Equipment Weekly / 3 ways to enjoy the beach while waiting to go sailing

What to do on the beach? Here are 3 products that are perfect for a trip to the seaside. Whatever the conditions, watching the sea from the beach is a lovely moment to share with friends and family.

Kalua Softy, half-paddle, half-kayak

Slightly spatulate, Kalua Softy paddles are easy to convert into kayaks. They come with a foam mat that snaps onto the board when used as a paddle. The Velcro system can also be used to attach a seat for kayak use. In this case, 2 foot straps hold the feet in place. Thus equipped, you'll be able to practice Waveski without worry. The kit comes complete with inflator, paddle and all accessories. Prices from ?690 inc.

Guy Cotten Amiral, a jacket for the seaside

The Blouson Amiral is inspired by the famous Blouson Pacha, the jacket designed for officers in the Merchant Navy. It's a warm, waterproof and comfortable jacket. The Admiral's lining is both warm and soft. It's very comfortable to wear, especially around the large collar. The Admiral is perfectly waterproof, constructed with DREMLIGHT fabric. This high-performance fabric is also highly breathable. Available summer 2024 at ?315 incl. VAT.

EQ, a brand of sun protection inspired by surfing

In 2011, Franck Bywalski, globetrotter and passionate surfer, was looking for innovative solutions for riders who, like him, were seeking a balance between their lifestyle and respect for their playground: the ocean. From Biarritz, he created EQ, a brand positioned in a niche market: surf-inspired ecological wellness products. In addition to sunscreen, EQ launched skin and hair care products, as well as technical products for sports enthusiasts. EQ does not use chemical filters, but rather sunscreens based on mineral filters and ingredients that respect the skin and the environment. Sun stick SPF 50+: ?16.00 incl. VAT.
