Great tips for going to the beach

Remove sand stuck to feet

Playing at the beach is fun, but having sand stuck to the soles of your feet is not so much fun. Many people complain that no matter how hard they try to wipe the sand off, they can’t get it all off, and end up wearing sand-covered shoes.

There is actually a simple solution to get rid of those pesky sand particles, which is to pour some baby powder on a cloth and roll it up tightly. Before putting on your shoes, rub the cloth on the soles of your feet, the baby powder will absorb all the excess moisture and make the sand fall off your feet easily.

Create a safe place to store your car keys

If you take your car keys to the beach, chances are you’ll lose them while running around. Try a safe place you might not think of: the side of your tire.

Take a soft branch, tie it to your key and hang it on the side of the wheel. At first glance, it may look like a blade of grass stuck to the wheel.

Store valuables

Almost everyone who goes to the beach faces a dilemma: where to put their wallet, phone, and keys? Leaving them on the beach is easy to lose, and having someone watch them is no fun.

An easier way is to hide them where no one will see them. Try wrapping your valuables in a diaper. That way, even if you leave them on the beach, no one will even bother looking.

Avoid headaches

When participating in activities such as swimming, you may get headaches due to sudden changes in pressure. This can be overcome in a simple way. That is, before going into the water, you should close your nose and mouth, hold your breath for 5-10 seconds, then breathe deeply and repeat this process 2 more times. At this time, your body will adapt to the new pressure and you will no longer have to worry about headaches.

Keep your phone dry

To protect your phone from moisture and sand, place it in a ziplock bag. Then, use a squeegee to squeeze all the air out of the bag. This way, you can enjoy your phone without worrying about it getting wet.

Cure tinnitus

If you accidentally get water in your ear and you've tried everything but the ringing doesn't go away, try this trick: Take a balloon, hold your nose, and blow it up.

While blowing, you may hear a small clicking sound in your ear, that is when the pressure in your ear returns to normal.

Keep drinks cool

Even if you bring an iced drink, it will cool down quickly in the heat of the beach. The best way is to bring a bottle of ice.

It’s easy: Fill a bottle with water, put it in the freezer, and take it with you to the beach. Now, whenever you’re thirsty, just fill it with your favorite water and you’ll have a refreshing drink.

Sand-proof rest area

To prevent the wind from blowing sand into your shoes, clothes and bags, instead of using a regular beach chair, create your own 'fortress' by spreading out a cushion and surrounding it. This resting place looks quite like an inflatable swimming pool without water, isn't it interesting?

Avoid heat for shoes

There’s nothing worse than having to put your feet back into hot sandals after a fun day at the beach. The trick is simple, just turn them upside down to keep the inside cool.

Soothes sunburned skin
