Planning a beach weekend getaway and not sure what to pack?  Here are some fail proof packing tips.

1. Swimsuits – Pack two swimsuits or swim trunks for your trip.  This will mean that you won't need to put on a wet suit!

2. Shorts and Tees – Put two pairs of shorts and three matching tees in your overnight bag.  It is best to mix and match them.  

3. Dark Jeans – Dark jeans are perfect for day, night, casual, fancy.  Done!

4. Sweater or Jacket – It can get chilly at night or even in a restaurant, bringing a light sweater or jacket in a neutral color (white, black, navy, tan) will pair with any outfit.

5. Footwear – Bring a pair of flip flops and a casual, comfortable shoe for any easy day to night transition.

6. Active Wear – If exercise is on the agenda, don't forget appropriate foot and exercise gear!

7. Accessories – Men should pack a belt and ladies can accessories their tees with choppy, big jewelry.  A good sun hat is a good idea as well.

Don't forget to bring towels, lotion, bug spray, and maybe a small emergency kit.  These tips will have you ready to head to the beach for a get away weekend.
