The coconut lotion sounds YUMMY!!! I love the sunnies too ... although I'm a bit jinxed when it comes to sunnies so I tend to only buy cheap pairs! :(

Im so not keen on coconut scented products, just cant go there - but love the Chanel sunnies......Im loving the new versions of sunscreen which are non-greasy, and also cant go to the beach live without my beach hat!

Bikini, towel, sunnies, hat, sunscreen, water, are a must at the beach.

Those thongs look so fun! I want. Must try that coconut water sometime soon too.

Cocobella coconut water in mango flavour definitely a favourite, for rehydrating during the day. But I can't ever leave home without my rayban sunglasses and a good book to read at the beach!

Sunscreen, sunglasses, SPF lip conditioner, hat, water and face wipes are my beach essentials. I occasionally wear a swim rashie top and board shorts.
