Leave the snacks and beers for the last minute and focus now on the most important thing: the beach bag. Let's see together how to choose the best one for you.

1. Material

The material from which the bag is made plays a very important role in your choice: A straw beach bag is ideal for classic and elegant looks, but keep in mind that it is not particularly water-resistant. A fabric beach bag is definitely more durable and lightweight, can most likely be washed in the washing machine, and is also very easy to pack folded in your suitcase. A plastic or waterproof beach bag, on the other hand, is very practical, as well as resistant to water and sand. 

2. Size and Capacity

The size of the bag you choose naturally depends on how many things you want to carry. A large bag is ideal for families or if you have a lot of things, while a smaller one is lighter and easier to carry.

3. Other features

My advice is to choose a bag with many pockets or compartments so you can keep your things organized. Internal zippered pockets are a must for me, as you can store your more valuable items there, such as your phone and wallet. Also, don't forget to pay attention to the straps. If comfort is your priority, choose a bag with adjustable, long straps or even reinforced handles.

There are so many different designs (boho, classic straw, modern, luxury bags), that you will definitely find one that matches your personal style. Here are some of my favorite beach bag picks of the season so you can enjoy your summer holidays with comfort and style:
