As the summer heats up and vacation season arrives, the beach is a classic summer getaway. The warm sun, cool breeze and inviting blue water of an otherwise perfect beach day have one unwelcome companion — sand everywhere. Beach sand can be a nuisance. It lingers in every crack and crevice, even weeks after visiting the beach. Luckily, whether you are lounging seaside or enjoying a picnic by the shore, these top-rated sand-free beach essentials promise to let you enjoy your experience without the hassles sand brings.
Leave the sand at the beach with this easy-to-use sand removal bag. Simply tap the pouch to release a talc-free powder, then glide over the skin to release any stuck-on sand. Sandscreen's portable design is equipped with a waterproof carrying bag, making it perfect for swift post-beach clean-up. For bonus points, sandscreen is vegan, cruelty-free and reef-friendly.
If you're traveling in a group, keep the whole crew sand-free with CGEAR's Original Sandfree Beach Mat.
