Lindsay Silberman — Wed, 16 Apr 2025 14:33:13 +0000

There are few things that I love more than a getaway to a beach destination. Relaxing in a lounge chair while listening to the waves is honestly just hard to beat.

Whether you’re headed to the Bahamas, Miami, the Maldives, St. Barths, Hawaii—or somewhere else warm and sunny—my beach packing list will have you covered.
