“The Best Tech For the Beach – Review Geek”
A tech-free visit to the beach can certainly be relaxing, but bringing specific gadgets can make your trip relaxing too. Reading a book on your Kindle, listening to your favorite song, cool air blowing on your neck—sounds like a pretty luxurious experience to me.
Of course, not everyone will be drawn to every single item on this list. Some stuff, like the drone or the GoPro, is more suited to those who like to be active and record their experiences. For others, earbuds with noise-cancellation and a digital book—paired with the scent of salt water and the cool ocean breeze—sound heavenly. No matter your preferences, there’s something here that’ll be up your alley.
Music For Everyone: JBL Flip 5
Whether you’re attending a beach party or just hanging out with a few friends, a waterproof speaker is the perfect addition. The JBL Flip 5 speaker only weighs about a pound and has an IPX7 waterproof rating, so you don’t have to worry about anyone accidentally dripping water on it.
Powered by a 4800mAh battery, the Flip 5 can last for up to 12 hours in between charges. It’s also equipped with JBL’s PartyBoost feature, so if you have another PartyBoost-compatible speaker, you can pair them together for a stereo sound experience. The speaker currently supports Bluetooth 4.2, which isn’t the latest version, but the lower range and speed shouldn’t matter too much since you’ll likely be close to the speaker.

A beach day is already super fun, but a great Bluetooth speaker can make the experience loads better.
For Awesome Action Shots: GoPro HERO8 Black
If you want to record videos and take photos in the ocean, whether you’re swimming or surfing, the GoPro HERO8 camera is the way to go. It’s waterproof up to 33 feet deep and incredibly durable, so it’s able to handle pretty much anything you throw at it.
You can snap 12MP photos that look great, even in areas with low light. But GoPro’s HERO8 truly shines with its video capabilities. Record in super crisp 4K at 60 frames per second, or in smooth slow motion at 240 frames per second with 1080p resolution. You can even live stream via the GoPro app (Android/iOS) in 1080p, saving footage to your SD card as you broadcast.

There’s a reason surfers gravitate towards GoPro cameras. This camera captures fast action shots in cinematic fashion.
Stay Cool: JISULIFE Portable Neck Fan
When you’re at the beach, there’s bound to be some sort of breeze, but sometimes the heat is still too much. Luckily, a portable neck fan can give you much needed relief and be worn comfortably while you’re tanning or reading a book on the sand.
This particular fan has a 4000mAh battery that can last between four and 16 hours, depending on which speed you use most frequently. Plus, it’s designed with 78 air outlets instead of traditional fan blades on the outside, which means it’s perfectly safe to wear for all ages and won’t pose any danger to long hair.

Imagine fanning your face with a thick piece of cardstock. Now, imagine a hands-free experience that blows air on your face and neck. Pretty cool, right?
For Beaches With No Shower: Tadomoe Portable Shower
If you know your favorite beach has a shower, you might not need this portable shower from Tadomoe. But if you’re not sure or you just want to have warm water to rinse off with right by your beach towel on the sand, it’s worth it.
This portable shower can hold up to five gallons of water, and that water can be warmed by the sun so you don’t have to experience a shockingly cold shower. There’s a temperature gauge on the bag that shows how hot the water is at any given time, which helps you recognize if the water gets too hot to use.
There’s a built-in air pump that automatically inflates and stops based on real-time air pressure, which helps your stream of water stay consistent until you run out of water. You can choose between a constant water spray and one that you have to manually switch on and off to use. Plus, if you’re at the beach when it gets dark outside, there’s an emergency flashlight attached.

Beaches don’t always have showers, and even if they do, they can be a bit gross or too public. So why not bring along your own portable shower instead?
Take Your Favorite Book: Kindle Paperwhite
There’s nothing quite like reading a book at the beach. I mean, there’s a reason that libraries and bookstores have a whole category titled “Beach Reads.” But with a traditional book, you have to fight the wind and worry about water droplets staining the pages. A Kindle Paperwhite solves those problems!
Amazon’s Kindle Paperwhite has a 6.8-inch 300 ppi display that looks like paper pages of an actual book, even with the sun beaming down. A single charge lasts up to 10 weeks, depending on which adjustable warm light setting you choose, and you can bring thousands of books around with you without the bulky weight. Plus, it has an IPX8 rating, which means it can survive accidental immersion in up to 0.25 meters of seawater for up to three minutes (or up to two meters of freshwater for up to one hour).

If you love physical books but don’t want to haul them to the beach or risk getting them wet, a Kindle Paperwhite is your next best bet.
For Comfy, Private Listening: Jabra Elite 7 Active
Whether you’re going to the beach alone or meeting up with friends, Jabra’s Elite 7 Active earbuds are the perfect companion. The built-in Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) technology helps your beach experience stay serene, as it should be. Plus, these earbuds have an IP57 waterproof and sweatproof-durable rating, so they’re perfectly safe if they accidentally get wet.
The Elite 7 Active earbuds have a battery life of up to eight hours, plus 30 if you bring along the charging case with you—fully charged, of course. If you use ANC, expect the battery life to drain faster. The Jabra Sound+ app (Android/iOS) allows you to customize your level of HearThrough, which controls how much background noise gets through while ANC is turned on.
Make Aerial Video Memories: DJI Mini 2
It seems like everyone has a drone these days, but if you don’t have one yet, use your next beach trip as an excuse to snag one. The DJI Mini 2 is a fantastic, compact option that only weighs about half a pound. Despite being so light, it’s able to withstand Level 5 wind resistance and take off at a max altitude of 4,000 meters.
Its recording capabilities are just as impressive. DJI’s Mini 2 can record 4K video at 30 frames per second, transmit live video at 720p from 10km away, and rotate to capture everything with a three-axis motorized gimbal. If pictures are what you’re after, the 12MP camera can take some stunners.
On a single charge, you’ll get a max flight time of 31 minutes. That might not sound like much, but it’s plenty to capture some pretty awesome shots to look back on for years to come. There are more features you can take advantage of via the mobile app (Android/iOS), but the Android app can’t currently be downloaded from the Google Play Store. Instead, you can download an APK file directly from DJI’s website.

There’s no better reason to buy a drone than to capture your awesome beach day memories.
Keep Everything Fully Charged: BigBlue 3 Solar Charger
Bringing a solar charger to the beach seems like a no brainer, especially if you’re bringing along a lot of extra tech. The sun blinds you the entire time you’re at the beach, so why not put that to good use and charge your smartphone, Bluetooth speaker, and more with a solar charger?
This particular solar charger from BigBlue has a panel efficiency of up to 24%, which means it can convert up to 24% of solar power into free energy as long as there’s enough sunlight. It’s portable, durable, lightweight, and even has an IPX4 waterproof rating, not including the USB junction box.
There are three USB-A ports with a total maximum current of 5V/4.8A, and each USB-A port by itself has a max output of 5V/2.4A. This solar charger is equipped with smart charging technology that detects when your device is fully charged to prevent overheating, as well as providing the best charging speed to different devices when more than one is connected.
