What to Pack for a Weekend Beach Getaway

Summer is the perfect time to head to the beach but before you dig your toes into the sand, you should first consider what you’ll be wearing both in and out of the water. Make sure your bag is packed with all the essentials to take you from the beach to dinner to a night club.

Brushed denim jeans. You may not wear them on the beach but trust us, you’ll regret not bringing them along and they are great for casual evenings or nightclubbing.

A comfortable pair of chinos. We suggest the Classic Cream Chinos for beach resort ready wear. Take along a couple of pairs of shorts as well as bathing trunks that can also be worn as shorts.

Two dress shirts. Choose one solid color, preferably a button down in light blue or pink and one checked or gingham. Don’t forget a belt, dark brown or black leather.

At least three pairs of shoes: flip flops for the pool, the beach and the casual boardwalk strolls; sneakers or loafers to go with the jeans and chinos and one nice pair of formal shoes, cleaned and polished, for the fancy evening dinner out.

Clean underwear, at least two white undershirts and a Dopp Kit with all your toiletry essentials.

Don’t forget an easy beach read, your phone charger and plenty of cash.
