What to Pack for a Bug-Free Beach Day with Kids
Your Naturally Kind Checklist for Happy, Bite-Free Adventures 🏖️🧴🦟
Planning a beach day with your little ones? Sunshine, splashes, and sandy toes are the dream, but nothing spoils the fun faster than pesky mosquito bites or itchy skin. That’s why we’ve created this bug-free beach day checklist, featuring our trusted Skin Shield and Haven ranges, to help families enjoy nature, without the bites.
Here’s exactly what to pack for a fun, safe, and naturally kind beach day.
1. Skin Shield Spray (250ml or 100ml)
Whether you’re building sandcastles or chasing the tide, mosquitoes don’t take the day off. Our Skin Shield Mosquito Repellent Spray is the ultimate beach bag essential.
✅ DEET-free and non-toxic
✅ Safe for children from 6 months+
✅ Hydrating formula with vitamin E and essential oils like citronella and lemongrass
✅ Available in 250ml (family size) and 100ml (travel-friendly)
How to Use: Spray generously onto exposed skin before heading out and reapply regularly especially after swimming or towelling off.
💚 It really works and it smells amazing!
2. Skin Shield Soothing Cream for Babies
Gentle enough for newborns, this baby-safe repellent cream offers soft, soothing protection for delicate skin. Perfect for tiny arms, legs, faces, and even that little belly poking out of a swim nappy.
🌿 With shea butter, lavender, and citronella
🧴 Ideal for spot application
👶 Safe for babies from 1 month
Top tip: Pop it in your changing bag or beach tote for easy reapplication throughout the day.
3. Haven Essential Oil & Candle for Chill Time
If you’re heading to the beach in the late afternoon (aka mosquito happy hour), the Haven collection comes to the rescue.
• 🕯️ The Haven Candle makes the perfect companion for beach BBQs or sunset picnics.
• 🌬️ The Haven Essential Oil pairs beautifully with a portable diffuser, ideal for shaded cabanas or camper vans.
Both are made with pure plant oils that calm the senses and keep bugs away. Because your beach day should be about joy, not swatting flies.
4. Other Beach Day Must-Haves
While you’ve got the bug protection sorted with Skin Shield and Haven, don’t forget the rest of your essentials:
• 🧢 Hats & SPF clothing
• 🧴 Reef-safe sunscreen
• 🧺 Picnic blanket or beach mat
• 🚿 Reusable wipes and water bottles
• 🍉 Snacks and fruit (keep them covered to avoid attracting insects!)
