What Lesbian Beach Gear Are You?

My wife and I are the kind of dykes who know how to plan the hell out of a good beach day. We live in Florida, after all. So the beach chairs and umbrella stay locked and loaded in our trunk. Sometimes we even keep spare suits in there just in case. And I can fit what should be a physically impossible amount of snacks and beverages into my small cooler backpack. I think the way a person approaches a gay beach day reveals a lot about them, so take this quiz and “plan a beach day” and I’ll tell you what lesbian beach gear you best embody.

  2. Beach birks! This is especially true because if the particular beach allows it, my first activity of choice would be checking out the tidepools and rocks near the waterline to see what kinds of neat little animals are in and on them. Non-slippery shoes are key.
