After months of lockdowns and social distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, summer has arrived and many of us are looking forward to spending time at the beach. However, with the virus still prevalent in many parts of the world, it’s important to approach beach visits with caution and take necessary measures to protect ourselves and others. Here are some tips on how to go to the beach safely this summer.

Maintain social distancing

The first and the most important measure is practicing social distancing. While we all love to play in the sand and sea with our family and friends, it’s important to maintain a distance of at least six feet from one another. This means not sharing beach towels, chairs or other beach accessories unless they are sanitized completely before and after use.

It’s also important to avoid crowded areas like the boardwalk, beach bars, and restaurants. Instead, opt for a less crowded area on the beach where you can spread out and enjoy the sun, sand and sea without being in close proximity to others.

Wear a mask

While wearing a mask is not mandatory when you’re at the beach, it’s important to wear if you’re in close proximity to others, especially if you’re going to busy beach areas, like pathways, restrooms or if the distance between two beach-goers is within 6 feet. While it is not always practical to wear a mask while swimming or sunbathing, it is highly recommended that you wear a mask while walking around the beach.

Carry hand sanitizer and disinfecting wipes

It’s more important than ever to carry hand sanitizer and disinfecting wipes with you when you go to the beach. Use hand sanitizer frequently to sanitize your hands and only touch objects when it is necessary. Use disinfectant wipes to clean chairs, umbrella rods or any other accessory you have brought with you. It’s also important to remember that the virus can stay on surfaces for up to 72 hours, so ensure you clean all the objects before and after use.

Avoid public restrooms

Public restrooms are high-risk areas when it comes to the spread of COVID-19, as many people will be using them, and We often have to wait outside these restrooms, which isn’t suitable for the risk of social distancing. Therefore, it is better to avoid using public restrooms to minimize the spread of the virus by only using restrooms at home before heading to enjoy the beach.

Be aware of the local regulations

Before planning a trip or heading to the beach, be aware of the local regulations and restrictions in your area. They may include capacity restrictions, sanitation measures, and other guidelines for safe public gatherings.

In conclusion, your safety and the safety of others should be a top priority when visiting the beach this summer. It’s important to maintain social distancing, wear a mask, carry hand sanitizer, and disinfecting wipes, avoid public restrooms, and follow local regulations. By taking such precautions, we can ensure a fun, safe and happy summer season at the beach.
