There are Costco staples that members can always look forward to, like the rotisserie chickens and food court hot dogs.
As the seasons come and go, so do some of Costco’s products. And now the warehouse’s summer must-haves are ready to for you to stock up on.
Here’s a look at the summertime essentials you might have forgotten Costco offers.
1. Swimwear

This summer is proving to be a hot one, so get ready to cool off with a nice jump in the pool.
Costco has a variety of swimsuit options for adults and kids.
For women, there are about a dozen options this year, including long sleeves and brand names like Lands’ End, DKNY and Hurley. For trunks, there are options from brand names like Quiksilver and Nautica.
For kids, there are multiple swim sets from Lands’ End and Tommy Bahama.
2. Sunglasses and hats

Costco is selling multiple styles of sunglasses this season, including aviator, cat-eye and sport styles. Many pairs come with polarized lenses, which provide extra protection from the sun’s glare.
Keep both your skin and your eyes covered with a hat. This year, Costco’s options include a bucket hat, a sun hat and a tech hat — all of which offer UPF 50+ protection.
3. Mosquito protection

Pesky mosquitoes and other insects are a surefire way to interrupt outdoor summer fun. Costco provides a few different repellent methods for members.
This OFF! spray from S.C. Johnson uses picaridin instead of DEET, and this EcoSmart Mosquito Fogger set is a natural option made with essential oils.
Costco also currently has an outdoor LED insect trap that covers 0.25 acres and, in case mosquitoes get inside your home, a Zevo flying insect trap set.
4. Sunscreen

Sunscreen is a must in the summer to prevent sunburn and decrease skin cancer risk. It’s also a great year-round product to protect your skin and prevent premature skin aging.
Costco’s sunscreen selection this year includes face-specific sunscreen as well as all-over body products, including a couple of spray options.
5. Shade

Escape the summer heat and glaring sun with some proper shade. This can go further than just an umbrella at the beach. Costco is ready to help set your home up for summer temps too.
Members can cover their outdoor spaces with gazebos, awnings and stationary umbrellas. Keeping cool isn’t just for outdoor activities though. Using window coverings can take some pressure off your AC and help keep cooling costs down.
6. Beach towels

Get ready to dry off from your water adventures with Costco’s beach towels. Most of its selection is 100% cotton, including two options that are 100% Turkish cotton.
7. Coolers

It’s important to stay hydrated in the heat, and Costco has a collection of traditional coolers to help keep your drinks refreshingly chilled. Other options include cooler backpacks, totes and carts.
8. Grills

Costco’s selection of BBQs and grills can help anyone live out their grilling fantasies. Options range from large grill setups to portable grills. Or, drop the delivery apps and DIY your dinners with a pizza oven.
9. Water sports gear

Make the most of the summer weather by spending time outside when you can.
Costco will help you stay afloat with kid- and adult-size life jackets. There’s also a selection of pool noodles and floats. Keep the fun going at home with a large, blow-up splash pad or slip-and-slide.
Check out Costco’s snorkeling gear before your next trip to the beach. For outdoor treks, you can gear up with paddle boards and kayaks.
10. Camping gear

There’s nothing like spending a summer night with chirping critters and a fire ready for s’mores.
Costco provides the basic camping necessities like lanterns, but it also carries some more luxurious camping items like portable generators, hammocks and tents that hold up to 10 people.
