Safe Fun in the Sun!
Virginia Beach beckons with its sandy shores and endless summer vibes. But with any vacation, prioritizing safety ensures a relaxing and enjoyable time for everyone. Here are some tips to keep your family secure during your Virginia Beach adventure:
- Know Before You Go: Research current beach regulations. While restrictions have eased, some areas might have limitations on gatherings or beach access hours. The Virginia Beach website (https://www.vabeach.com/) is a great resource.
- Sun Smarts: Pack plenty of sunscreen (SPF 30+) and hats for everyone. Reapply sunscreen frequently, especially after swimming. Remember, shade is your friend – umbrellas or pop-up tents provide welcome breaks from the strong sun.
- Water Safety: Never underestimate the ocean’s power. Always supervise children closely around water. Familiarize yourself with rip current signs and designated swimming areas patrolled by lifeguards.
- Be Beach Savvy: Keep valuables like wallets and phones out of sight. Invest in a waterproof pouch for essentials you need close by.
- Accommodation Awareness: Inquire about your hotel or rental’s cleaning protocols. Consider bringing sanitizing wipes for high-touch surfaces. Opt for takeout or delivery to minimize crowds if you’re concerned.
With a little planning and these safety measures in mind, your Virginia Beach vacation can be a memorable experience for the whole family.
