Summer weather is here, which means that beach season is here! Whether you’re just heading to the beach for the day or taking a week-long vacation, having the right gear is a must. Here, we’ve rounded up the best beach chairs currently available so you can make sure you’re comfortable when you’re not splashing around in the ocean.
Best All Around Beach Chair
There are plenty of great beach chairs out there, but the Tommy Bahama 2016 Backpack Cooler Chair is the only model that checks every box. It’s nice and comfortable, and it reclines partially or all the way so you can lie down. It also folds up into a backpack so you can free up your hands to carry other things as you walk to and from the beach. There’s a built-in cup holder, a built-in head cushion, and even a built-in cooler behind the seat to keep your drinks cold.
Best Zero Gravity Beach Chair
We’ve tested all the top models out there and there’s no question that the Sunjoy Zero Gravity Chair is the best zero gravity beach chair on the market. It has a light but sturdy powder-coated steel frame and weather-resistant Textilene fabric that’s comfortable and breathable. The padded headrest and contoured arm rests are nice and comfortable, and it’s easy to adjust to the ideal angle.
Best Recliner Beach Chair
The Goplus Folding Zero Gravity Lounge Chair is a terrific beach chair for so many reasons. It’s comfortable, easy to reposition, durable, and lightweight. It’s also a bit longer than comparable beach chairs so it gives your legs extra support when you recline. On top of all that, there’s a built-in canopy to shade you from the sun.
