Best Beach Bags of 2019

In our line of work, a good beach bag is as important to us as a good briefcase is to many professionals. We’re always on the lookout for a good beach bag, and those of you who might be planning a tropical vacation may be embarking on the quest for the perfect beach bag too. The following is a list of our Best Beach Bags of 2019 compiled from research we’ve done for an upcoming beach trip based on these features:

1. Large enough to accommodate 2 good sized beach towels, cameras, books, snacks, sunscreen, etc.
2. Can get slightly wet (and sandy) without ruining anything inside.
3. Has a zippered pocket for small items.
4. Has a zipper close top.
5. Attractive style and color.
6. Can fold to fit easily in a suitcase.
7. Can hold a water bottle on the outside.

Pros: beautiful color, mesh on the top for ventilation, solid bottom, 2 zippered pockets, cooler on the bottom for water bottles or cans, reasonable price, large enough for two plush beach towels, lightweight and can be folded to carry in your suitcase.
Cons: It says that it has a “zipper top”, but there is no zipper on top. Instead it has a strip of velcro which, so far, seems to work pretty well.

Ok, although not as functional or roomy as the other beach bags featured, this one holds 2 bottles of wine or 1.5 liters of your favorite beverage (painkillers or rum punch?) and has a handy dispenser built in! It also has a zippered pocket inside and the top zips shut. Hmmm. We may have to do a little more “research” on this one!
