A wise man once said that "Summer should be fun!" That man was Kyle Cooke, longtime Summer House cast member, so he'd know best. We decided to listen to Kyle this year and put together a list of beach day essentials for every Bravo fan. If you're wondering whether that includes actual Bravo-themed merch, know that of course it does. There are also plenty of other picks to keep the fun going all season long. Scroll on for hats, towels, and so much more, like a healthier self-tanner designed by the spray tan artist to know.

After all, you don't have to be a charter guest on Below Deck: Mediterranean to enjoy a day at the beach. You just need a ride there, some games to play when you don't feel like going back into the ocean, and a cute tote bag that says "Eat. Sleep. Bravo." to carry everything in. Of course, you'll also want to stay hydrated with thirst quencher tumblers designed to keep your beverages cold, and ensure the sun stays off of your face with a fabulously floppy hat.

Now, we obviously don't want to tell Bravo fans how they have to spend their time. We just want to offer the best suggestions for it. For example, super-cute umbrella will help you stay cool in the summer sun and make it easy to identify your group after you've split up to go to the boardwalk for ice cream. Apart from using SPF, staying cool is maybe the most important part of your visit to the beach. (We've all seen what happens when a day trip heats up on Vanderpump Rules.)

While we're talking about the heat, we have to say: Temperatures don't get any hotter than in the City of Gold. Once you've stocked up for your day in the sun, take a peek at merch for The Real Housewives of Dubai Season 2. You might even be inspired to add a few pieces to your beach bag. Period. Dot.
