Towel Bands
Fed up with your beach towel floating away every time you move? These simple but crazily efficient little inventions keep your towel attached to your beach chair – or why not try some stylish beach towel clips?

Living somewhere the sand is already too hot to touch by May, I can’t tell you just how useful these aqua socks are.
Available in a great variety of patterns and colors, aqua socks will protect feet from sharp objects and heat and gives a non-slip surface. Lighter than an aqua shoe, a great fitting pair you won’t even notice you’re wearing.

Rayon material is perfect for the heat, and with a button-up design, a simple pair of shorts mom can also wear this one when you hitting the beachside shops or heading home to maintain modesty.
Waterproof Phone Case
We’re guessing mom is your designated family photo-taker-memory-maker? It’s essential her all-important device is kept high and dry. Even “waterproof” phones need an extra layer of protection in the ocean to capture the fun, so she’ll love this thoughtful and practical beach gift for mom.
Kobo Forma eReader
Because mama loves some reading time on the beach this summer, right? RIGHT! When that day comes, when mom can sit back and relax on the beach once more, a waterproof E Ink touchscreen is a must.
If you simply love your ebooks in something super lightweight that works equally well with the bright sun as in bed with blue light, you MUST invest in a great eReader; this one is my personal favorite I’d recommend it for all mamas who love a good read outside.
