Beach Essentials for the Kids


With the winter among us, what better escape with the kids than a beach trip to paradise? Here’s some beach essentials you and your family shouldn’t go without!



1.    Sunblock
Though the kiddies might resist on this one, be sure to insist on the sunscreen before they dash into the water. You may even want to consider a higher level of sun protection, like SPF 50, since kids have more sensitive skin than adults.

2.    Umbrella
Speaking of protection, it’s also smart to reserve yourself a sun tent or pack a large umbrella in case the kids need a break from the sun. This is a good option for those families with babies or infants that are too small to play on the beach as well.

3.    Cooler
Kid are always hungry –be sure to pack plenty of snacks and bottled water so you aren’t in a pinch when they decide to throw a tantrum because you didn’t bring their favorite juice.

4.    Beach Towels
Although some resorts and hotels provide guests with beach towels, be sure to pack extras in case. The last thing you need is your kids tracking their wet suits and sand into your bedroom!

5.    Sand Toys
What’s a trip to the beach without sand pails and shovels?  How about a kite, a frisbee, or even a metal detector? Not only will they have fun, but it’ll keep them busy as you dive into your favorite book!

6.    Change of Clothes
Kids are kids are kids!  Expect the dirt and the mess, so be prepared with clean, dry clothes and shoes---for everyone! It’s also a great idea to pack a couple plastic bags in your tote to separate wet clothes from the rest of your belongings.


We hope you found these tips helpful as you begin to prepare for your next beachtrip with the kiddos! For any questions on booking your next adventure, contact us today at sales@landsvacations.com.

5 Beachy Wedding Locations to Consider


Where you’ll have your wedding is probably one of the first questions people will ask when they find out you’re having a destination wedding. Still stumped? Well, say no more –these 5 locations will surely inspire you!



Mexico

Mexico is our #1 destination for weddings because of the excellent value, incredible service, and memorable experiences. Because of the abundant flights available to Mexico, and the hundreds of resorts that scatter the shoreline –this is by far the best spot for a variety of options! In fact, we have a number of resorts in Mexico that we frequent every year!


Jamaica

Jamaica has been a long-time favorite for eloping and honeymooning because of its stunning scenery, laid-back vibes, and friendly service. They also have a variety of exciting outdoor activities for newly married couples, which are sure to suit any personality in your party! In addition, Jamaica happens to be one of the easiest destinations to get legally married.


Dominican Republic

The island's charming historical quality and friendly locals will lure you in with its inherently romantic atmosphere and stunning beauty. Before holding a Dominican Republic wedding, couples will need to have their legal documents translated into Spanish, making it one of the most difficult destinations to have a legal wedding—but well worth it!


The Bahamas

The Bahamas is a gorgeous tropical climate that makes for an awesome location for year-round eloping and destination weddings. Be sure to consider the seasons before booking, as the temperature fluctuates throughout the year. We recommend visiting in in the summer, which falls between June and August. Daily high temperatures in the Bahamas rarely drop below 60°F from December to February, and the sun shines an average of 320 days out of the year!


Aruba

Dreaming of a destination wedding with the best weather and breathtaking views? Then Aruba is your winner! Aruba's the place for couples who want a Caribbean beach wedding and honeymoon—without stressing over a rain storm ruining the party. Curious why that is? Well, Aruba is so far south and well outside the hurricane belt, which makes it ideal for perfect weather. We really think you’ll love it here!



Do any of these beachy destinations sounds like the perfect place to say, “I do?” Then, visit us at https://landsvacations.com/contact  for your free travel consultation today!
