Sex tips travelling for a steamy holiday

Jetting off for a dream vacation or just sneaking off for a quick weekend getaway? Here are some tips for traveling with toys and suggestions for a steamy holiday…

• Why give inquisitive customs agents something to snicker about? Pack toys in your checked luggage rather than in your carry-on bag.
• Whether you stow toys in your luggage or bring them on board for a little in-flight entertainment, remove the batteries while they’re not in use.
• It’s your personal life – keep it that way with non-staining lubes and massage oils. At best, stained linens are embarrassing. At worst, they’re costly, if you have to replace the B&B's 600-thread-count sheets.
• Traveling with kids or visiting family? Consider sex toys that go incognito, like those that resemble tubes of lipstick, rubber duckies, even pieces of artwork!
• You’re on a deserted, sun-drenched beach. There’s no one around for miles. Before you indulge that sex-on-the-beach fantasy, a quick reality check. Spread out a large towel – a blanket’s even better – to keep intrusive grains of sand out of delicate places.
• Sexperts may advise against underwater penetration, but that doesn’t mean an end to your sex-in-the-sea fantasies. Pleasure your partner orally (make it a game – who can hold their breath the longest?) or tuck a waterproof toy in your beach tote.
• Too hot to sleep? Pop an ice cube in your mouth before, er, you-know-what. Your partner will love this refreshing and surprising treat.
