While we’re prepping for a beach season ahead, there are small yet significant changes we can make for a more sustainable summer. So we’ve gone digging and found the best eco-friendly products to pack with your swimmers this season.
Here are just a few of our favourite essential items that have a more positive impact on our beautiful planet.

Dry off with a bright and bold organic cotton towel
Kip & Co is firmly committed to minimising the harm to the planet in everything they do.
Each product is sustainably sourced, with their 100% cotton towels being GOTS-certified organic cotton.
You can wrap yourself in your towel knowing that there are zero harmful chemicals, irritants and pollutants from our cotton supply chain.
Lather up with a reef-safe sunscreen
Keep yourself safe from Australia’s harsh sun and our reefs from nasty chemicals.
People4Ocean’s pure natural SPF 30 nourishing sunscreen is the perfect alternative to generic sunscreens for everyday sun protection and long days spent at the beach.
As a bonus, for every tube sold, $2 goes towards saving our reefs!
A summer sip to clean up our seas
A new Lo Bros drink – Not Soda – has landed just in time for summer, and for every (zero sugar) fizzy can sold, two plastic bottles will be cleaned up from our oceans.
Every year, up to 34 billion plastic bottles enter the ocean, which is why Lo Bros Not Soda has joined forces with marine waste removal not-for-profit Seven Clean Seas in a mission to clean up our seas.
Next time you find your way to the beach, pop into any independent Supermarket, such as Ritchies and Drakes, to pick up an ice-cold Not Soda to quench your thirst.
Have an all-day beach laze on this sustainable pillow
Designed for blissful naps after spending hours in the sea.
The Beach People’s pillow is made from 100% recycled materials and designed to be used and loved for many seasons.
Family-owned and established in Northern Rivers of Australia, each product is designed in-house and committed to eco-friendly processes and reducing their carbon footprint.
