Awesome list! I had no idea there were hooks for umbrellas! Great find!
Hooks for umbrellas are a great invention aren’t they?
Love this list. I live near the beach and you have the perfect list. I have never seen the hooks for the umbrella and will be checking that out for myself.
What a great gadget to be able to hang towels and other stuff up and away from the sand.
That’s quite the list! I’m at the beach all the time, and I think you’ve pretty much covered it all. Love the beach umbrella hooks, great idea!
Whoever came up with the beach umbrella hooks is clever. I am always needing places to hang things when I am down at the beach.
This is an awesome list, I would have never thought to keep duct tape in my beach kit. Makes sense though, thanks for sharing this post with us on the #hobnobsocial. 🙂
Yes, that duct tape will stick just about anywhere and in any conditions. Great for that sandy environment.
Awesome, awesome list! I’m pinning this for future reference! Thank you for sharing at the #summerfamilyfun link-up!
