Ever taken a newborn to the beach?

beach tent spf 50 image

I am going to Florida Sunday. I will be there 3 nights and 4 days. I have a 2 1/2 month old as well as other children. I bought a beach tent with spf 50 and earth's best organic all natural chemical free sunscreen for him. Has anyone done this? What was your experience?
I understand people saying "too hot" or "sandy."

So I'm wondering, people who live near the beach, do they move inland when they have newborn's?

It's hot where I live... just as hot as Florida, I live in Georgia.
note: baby is healthy.... and i won't be on beach b/w hours of 11am and 4pm

Answer
JUST TAKE AN UMBRELLA AND HAT, AND LIKE YOU SAID... MAKE SURE BABY IS NOT TOO HOT. YOU MIGHT WANT TO AVOID PUTTING SUNBLOCK ON BABY THOUGH...EVEN IF IT'S ORGANIC, IT MAY BE TOO HARSH FOR NEW SKIN. I'VE DONE IT, NO PROBLEM. YOU ARE RIGHT...JUST THINK OF ALL THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BABIES IN DESSERT AREAS, THEY DON'T MOVE TO THE TROPICS JUST BECAUSE THEY HAVE A BABY! JUST BE CAREFUL, AS IT SOUNDS YOU ARE.

We vacationed to Myrtle Beach, SC when my daughter was just 3 months old! I bought her a UV protective swimsuit with watersocks and a good pair of sunglasses. We used a big SPF 50 sun tent that she napped in no problem! We had a great time and so did she, don't be afraid to dip him in the water and let him explore the sand, we have such great memories and so many cute pics! I have a really sweet one of my daughter lying on a boogie board with a tiny wave coming in! HAVE FUN!!! Just keep him cool and covered, I just read some people say sunscreen, Do Not put suncreen on him yet, they should be at least 6 months or ask your Dr!
