Tampons are a girl’s best friend when you’re deep sea diving or surfing the waves (no pun intended!) on vacation. Make sure to toss some ‘em in your suitcase while you’re packing that itty-bitty bikini.

Tampons not your thing? No worries, babe. There are tons of summer fun activities that don’t require ya to make a splash in muddy waters. Does the beach have a boardwalk? Cruise the walk and check out games, rides and tasty eats with a sib or bestie. In a faraway paradise? Pick up a brochure at your hideaway and look out for awesome things to do, like horseback riding, zip lining and canoeing through beautiful, exotic rivers and lakes.
