1. Floaties: Stay Afloat in Style
When it comes to boat days, safety is key. But who said safety can’t be stylish? Don’t forget to pack some trendy floaties to keep you afloat and looking fabulous. Whether you opt for a majestic unicorn or a sassy flamingo, these inflatable companions will make sure you’re the life of the party (and the sea).
2. Coastal Fashion: Dress to Impress the Seven Seas
Embrace the coastal vibes with some stylish coverups, straw hats or baseball caps, and boat sandals or shoes. Don’t forget to accessorize with a hat and a pair of sunglasses to complete your coastal look. Ahoy, fashionistas!
3. Cooler: Keep Your Drinks Cold and Your Spirits High
No boat day is complete without a trusty cooler by your side. Fill it up with ice-cold beverages and refreshing snacks to keep you fueled throughout the day. Cheers to that!
4. Waterproof Speaker: Jam to the Rhythm of the Waves
What’s a boat day without some tunes? Bring along a waterproof speaker to keep the party going, even in the middle of the ocean. Blast your favorite summer hits and let the rhythm of the waves guide your dance moves.
5. Sunscreen: Protect Your Skin from the Fiery Wrath of the Sun
Spending a day under the sun can be heavenly, but it can also turn you into a lobster if you’re not careful. I swear by Elta MD! I use it on my face daily, even if I don’t plan on being in the sun all day. Remember, a sunburn is not a souvenir you want to bring back from your boat day adventure.
6. Insulated Stainless Steel Cup: Don’t forget to hydrate!
When you’re out on the boat, it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement and forget about the basics, like staying hydrated. Why choose Yeti? The classic Yeti design is sure to fit in the boat cup holders without falling out like some competitors!
7. Sunglasses: Stylish or necessary? Maybe both?
Sunglasses are not just a fashion statement, but a vital accessory for any boat day adventure. I tend to go for the classic look and reach for aviators most boat days! They protect your eyes from the sun’s harmful rays, reduce glare, keep your eyes safe from debris, and make you look like the coolest sailor on the seven seas.
8. Hat: Your personal umbrella, but more stylish.
First and foremost, a hat is your best friend when it comes to protecting yourself from the sun’s harmful rays. A hat provides shade for your face, keeping you cool and preventing those pesky sunburns.
9. Games: Amp up the Fun Factor
Keep the good times rolling with some entertaining games. From classic card games to water toys, there’s no shortage of options to amp up the fun factor. Challenge your friends to a game of Skip Ball! This game is great for when you park your boat at an island and you can hang at a sandbar!
10. Positive Attitude: Ride the Waves of Fun
Last but certainly not least, bring along a positive attitude to ride the waves of fun. Embrace the unpredictable nature of boat days and go with the flow. Whether you encounter a sudden rainstorm (which can happen most days in Florida) or get lost in a sea of laughter, remember that the best memories are often made when things don’t go as planned. So, let go of expectations and enjoy the ride!
With these top 10 essentials, your next boat day is guaranteed to be a splash. So, grab your sunscreen, put on your coastal fashion, and set sail with style. Adventure awaits!
