Park & Sun Rally Bocce Set
Family Friendly Bean Bag Beach Game
The whole family can have fun in the sun with this cute Rally Bocce set from Park & Sun.
This set is far from authentic, but that makes it more family friendly. Park & Sun's colorful bean-filled balls will be much easier for children to lift than the classic metal variety. And they also won't hurt so much if passers-by get in the way of the game, or if anyone has a tantrum when they l…No Comments
Mikasa VSG Glow in the Dark Volleyball
Novelty Glowing Sports Ball
Sports brand Mikasa shows it’s not above a gimmick with this glow in the dark volleyball.
The manufacturer claims this ball allows you to enjoy a game of beach volleyball any time, during the day or night. It all sounds good in theory, but sadly this retro styled ball doesn't live up to that hype. Many customers complain the glowing effect lasts for only a few minutes. Some shoppers s…IOU Project & Along Make Madras Surfboard Cover
Eco-Friendly Cotton Board Bag
Sustainable fashion label The IOU Project has teamed up with Spanish eco-friendly surfboard company Along to create an ethically crafted madras board bag.

Cute Retro Bike Carrier with Velcro Straps
When you're a kid every bicycle has a basket. These woven wicker carriers were perfect for holding dolls and books and anything else you wanted to take to a friend's house. But when you grow up the baskets seem to disappear, almost as if bike makers think we've lost the need to transport anything on our travels. I miss those wicker baskets, almost as much as I miss my youthful stamina. Av…Zoe b Organic’s New Biodegradable Beach Toys
Eco-Friendly Bucket & Spade Sandcastle Set
I don't care how old I get; there are few things more pleasurable than building a sandcastle. Not these feats of modern sand art mind you, but the simple kind that comes from an upended bucket filled with slightly wet grains. So I'm thrilled to see Zoe b Organic has created a new range of biodegradable beach toys to her range of organic, BPA-free children's products.
The five-piece set…Mikasa MVA330 Volleyball
Blue & Yellow Spiral Club Sports Ball
This Spiral Club ball from Mikasa helps volleyballers improve their game, and look good while they're doing it.
The dramatic looks were the first thing that struck me about this volleyball. The yellow swirling design looks dazzling against the royal blue body, but it also serves a very practical purpose. The eight-panel style gives players a larger hands-on surface area, which m…Water Bomb Splash Balls
Fun Beach & Pool Toy Set
Embrace your inner child and have some fun on the sand with these water bomb splash balls.
Water bombs are a lot of fun, but once you throw them you're left with little scraps of rubber to clean up. That will give these reusable water bomb splash balls the edge for eco-minded folks.

GPS Navigational Cycling Computer
Garmin is a leader in providing in car GPS technology, but can the brand help you out when you're biking around the beach? With the Garmin Edge 605 Bicycle Monitor, the label attempts to do just that.
I say attempts, because this piece of technology has been on the receiving end of some pretty scathing reviews. The problem here is high expectations, which Garmin fosters with its glowi…Vincere Sand Socks
Unisex Beach Volleyball Feet Protectors
Anyone who's ever tripped over their flip flops on the sand knows that this footwear isn't ideal for playing volleyball. You could always strip off your shoes, but then your fragile feet would burn on the sand. Vincere has developed a practical alternative with its sand socks.
Despite the wild lightning bolts, these socks aren't the height of fashion. They certainly won't look sex…Hollywood Racks Gordo Two-Bike Car Rack

Affordable Beach Sports Equipment
It might not be as suitable for the pros as its name suggests, but this volleyball net from Mikasa should satisfy beach enthusiasts keen for a game.
The old adage that you get what you pay for rings true here. The polyester netting seems strong, but it's also quite stiff. It's not the sturdiest of nets, and it's an inch skinnier than regulation. That's disappointing for a net that claim…Beach Bike Travel DVD

Fun Wooden Paddle and Ball Summer Game
Pro Kadima is known as the original beach paddle and ball game, but is the original toy always the best?
This beach game is like a cross between tennis and ping pong; the small paddles resemble ping pong rackets but just like tennis there is no table required. There's no net or court needed either, making Pro Kadima more of a relaxed, spontaneous game. You'll likely debate whether a par…Spalding King of the Beach Volleyball Ball
Outdoor Summer Leather Sport Equipment
Spalding says you'll rule the sand this summer when you play with its King of the Beach volleyball ball.
This outdoor volleyball ball is crafted from soft touch composite leather, so it feels gentler on the hands than many professional balls. If you're a serious athlete that could be a disadvantage, but if you're playing with your family or friends it'll be a real plus.
Thankfully th…Waboba Extreme Bounce Beach Ball
Fun Water Toy for Ocean or Pool
It's got a funny name, but the Waboba Extreme might be the next big toy to hit the beach.
It looks something like a tennis ball, but when you take the Waboba on the water you learn what it can really do. While other balls sink like stones when they hit the drink, the Waboba actually bounces back!
At least it does in theory. The technique required is something like skipping stones, which can…HQ Kites Calypso II Rainbow

When was the last time you flew a kite on the beach? For most of us, this simple pastime probably takes us back to childhood. HQ Kites wants us to rediscover that long-forgotten joy with its Calypso II Rainbow kite.

There are official rules, includ…Pacific Shorewood Women’s Beach Cruiser
Blue Vintage-Style Girl’s Bike for Beach Riding
The image of biking along sandy dunes in the sunset is so appealing, that's why this nostalgia-inducing bike caught my attention.
It's built especially for a woman's frame at 26 inches and has those neat cruiser-style handlebars that are reminiscent of the bike's kids rode around in the 50s.
It's particularly comfortable because of the width of the seat and the fact that it's cus…iH85 iHome2Go Cycler Portable Speaker
Mini iPod Boom-box for Bike with Wireless Remote
Apparently the days of carrying your boom-box to the beach are over. iHome, the master of iPod transport, has come up with the iH85, or iHome2Go Cycler Bike-to-Beach Speaker. It's shaped like a water bottle so it can fit on to the carrier that most bike frames come with.
