Beach Bag Goodies for the Perfect Summer Beach or Pool Day in San Diego

Sunscreen – It’s always sunny in San Diego, so be sure to pack sunscreen for a day at the beach or pool. If you plan to be in the water, make sure you choose a product that stays on after swimming, so you (and the kids) are protected from sunburn.
A Good Read – There is no better place to relax with a good book than on a quiet San Diego beach or our onsite pool. Grab the latest romance novel, thriller, or sci-fi book to escape while spending the day on one of our beautiful San Diego beaches.
Portable Speaker – Nothing says fun in the sun like listening to your favorite tunes while enjoying a beach day or poolside tanning. We’d definitely pack a portable speaker in our beach bag when planning a beach day in San Diego.
Beach Games – Our beautiful San Diego beaches are perfect for playing seaside games and having fun. No matter what your age, everyone enjoys a fun beach game like volleyball, Frisbee, beach ball, and, of course, building the perfect sand castle on the shore!
Snacks and Drinks – One of the first things we would grab to fill our beach bag is snacks and drinks! From fresh fruit and trail mix to water and your favorite juices, snacks and drinks are a must for a great day at the beach in San Diego. If you’re spending the day poolside at the Days Inn San Diego Hotel Circle, treat yourself to lunch at our onsite restaurant, Bunz Burger Joint, or grab a quick to-go burger or salad if you’re headed out for a day at the beach.
Sunglasses – Since it’s sunny on most days in SoCal, it’s always a good idea to pack your sunglasses for a day at the pool or one of our San Diego beaches. If you’re planning to swim or enjoy water sports, be sure to pack a strap for your sunglasses to make sure they stay put during your beach or pool activities.
Change of Clothes – Packing a change of clothes for a beach day in San Diego is a great choice. This is especially important if you plan to take a dip in the ocean, then visit one of our popular area landmarks! We would definitely suggest having dry clothes to change into to explore after a day in the water at our San Diego beaches.
Shoes – It’s a smart move to pack extra shoes for your San Diego beach day! For a relaxing day on the shore, a pair of sandals or flip-flops are perfect. However, if you want to explore one of our amazing beaches, like Shell Beach or La Jolla Cove, you may want to bring shoes for walking along the paths, trails, and sea caves at these popular beaches in San Diego.
Hat/Visor – A floppy hat or sun visor is a good choice to add to your beach bag for your beach vacation in San Diego. Not only do they provide protection for your face from sunburn, but they also keep the sun out of your eyes during your day at the beach.

After a day at the beach, we suggest you enjoy our daily Happy Hour at the hotel with wine, champagne, cocktails, or draft beer to unwind. Take a dip in our refreshing pool at the Days Inn San Diego Hotel Circle, which is open 7 days a week from 8 am to 11 pm for guest use. It is a great way to cool off after a day in the California sunshine! After splashing around for a bit, grab dinner and drinks at Bunz, for the best burger in San Diego or some delicious fish tacos.
