There’s nothing better than a summer day in the sun. And now that the hot summer days are here, we’re all thinking about where we can go to cool off.

Whether you are at the beach with the sand between your toes, on a dock at the lake, or even hanging out in a lounger at a pool, these gadgets and accessories will make your summer in the sun more enjoyable.

Quick-drying Microfiber Towel
We abandoned the traditional beach towel years ago and have never looked back. This handy microfiber towel is very compact and dries quickly. We no longer need to sit in soggy towels waiting for everything to dry out or packing lots of extra dry towels.

Wekapo Beach Blanket
Stake your claim to a slice of the sand down the Shore with this sandproof, quick dry beach blanket. You’ll have room for the whole family on your on little slice of paradise. The mat has stakes and pockets to weigh it down. It’s also durable enough that you can put chairs right on the blanket. And it is machine washable for easy cleanup.

Everlasting Comfort Beach Cooler
You will be the hero of the beach with this ultimate cooler. This beast holds 9 6-packs. That’s right, you can fit 54 cans of your favorite beverage in this compact, backpack cooler, and still have room left over for 4 bottles of wine. Everyone will know you brought the party. If your personal style is more chill, you can pack it with the favorite flavored water and reusable containers of snacks.
Sea to Summit Dry Bag
Years ago, someone suggested getting a dry bag and it has been a real game changer. Dry bags let you keep all your important items (camera, books, wallet, etc.) dry from dripping kids, splashes, or getting accidentally knocked into water. We usually take two dry bags with us: one for cameras and books and the like, and a second one for dry clothes that we want to change into when we are done at the end of the day.

Waterproof Phone Pouch
Pics or it didn’t happen. Take your phone into the surf or the pool with this handy phone pouch. It lets you still take pictures while keeping your phone dry. We’ve been using these for years on our travels and they have been fantastic! It’s been easier (or safer) to snap a few pics and upload to your social media or send to the family.
Beach Towel Clips
When I first saw this, I knew I needed them. These ingenious beach towel clips hold your towel to the chair to keep it from blowing away – or to stake your claim. What I really like about them is that they are heavy duty. Other chair clips can be quite flimsy, but these big clips will hold on in the heaviest winds. You never really think you’re going to need them, until you need them.
Sale
Diversion Safe Hairbrush
When I go to the pool, sometimes I just want to take a little cash to get something cold to drink but don’t want to take my wallet. Enter this super stealthy hairbrush. Just tuck your cash or jewelry into the hidden space and nobody will know they are there. It’s the perfect way to be take valuables and be discrete at the same time.
Insulated Coffee Mug
Imagine being able to take your favorite iced coffee to the beach or pool in the morning. Well, that’s my reality with my trusty Insulated Coffee Mug. It keeps my iced coffee cold for 9 hours (or hot beverages hot for 3 hours). The stainless steel, BPA-free lid is both durable and stylish.
Sale
Portable Power Bank
We tend to spend a lot of time on our phones at the beach reading news, posting on social media, or generally zoning out. It’s a bad habit we can’t break, but it also means are phones are pretty much dead by the middle of the afternoon. A portable back-up power bank lets us top up our phones and tablets while on the go. It’s been a great solution to the dead phone dilemma.
Sand Removal Mitts
The one thing I hate about the beach is all that sand. It clings to your legs, arms and back and you track it into your car, beach house or home. I hate that. These cool little mitts knock the sand right off. The soft towel material picks up the sand off the skin, even when it is stuck on with sunscreen. These were a game changer for keeping the sand out of our car.
Tile Mate Item Finder
When I’m down the Shore, I always worry about my stuff walking off without met. At least, that was until I got Tile Mate. This Bluethooth tracker can be attached to your beach bag, cooler or chair allowing you to find them if someone takes them. Or, if you just forget where they are on the crowded beach. Just use your smartphone, and you’ll track them down.
3-Speed Folding Fan
Ok, this isn’t strictly necessary, but it’s been a real treat on especially hot days at the pool or lake. This folding fan makes everything better (and cooler) by adding a little portable breeze. I’m not going to lie, it’s pretty indulgent, but it’s actually the number one thing you never knew you needed.
