We love being prepared for the beach, and our new extra large beach bag helps us keep everything and then some! It is seriously a HUGE bag with so much storage, but still surprisingly lightweight! The beach tent and sand blanket combo keep mess to a minimum and are easy to set up. We keep everything organized in pockets and pouches, and bring a variety of toys specifically for sand. While these items are beach-specific, we also make sure to have all of our diaper bag essentials and on-the-go must haves, like travel fan, sound machine, teethers, and pacis. We also bring our cooler backpack for drinks and packed lunches/cold snacks!! It makes it so easy to each have one bag and one kiddo to take to the beach from our room, rather than lugging our beach wagon or multiple smaller bags.
