Chris & Mel
Hey, I’m Chris! My wife Mel and I love the outdoors—4WD trips, beach days, camping—you name it. But with two fair-skinned kids, keeping them sun-safe was a nightmare. Sunscreen would wash off, they’d end up burnt, and reapplying every five minutes was a headache. We got sick of the struggle, so we created the
Adventure Suit—sun-safe, quick-dry, and bug-repellent, so the kids can wear it all day without a worry. No more chasing them around with sunscreen, just more time for adventures. If you love the outdoors but hate the hassle, you’ll love Hills2Beach!

Our Story
2019
Hi, we are Chris and Mel a young couple with 2 little kids from Brisbane Australia who love to spend time outdoors. However, we faced the challenge of keeping our baby and toddler safe from the sun's harmful rays. We searched the market for a sun-safe product that would provide full-body coverage but found nothing that met our requirements, we wanted a product that would be easy to put on, take off, and change nappies.
2020
Frustrated by the lack of options, we decided to create a product that would solve this problem, and after spending a lot of time designing and manufacturing, we finally came up with a full onesie suit. The full-body coverage ensures that the child is protected from the sun's harmful rays, while the full-length zipper makes it easy to change nappies and remove the outfit when wet—essential for spending time outdoors with young children.
2021
We made sure that our product is made from high-quality materials that are both durable and comfortable for children to wear. Understanding that children can be fussy with clothing, we designed the outfit with both style and functionality in mind. It is also easy to clean, so parents don’t have to worry about stains, as the outfit can be easily washed and dried.
2022
We are passionate about the environment and wanted to ensure that our product was eco-friendly, so we decided to make it from recycled plastic, reducing plastic waste and ensuring sustainability. By using recycled materials, we have taken a step towards lowering our carbon footprint and preserving the environment for future generations. We have poured our hearts into creating this product and hope other parents find it as useful as we have. We have successfully solved a common problem parents face when enjoying the outdoors with their little ones—keeping our kids safe.
2025 and Beyond
As we move into 2025 and beyond, we are growing and expanding, bringing more innovative products to families everywhere. Our commitment to quality, sustainability, and functionality remains at the heart of everything we create. We are continuously developing new designs that make life easier for parents while keeping children comfortable, protected, and stylish. By expanding our product range, we aim to provide even more eco-friendly solutions that align with our mission of reducing waste and preserving the environment for future generations. The journey doesn’t stop here—we are excited for what’s ahead and can’t wait to share it with you!
