Here are a few of my favorite prints:
– Changing Tides Foundation Beach Eco Towel
– Puppy Party Beach Eco Towel
– Tie Dye Beach Towel
– Haze XL Beach Towel

Surf Grass Changing Mat
These handy mats make changing in and out of your wetsuit a breeze and it helps get any extra sand or dirt off of your feet! You can also use these as a mat before going into or coming out of your tent, as a mat for your dog to lay on, or even to change into ski/snowboard gear!
They come in 3 sizes: 20”x25″, 25”x30”, and 42”x42”
You can also find them on Amazon HERE!
