On the go with Beachmate + a giveaway!!
This post is sponsored by my friends at Beachmate and includes an awesome giveaway opportunity. Read on for the details!
When I’m out and about with the girls, I’ve been able to streamline all of our gear so that I feel like I have everything I need without being totally strapped down with bags, gear, and babies. P is riding in the Ergo, the diaper bag is on my arm, and Liv is holding my hand. We’re able to go pretty much anywhere we want to go, and all of our essentials are in the diaper bag. One of the things I couldn’t quite figure out: lugging all of our beach gear to the beach with two small children in tow. This was especially challenging after my hand surgery, since my hand is still pretty weak and I couldn’t grasp heavy items.
Beachmate to the rescue.
My friends at Beachmate sent us one of their stackable storage systems to try out, and it has been a game changer.
We can put everything we need in the Beachmate, including food, sunscreen, hats, towels, and extra clothes. You can flip the multi-purpose buckets over to use as tables for snacks and lunch, and it also includes a cooler for snacks.
We enjoyed a pizza picnic on the Turkish towel, and had everything we needed in the Beachmate.
Bonus: the storage system can be used to build sand castles, and the Beachmate also came with two shovels. This was definitely Liv’s favorite part.
Some more info about Beachmate: (you can check out all of the wonderful products on their site!)
Even fully packed, it fits easily into the car.
One thing that stood out to me was the quality of the design. Everything feels very well-made and durable, so it will last us for summers of wear and tear.
Beachmate kindly offered a giveaway for one lucky reader, who will receive their own customizable system + a beautiful Turkish towel. It will make those summer beach days less bogged down with gear, so you can pack everything up and enjoy!

With two young kids in Florida, I feel like this is a must have!
My first time seeing the waters in Tulum, Mexico is the best beach memory. Then my best friend who is Mexican – couldn’t figure out the peso conversion and ended up buying a bag of pineapple for 20 usd. we still laugh about it…
For me and my red-headed kids – sunscreen!!
My favorite beach gear is my bluetooth speaker!
i need to have my beach chair, sunscreen and towel.
My fav thing at the beach is…. all of it! Company, water, good game of volleyball. Love it all!
My favorite beach memories are with my dad. Especially the last couple of years with my daughters. We’ve done beach houses in Santa Cruz, Ca and Huntington Beach, Ca and they’ll definitely be annual trips. I can’t wait to build more memories!

My favorite memory is collecting seashells and shark teeth. I have an almost 2 year old so I’m sure this will come in handy on our upcoming vacation!
I have fond memories of vacationing in Myrtle Beach, SC with my family. We can’t head to the beach without snacks!

Can’t go to the beach without a plethora of pails and shovels for the toddler and preschooler!
Snacks and sunscreen-the two just haves for a beach day with my 14 month old!
Folding chairs are always great to have at the beach! Oh, and a big hat so I don’t get face sunburn 😀
I love the idea of the beachmate carrier! My necessity is simple, ear buds. I love walking on the beach, listening to music or a podcast. Can do for hours!

I was at the beach today and even though it’s just me and my dog, this would have been so helpful!
I hate sitting in the sand, so I always bring a beach chair.

I live in Florida and love the beach. Beach goodies are a must!
My fiance’s family has a beach house and I couldn’t tell you how it is one of my favorite places in the entire world. It’s not just the fact that it’s a bike ride away from the beach, but every time I’m there I feel like I’m escaping reality, with wonderful food constantly out in the kitchen and the drinks flowing all day long. The happiness that comes from that home is my favorite ‘beach’ memory.
