It can be uncomfortable when you have to stand in scorching sunlight.
However, the best part about the summer is enjoying the outdoors.
Spending time on the beach with all your friends around, rubbing tanning lotions on their bodies, sipping cocktails, lying in the sun and surfing in the sea water, is surely a nice picture to imagine.
Now that you are preparing for a party on the beach, there are a lot of things you need to consider other than just the tanning lotion.
When you are planning a beach party and acting as a host, you need to do everything you can to make your guests feel comfortable and have fun.
First of all, think about the invitations you are going to send.
It is a great idea to send invitations with a tropical theme.
For creative ideas, head over to your nearest party supply store and fetch some inexpensive items that would be perfect for a tropical theme.
For example, place the invitation on a coconut cut in half and with a straw inside or paint or write a note on a paper and stick it on the coconut, and deliver the coconut.
Another idea is to simply printout invitations or cards with pictures of surfboards or purchase inexpensive shovels and pails with a note attach to it.
Next, on the list are the decorations you need for the location which will make it exciting and cheerful with a beach theme such as plastic balls, surfboards, and buckets with sand shovels.
You have the beach and that is where people will spend most of their time, so you do not have to worry a lot.
Be sure to have plenty of umbrellas and lounge chairs for guests so they can be comfortable and not worry about getting sunburned.
Around the bar area, you should put up a few accessories to give a feeling of a beach party.
Surfboards are a good idea to set this up.
Have a DJ around that area, to play a variety of tunes while people enjoy the food and drinks.
You can also make the beach towels serve the purpose of tablecloths to give a more cheery look and place flower pots or buckets filled with wild flowers in them are also a great way to decorate the tables and elsewhere.
As for the food, it is better to keep it simple.
A good idea is to have crab cakes, shrimp, skewers, beach fries and tropical fruits like mangos and pineapples.
Fruit tarts will also be a nice selection.
You also need to a have a variety of cocktails.
Popular ones are Guava Blush, Mai Tai and Mango Daiquiri.
As for desserts, wave cakes and seashore cakes are good ideas.
You want your guest to have a nice time and have fun at your beach party.
Therefore, you should also have some fun activities for them that they will like to be a part of.
Fun activities that most of your guests will enjoy are kite flying, beach volleyball, a treasure hunt game or a contest that involves sand castle building.
With all that, your beach party is going to be a huge hit!
