Essentials You Need for a Surfing Trip

April 29, 2021

Leaving for a fun-filled surfing trip with your favorite friends this season? Traveling to remote locations in search of the perfect places to surf never gets old. As much as all of it sounds cool, it may also be a potential challenge to go surfing without a few safety tips and essentials at hand. So, if you do not want to come back home with densely tanned skin or cuts all over your body, you may want to read this blog until the end.

In this article, we have listed some of the important things that you should never forget while going on a surfing trip.

A Travel Bag

An ergonomic travel bag to accommodate all your important stuff will be a big help you lend yourself. If you do not want to spend your precious surfing time trying to force all your essentials into a tiny backpack, you may want to consider a good-quality travel bag. A single, massive travel bag is always a smart choice compared to two small bags for the same.

If you are a school-going student, your school bags aren’t such a bad idea either. They are not only convenient to carry but are spacious enough to keep your surf accessories in place.

Swimsuits and Board Shorts

It is very much clear that your swimsuit will be completely wet while you are surfing. So, you must have an extra pair of dry swimsuits and board shorts with you which you can wear if you want to change.

There are also some sports t-shirts for men and women that are available to avoid rashes on the skin. Therefore, you must wear them while you are resting or have taken a break from surfing.

Board

What is surfing without the Surfing board? Since surfing boards are the most precious part of your surfing essentials, you may not want to miss them at all. Although there are various boards available for rent, it is always best to buy your surfboard. We promise; they are totally worth it. The fact that you need not return your surfing board once you finish, leaves you with more reasons to go surfing soon again.

Beach Towel

Beach towels are very important. Since you would be completely soaked in water, you may need something to wipe your face or even to cover your body.

As these towels are quite bulky, they take more time to dry out. For that purpose, you can carry a lightweight towel in your backpack.

First Aid Kit

First aid essentials mainly tweezers, antiseptic wipes, bandages, a painkiller, waterproof tape, and a sterile saline solution are a genuine necessity during your surfing trip. Since cuts and bruises are inevitable to avoid, you may want to have your safety in the backpack.

Sun Protection

You should never forget your sun protection on a surfing trip, as your body would be completely exposed to the sun and your skin needs to protect against the ultraviolet rays. So, never forget to carry your sunscreen even if it may all seem like rainbows and butterflies outside.

The Bottom Line

A surfing trip could offer all the fun of the fare if you have the right essentials at hand. The above-mentioned list clearly shows all the necessary things you must carry to meet all your requirements on the trip. With these in your backpack, you will only be one step away from having the best surfing experience of a lifetime.
