If you’re considering a beach vacation, it may be worth your time and money to consider beach camping instead. Camping is a great way to save money, but it can also be a fun way to stay at the beach too. If you are new to camping on the beach or need a few new tips, here is the ultimate guide to beach camping.

Ultimate Guide to Camping on the Beach

Choose the Best Campsite

There are several factors to keep in mind when determining the where of where you will camp. If you want to be on the beach or near the beach, it will depend on what you plan to do at the beach. Also, check the ground, making sure that where you want to put up your tent is relatively level.

Don’t Assume You Won’t Need Different Equipment

Just because you have spent years camping in the woods doesn’t mean you have everything you need to camp at the beach! Beach camping is a little different, and you may need a few additional supplies like sand pegs for your tent.

Choose the Right Tent for Beach Camping

It gets very windy and rainy at the beach. You will also have more exposure to the sun. This means that you may need to consider getting a different kind of tent for beach camping.

Keep Track of the Tides

If you are setting up camp on the beach, keep track of the tides! You don’t want to come out of your tent only to find that your campsite is about two waves from being demolished!

Be Prepared for Sun Exposure

While there are trees to provide coverage in the woods, you won’t find much of that at the beach. Between the water all around you and the sun beating down, sun exposure can be a huge concern! Bring plenty of sunscreen, coverup clothing and a hat.

Stay Away from The Dunes

There is one main reason why The Dunes are not a place for camping. The reason is wind! When the wind picks up, all that sand is going to come barreling into your tent!

Bring a Good Water Supply

While you’re playing and swimming on the beach, it’s easy to forget to stay hydrated! With saltwater all around you, don’t forget to bring plenty of fresh drinking water and water to rinse yourself off with.

Get Creative With Trash Storage

Wind will blow your trash everywhere! Make sure that you secure your trash or get creative with how you store your waste.

Beaches Are Crowded During the Summer

Everyone will head to the campgrounds during the summer months, and the beaches are no exception. If you are camping on the beach, keep this in mind. Your private oasis will quickly turn into a crowded place to camp.

Consider a Beach-Friendly Campsite Near the Beach

If getting sand everywhere isn’t your idea of fun, consider choosing a campsite near the beach instead of on the beach. This will help keep some of the sand out of your tent, and you can still head to the beach whenever you’d like.

No matter what beach you are planning to visit, hopefully, these tips have helped you better prepare for your trip!
