Before tossing sandy beach towels and clothes into the wash, give them a good shake outdoors. This prevents excessive sand from clogging your machine.

For heavily saltwater-soaked items, consider a cool water pre-soak with a touch of mild detergent to help loosen salt crystals.

Act fast on sunscreen stains! Pre-treat them with a bit of dish soap before washing, as the oily residue can be tricky to remove.

Wash beach towels separately from clothing. Use a gentle cycle and avoid excessive heat in the dryer to keep them fluffy.

Hand-wash delicate swimwear in cool water with mild detergent. Lay flat to dry, away from direct sunlight, to maintain elasticity and color.

Rinse rashguards immediately after use. Wash on a gentle cycle and hang to dry to protect the fabric.

Empty sand from beach bags. Wipe down with a damp cloth or wash on a gentle cycle if the material allows.

Always double-check pockets for shells, rocks, or leftover treasures before washing to protect your clothes and our machines.

Wash beach cover-ups according to their fabric care label. Gentle cycles or hand washing are often best for delicate materials.

When washing bright beachwear, use color-catching sheets to prevent dyes from bleeding and keep colors vibrant.

Even clothes not directly in water absorb salt from the air. Regular washing prevents buildup from damaging fibers.

Establish a laundry routine right after returning from the beach to tackle sandy and salty items promptly.
