Planning a beach day with your fearless Grom or Rascal? Whether they’re paddling into big sets, being towed off the back of the boat, or diving into their first wave, one thing’s for sure: when they’re comfortable, warm, and sun-safe, everyone wins.
That’s why we’ve put together the ultimate checklist of kids’ beach gear - with plenty of room for personality, play, and comfort.
A kid’s wetsuit that moves with them
Comfort is essential. Our RASCAL wetsuits are made for motion - lightweight, stretchy, and cut for real kids with real energy. Short legs, removable hoods, easy zips... it’s everything they need to splash, roll, paddle, and repeat. And did we mention they come in colours you can’t miss on a crowded beach?
Reef-safe sunscreen
Pair your RASCAL suit with planet-friendly SPF. Apply it before their suit goes on, especially on hands, faces, necks and feet - wetsuits offer UV protection, but a little extra never hurts.
Water and snacks (always snacks)
Saltwater = hungry Rascals. Keep them fuelled with easy, beach-safe snacks and plenty of hydration. A full belly = longer playtime.
A towel poncho or change robe
Make wetsuit changes warm and easy. Whether it’s post-surf or a lunchtime break, towel robes stop the shivers and save the day.
Why it all starts with the right suit
At RASCAL, we believe in all-day outdoor play - and gear that keeps up. Our kids’ wetsuits are designed for warmth, flexibility, and all the wild energy that comes with wave chasing. Because when your kid’s wearing something that fits, protects, and feels great, the adventure takes care of itself.
