The ultimate backpack,the backpack beach chair
If you are planning to go to the beach, there is one item that you really should bring along, if only for your comfort: The backpack beach chair. Backpack beach chairs are becoming increasingly popular along people and for good reason. You always carry a backpack or a bag of some kind because you need to bring all kinds of stuff with you to survive your day at the beach. When you arrive at the beach and didn’t bring your chair or beachbed along you will probably hire one. With a backpack beach chair you have everything you need packed in one backpack.
Like normal backpacks, backpack beach chairs come in a lot of different sizes and models. And if you think can’t be as comfortable as normal beach chairs, think again. The modern backpack beach chair comes with a footrest, is adjustable to your comfort position(most of the time in more than 3 positions), has an adjustable headrest and of course a drink holder. The frame can be made out of aluminum, wood or a plastic fabric. Most of these materials can hold up to 250 pounds(be sure to check that).
Apart from it being a beach chair it is also a backpack. The chair folds up to a backpack frame. Most models have different sorts of compartments where you can store stuff like blankets, food/drink items and of course suncream.
If you want one prices vary between $30-$90.
One of the stores you can get a backpack beach chair is Amazon.com:
