What do you wear on the beach in the UK?

[EnidTheInvisible]

If you spend the day at the beach, what do you wear?

thermals

in hot weather?

Shorts I suppose?

Or short combat type things?

A vest?

Scuba diving kit?

An invisible cloak for you and crocs for the DDs?

A raincoat and wellies?

I'm not sure I should be answering on a style thread but here goes ....

I wear board shorts and t shirt and take a hoodie and combats to put on if it's cold and a tankini to put on if it's hot. Flip flops on my feet.

Depends on the weather. T-shirt and shorts if it's warm enough. And sunblock.

I don't wear bikinis or swimming costumes though.

socks. boots. jeans. top. rollneck sweater. raincoat.

can't remember I managed to get stripped down to a swimsuit, I was certainly prepubescent at the time and my knees probably went mottled orange and blue

you utter freakazoids

it gets very hot here! deffo bikni weaher

An embarrassed, self-conscious expression...

enid are we talking hot?

why would it be diff to what you'd wear on a beach overseas? assuming it's beach weather of course

I recently got an accidental look at the reflection of my stomach a few days ago..... Nobody is going to see me in a bikini.... ever

from skin up:
bikini
short cotton skirt
vest top
shirt
hoodie/cardie

god yes
last summer ds3 and i used to go alone at about 10 am on a weekday
all little preschoolers there
really calm
suin on sea
gentle lapping of waves
w ed have lunch then come home
it was so hot we had to take a parasol

which would be, btw, a tankini or swimming costume + linen kaftanny affair

swimming costume and then floaty dress on top that can be whipped off and a zip up gap hoody for the chills.

loads of sunblock and flip flops so no sandy socks!!

Sunbathing is not a good idea imo so I prefer to cover up; I think you stay cooler if you are covered tbh.

Hate swimming, especially in the sea.

If it is sunny and hot - a bikini plus probably shorts and a vest top

was wondering as I went to the beach unexpectedly today (we were nearby and it just happened)

was in jeans and t-shirt

felt sooooooooooo wrong

also there was a family there and the husband was wearing a suit

he looked bonkers

I roll up my trouser legs, tie a knot in each corner of my hankie and wear it on my head.

jeans and t-shirt not on-and-offable enough.

suit - what point was he making? (apart from the point that he was bonkers!)

Jeans and a strap top with a shirt over and a cap to keep the wind from blowing my hair everywhere & flip flops.

An anxious expression as I scan the horizon for anyone I know.

loving the suit look
very formal

enid what were the rest of them wearing to match the suit?
