Finding the Perfect Travel Beach Bag

We leave for spring break in three weeks and it's the first time we are taking the kids so I'm trying to be creative to minimize the number of bags we have and finding versatile solutions.  One of the challenges is what bag am I going to bring to keep all of our stuff for the pool/beach.  Tried out a bunch of bags to share with you. 


I'm leading with my favorite bag of all the ones I tried but please make sure check them all out because there are really good options. To me this bag doesn't have any negatives.  I love the bright colors, durable straw material, zipper closure and will lay flat for packing purposes.  Big fan and HIGHLY recommend.


This bag was probably my least favorite of all of them.  It's a nice neutral and I jazzed it up with this fun tassel. The bag would definitely lay flat for packing purposes but it's not big enough for my needs.  Also overall I don't think this bag is really great quality.  


Love how bright this Martha Stewart bag is...perfect beach colors.  Lays flat so will be easy for packing.  Only two downsides...it doesn't have a zip closure and it won't fit everything I need with two kids and a husband.  It retails for $50 but Macy's is having lots of specials and I've been seeing it for $25 or less.


I love these under $20 from Walmart of all places.  Super cute stray bags with fun colors but the only problem is they don't really lay flat so packing them will be a pain.  I added a little extra color with the one on the left with an extra tassel from Amazon.


The other alternative is to use my carry on bag as my beach bag.  It's a super cute and beachy print and it's adjustable so I can make it smaller for the beach and keep big for on the plane.  It has as zipper and an additional pouch on the inside.  And I wouldn't need another bag but I'd really like to see if I can make the Amazon stripe one work.
