Lead that easy-breezy beach bum life with these ideas!

The warmth of the sun in the sky

The sand shifting between our toes

The fresh breeze swaying the tall palm trees

The little crabs scuttling around

Isn’t all this what you think of, when you think of the beach!

The one thing that a beach bum can never get enough of, is beaches, and why not!

Beaches can help us relax in so many ways – from the sound of the crashing waves to the sight of the sun shining, everything about a beach is so soothing and calming. When you can be somewhere near the beach, wouldn’t it be easy enough to just forget the tiredness and monotony of the mundane world!

Being at the beach can helps us connect with the elements – water, earth and wind - which might be all that we need to feel more at peace inside and out.

Relaxing and recharge and rejuvenate – that’s what you do at a beach!

Kids in particular love to be at beaches, even though they might not the relaxation or stress busting that we might – their priority is to have fun! To make their beach stay more fun and enjoyable, Jibble & Cuzzi has everything they need!

What is the beach bum life

What is beach bum’s meaning, you ask?

A beach bum is the term used for a person who loves to spend a substantial duration of time at the beach, and prefers to lead a hassle-free, happy-go-lucky lifestyle. They like spending their time at the beach, surfing, sun-bathing, or just sprawling on the sand.

The prime priority of a beach bum is their relaxation and pleasure; they also prefer to live near a beach, or at least visit the beach very frequently. For them, the beach is the perfect place to relax, rejuvenate and re-bound.

Doesn’t it all sound supremely fun and while it might not be possible for all of us to become beach bums, you can always steal a few days from your busy routines to live that life, especially with your little ones!

Tips to lead a beach bum life

Leading a beach bum life is an art! And here are a few things to do it right:

  1. Although you may want to explore many beaches to satisfy your thirst for the perfect one, it will be better that you find a beach you love and make it your regular spot. A quiet, private beach or a busy hot-spot –the choice is entirely yours. So, shortlist the top five places for a beach bum life which are accessible to you, and finalize from those.
  2. Don’t forget to pack all the essentials with you – mats, lotions, beach wear hats, towels, beach chairs, umbrellas and a lot of beach toys for kids!
  3. Make the stay at the beach more fruitful by engaging in some kind of activity. If you are a calm one, go for yoga, meditation and the likes. Although you might be able to do walking, jogging, beach-zumba and the likes, a beach bum might not be interested in getting too active!
  4. Don't shy away from trying new things at the beach - surfing, snorkeling, or diving – the options are plenty.
  5. When you are at the beach, BE THERE! Enjoy the simplest pleasures and the smallest things there – the sound of the waves, the smell of the water and the warmth of the sun!
