Build Your Ultimate Grab-and-Go Beach Bag
The warm sand awaits—now make sure you're fully prepped for it with Shipt.
Let's be real, beach days aren't always planned. Sometimes the group chat blows up at 10 a.m. and the plan is "meet on the sand by noon." You're not gonna want to miss out—and you won't if you keep a bag ready to go. You know, a pre-packed tote with the MVPs to make any beach day an effortlessly sunny one. That way there's no scrambling, and no forgetting all the musts for soaking up the day: Think an SPF that doubles as skin tint, a foldable hat that won't get crushed under your towel, and a water bottle that keeps liquids cold in the sun.
But if you're not quite there yet, fret not. With a Target Circle 360 membership, you can purchase all of the above—beach tote included—from Target and other stores like Sephora and CVS, and have it delivered straight to your door via Shipt. Not only that, but Shipt offers same-day delivery with no price markups (excluding select alcohol retailers and items; terms apply), so no notice will still be no problem.
Meet your new power-packed go-to: a non-greasy tint that smooths, evens, and helps balance your skin's moisture via hyaluronic acid, all the while defending it against the sun's radiation.
You know when you're trying to read your book, but your sunglasses can't totally deflect the direct glare of the sun? This stylish woven hat has a wide, 4-inch brim that'll keep your face in the shade—plus sunburns and premature wrinkles at bay. It's not a substitute for sunscreen though—don't forget.
Not all towels are created equal. This terry-cotton one is soft to lie on while you soak up the rays, thin enough to wrap around your waist after a quick dip, and light enough that it won't weigh you down as you schlep it to and from the beach.
What's not to love about an engrossing summer beach read that's literally called Beach Read? This one is so beloved, they've created this gorgeous collector’s hardcover edition.
At the inevitable hour of restlessness, a simple ball like this one can end up the hero of the day.
No one likes warm soda on a hot day (or even on a cold one, but we digress). Which is why your friends will be so amped you brought these blocks to keep everything chill while you're all stretched out in the sun.
A tumbler that keeps your drink cold on a hot day is a no-brainer. This one ups the ante with built-in flip top straw that you can snap shut so it stays free of sand between sips.
Don't worry, we didn't forget: You still need a proper bag to put all this stuff in. We can’t think of a better option than this straw tote that evokes the classic coastal carryall.
