It’s August, and summer is winding down. But before the beach trips, picnics, and pool parties end, stock up on these summer gadgets.

Summer is winding down, but that shouldn’t end the fun. Here are some summer gadgets to help with the last of the golden days.

For the swimmer:

We all know that ears can become sore and tender when water stays too long in the ear canal, especially in these later summer months.

Keep your ears safe from water and pressure during watersport activities with Pluggerz Swim Earplugs. The earplugs close the ear canal for protection but do not affect hearing. Flexible silicone and hypoallergenic material maintains its shape to keep ears dry.

For the Scratcher:

If you are anything like me, summer means that your legs and arms are permanently itchy. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

Whether tied stern-to, at the dock or anchored close to shore, prevent mosquito bites with the Thermacell Radius Zone Mosquito Repellent. Powered by a rechargeable, Lithium-Ion battery, Radius creates a 110-square-foot mosquito protection zone that lasts more than six hours on a charge, and its scent-free, DEET-free refill lasts up to 40 hours. Sounds like a good idea.
