Summer is in full swing and we are making the most of the sunny days by heading down to the beach and soaking up the rays and hitting the waves.
So you’re ready to hit the beach, but are you sorted with all of the essentials?
You’ve got your beach bag, towel and cabana (they’re the hottest beach accessory of this summer), but you may be missing your new favourite beach must-have – the beach chair.

If this has spiked your interest then read on because below we have rounded up our favourites available to shop in Australia. So sit back, grab your new favourite beach read, let the kids enjoy their sandcastles and boogie boards and rest up in style with your new beach chair.
