When the testers received the beach wagons, we asked them to assemble the beach wagons using the instructions (if provided). Then the testers loaded the beach wagons with their beach essentials and pushed and pulled the wagons on the pavement. We then asked the testers to take the loaded wagons to the beach and push and pull them on sand and gravel. Testers were also asked to make hard pivots and maneuvers with the wagons. Load capacity: If a trip to the beach with the kids involves a lot of gear, go for a trolley with a high load capacity that will be tough enough to carry the lot. When looking at the capacity for your best beach trolley, consider how much space you need (i.e. how much you will be taking to the beach) and how heavy this stuff will be.

We have found that aluminium-frame beach trolleys are far longer lasting and lightweight for carrying and manoeuvring. The capacity of Beach Trolleys Mac Sports 2-in-1 Folding Beach Wagon and Chair: This unique option is a wagon that also folds into a lounge chair. It is not a bad choice if you're the efficient type. We tested a total of 19 beach wagons. In addition to the 10 included above that we liked most, here are the others we tested:

The Timber Ridge IRONWOOD ALL TERRAIN WAGON is one of the best selling models in the market today. We looked at how it lives up to its popularity and what it’s good for. Think about your typical beach must-haves—like chairs, coolers, towels, and umbrellas—and make sure the wagon can haul it all with extra room for last-minute additions. Most beach wagons on this list can carry at least 100 pounds, though some can haul up to 300. Four-wheel models can typically carry more, while dolly-style wagons are better for lighter loads (and come with less storage space). One way to make your life easier and save time is to invest in a camping trolley. They’re also a useful storage option. We then chose the 8 best products in terms of quality, cost, and special features, based on our research.

First of all, it delivers an extremely comfortable handle which allows you to move the wheeler effortlessly and feel no pain in your arms. Another cool thing is that it comes with a canopy which is really important to protect your food & drinks from the sun. It’s unnecessary to mention how infuriating is to find your beverages warm. And the best part of all features is that the wagon is designed with a large outside basket which is perfectly suitable for your electrical stuff. Mac Sports Collapsible Outdoor Utility Wagon: Our testers really liked this wagon. Because of its included table, this wagon would be ideal if you include eating or a picnic in your beach trip and would like a surface connected to your beach wagon.The only issue our other testers found was how the oversized wheels added weight (it's one of the heaviest tested) and made storage a bit more complicated. If you're after a beach chair with useful features, you'll also find some that recline in various positions, others that fold up flat for easy transporting and we've found one that comes with a bottle opener in case you forget the beer-opening essential. We love a day at the beach: warm sun, soothing waves and kids and dogs who run out all their energy along the shoreline. However, lugging a day's worth of necessities, including beach towels, sports equipment, beach umbrellas and beach chairs can be cumbersome, especially if you have a toddler or pet to hang onto while you do the hauling. That's why a good beach wagon is crucial. Pulling one of these can save you from making multiple trips and keeps one of your arms free for holding a kid's hand or a leash. The warmest seasons of the year are here, which means trips to the seaside and we've rounded up the best beach chairs to make your day out by the sea a more comfortable one. This high-capacity but low-folded-volume wagon is ideal for families, groups, or someone with a lot of gear. The load capacity of 220 pounds is on the higher end of the spectrum, and our testers enjoyed the extra size. They gave this wagon high marks for performance thanks to some all-terrain wheels. "It was easy to pull through sand and gravel, and the handle made it easy to navigate," one tester noted.

Because the chair has a low-lying design, its smaller and lighter than most portable chairs. You can also fold it into a compact size to easily store in the drawstring travel bag included.Foldable camping chairs, picnic chairs, and camping stools can give your legs a much needed rest after a long day’s walking - or position you better to enjoy the sun. You can also upgrade your experience with a new groundsheet or tent carpet, adding a touch of luxury to your downtime. Camping tables Radio Flyer 3-in-1 Collapsible Wagon: Another option if you're looking to transport kids. This wagon has a canopy and three seating options, depending on the number of kids and the style in which you'd like to haul them to and from the beach. Products were selected according to several different factors. First, we wanted to include products representing various price points, functions, and uses. We also wanted a variety of brands and styles of beach wagons. Research into what products had already been featured in other prominent publications was also a factor in deciding which beach wagons to test. Start by deciding whether you need your wagon to carry kids or just objects, because the one with features for children are more expensive. If you'll only be hauling gear, you can spend less. Other factors can make the beach wagon easier to use for a more enjoyable experience. Here's what to look for:
