The Bits and Pieces: Best Bags for the Beach or Pool

With Summer activities in full swing, getting wet is almost inevitable. Whether you have a pool in the backyard or neighborhood or you have a beach getaway planned, it’s necessary to have something to tote your towel, sunscreen, and maybe a book or iPod.

There are a few key things to look for when trying to find the perfect beach bag. Size, shape, color, and price are all vital to finding that perfect bag. Size is probably the most important of these. Making sure the bag is big enough to tote around everything you need is very important or you will be highly disappointed with your purchase. I personally need a larger bag because I have all of my things plus my sons things. If it’s just you, a smaller bag will do.

Shape and color are all a matter of personal preference. Do you want a tall, thin bag or a long, wide bag? Do you want the bag to match your suit, your towel, or neither? It’s all up to you.

Finally, price is second only to size. You have to make sure that the bag is within your budget, and there are plenty of options available ranging from the very inexpensive (I saw a nice on at Publix for $5.99!) to the expensive, designer bags. How much you spend is up to you.

Most of all, have fun! It’s summer, and while most of us still have to work every day, there’s no reason not to make the most of it every chance you get.
