Products / Travel

Going to the beach is fun. Coming home with sand in your wallet, make-up and phone is not. Neither is getting your valuables wet. Luckily, there are plenty of beach bags out there to not only solve your beach-related woes, but look great while doing it. Here are five stylish bags looking to accompany you on your next beach day.

 

Authentics Rondo Shopping Bag ($19.50–30)

Made with semi-flexible polyethylene, this bag is virtually indestructible, waterproof and stackable — all qualities that make it your perfect beach companion. It not only makes for a nice beach tote, but also works as a grocery bag (hence the name) and wastebasket.

 

Mara Hoffman Rays Vinyl Bag ($140)

The vibrant design on this tote won’t fade in the sun, nor will it suffer any damage from the sand. The fact that it’s easy to clean doesn’t hurt either.

 

Beads Large Boat Tote by Hable Construction ($148)

The simple totewas made sturdy to survive the beach.

 

Small Colored Zip Top Tote Bag from Land’s End ($35.50)

Land’s End created the ultimate beach tote that holds up to 500 pounds and has a water-resistant base and trim, rip-resistant bottom and handles and felled seams that help it stand upright. The company offers you the option to have it monogramed as well.

 

Lug Carryall by Mar y Sol ($79)

Like the name suggests, this tote can carry just about anything. Plus, with its drawstring closure and inside pockets, you can be sure your things are secure.
