Summer Travel Essentials
Jul 29th 2025
Headed out for a summer golf getaway? Whether ir's a weekend trip with the girls, a member-guest, or a full-on golf vacation, packing the right gear can totally change your trip. The last thing you want is to be overheated, sunburned, or stuck with too many outfit changes. Here are some of our favorite women’s golf travel essentials you’ll be glad you packed.
SUN PROTECTION THAT WORKS
We all know sunscreen is important, but it’s just not enough when you’re playing 18 holes under the summer sun. That’s where UPF 50+ golf apparel comes in. A lightweight long-sleeve top plus a bucket hat is a game-changer for keeping your skin safe and your face shaded.
Pro tip: Skip clothing with “spray-on” UV protection. It washes out after a few rounds. Brands like IBKUL and SanSoleil make their fabrics with built-in UPF that lasts wash after wash.
BREEZY OUTFITS FOR HOT DAYS
There’s nothing worse than feeling sticky and sweaty halfway through your round. Look for golf skorts, polos, and layers with mesh panels or moisture-wicking fabrics that let air flow through. Styles like the Tail Seraphina Pleated Mesh Skort are lightweight, breathable, and cute enough for wherever your golf trip takes you.
SHOES THAT WORK ON THE COURSE OR MAIN STREET
Trying to travel light? Pack golf shoes that can double as street shoes so you don’t have to bring an extra pair. The Royal Albartross Buckingham is perfect, t’s comfortable on the course and sleek enough for dinner after your round. One pair, all day.
A TRAVEL BAG THAT ACTUALLY PROTECTS YOUR CLUBS
Your clubs are the last thing you want to worry about when traveling. A golf travel bag like the Sun Mountain Kube Travel Cover is a lifesaver. It’s strong, easy to pack, and folds down into a compact square when you’re not using it. Bonus: it won’t take up your entire closet when you get home.
CROSSBODY BAGS
Crossbody bags are a travel essential because they’re hands-free, secure, and surprisingly spacious. Whether you're navigating an airport, exploring a new city, or heading to the golf course, a crossbody keeps your essentials close without getting in the way. The adjustable strap lets you wear it comfortably across your body, helping prevent theft and shoulder strain. Plus, with smart compartments and easy access to your phone, passport, or lip balm, it makes staying organized on the go way less stressful.
PROPER EYEWEAR
The right sunglasses help you see better, protect your eyes, and keep you comfortable on the course. Choose lenses that enhance contrast, frames that fit securely, and always go for full UV protection.
