    One of my favorite activities to do during the summer is head to the beach. Since I moved to Grand Rapids, I love taking day trips to Lake Michigan. Spending the day at the beach is the perfect way to relax and spend a summer day.

    I always make sure to pack the essentials when I head to the beach. One of my must-haves for a day at the beach is Tom’s of Maine® Long Lasting Deodorant in Wild Lavender. No one wants to have to worry about odors while enjoying the beach. As the #1 Natural Deodorant Brand, Tom's of Maine provides 24-hour odor protection.
    Staying hydrated is also very important when spending the day at the beach. I make sure to bring lots of cold water and hydrating foods like watermelon!
    What are some of your favorite essentials for the beach? Do you have a favorite beach you like to visit? My favorite beach is Oval Beach in Saugatuck, Michigan!
