Quick Tips
To get sand off without the feeling of abrasives, simply bring talcum powder or baby powder, sprinkle on the skin, then wipe clean with a towel..
Hide Your Stuff
A person shouldn’t leave valuables inside their car as thieves are on the prowl at beaches, then again, it would be super hard to find a diamond ring if you lost it in the sand or in the water. Perhaps your best bet is to leave all valuables at home.
Ocean Times
* Although rare, shark attacks typically happen between their feeding hours of 3pm-5pm. If you need a break from the water, that would be a good time to stay out.
* Barracudas love shiny objects! I’ve witnessed a girl laying on her floating bed dangling her fingers in the water have a Barracuda mistake her diamond ring for a fishing louer. Ten thousand dollars later, her ring finger was sewn back on by a surgeon. Best to keep jewelry at home.
* If you find someone getting bit by a jelly fish, the best thing to do is to urinate on the bite, it will make the stinging go away until you can get to the hospital.
Lake Tip – watch for poison ivy, it loves to live by sandy lake beaches.
Keep Your Phone Charged
Having fun isn’t a problem, it’s what to do should something go wrong. By keeping your cell phone in a Packwrite bag, it not only can stay charged at all times, but it can be sealed into a water tight plastic pocket.
