The beach is a great place to spend a summer's day, but after cooling off in the water, eventually you have to eat. Sometimes it can be difficult to figure out what to bring to the beach, considering the abundance of sand, sun, and seagulls. But with some careful planning, those challenges can easily be overcome. Some foods hold up better than others on a hot day, like bite-sized fruits such as strawberries, oranges and apples. Watermelon is also a good choice since it's so hydrating.
