Reading Time: 3 minutes

Sometimes, you want to go beyond your backyard oasis, but you still have to work. Luckily, with the right tech, you can have the best of both worlds at the beach—work and play. 

Warm weather is fast approaching—but it’s trickier to work in the sunshine than you may think. From screen glare to pesky sand particles, working from the beach can present a host of issues.

But our suggestions for tech to help you work from the beach can resolve a few obstacles to help you get work done while enjoying the sand and surf.

Harness the Sun With BigBlue’s 63W Portable Solar Charger

If you’re going to work at the beach, you might as well take advantage of its abundant power source: the sun. That’s why a solar-powered charger is first on our list.

The BigBlue 63W Portable Solar Charger has high-performing solar panels. And according to its manufacturer, it can provide a conversion rate of between 21% and 23.5%, which is pretty good considering most solar panels convert sunlight into usable power at a rate of 11% to 15%.

Another plus is that the BigBlue portable solar charger has 5V USB, USB-C, and 19V DC charging ports. So, you can use it to charge all the devices you need for a productive workday at the beach, such as a: 

  • Laptop
  • Power bank 
  • Smartphone 
  • Tablet 

BigBlue even has a 10-1 connector kit you can use to charge some power stations. 

If you’re worried about lugging a big charger onto the beach, don’t be. BigBlue makes the 63W Portable Solar Charger using a polymer fabric. The entire setup weighs less than four pounds and folds into the size of a small briefcase. It even fits into a normal-sized backpack, making it easier to transport it to the perfect beach office.

Icybreeze V2 Pro Keeps You Cool in the Heat

Don’t take away enjoyment from a workday at the beach by overheating. The Icybreeze V2 Pro portable air conditioner is just what you need to stay cool and productive.

The Icybreeze AC unit uses cold water stored in the bottom of its tub as a cooling agent. It doesn’t use Freon, nor does it generate exhaust heat. As a result, you can safely use the Icybreeze outdoors and indoors.

According to Icybreeze, this portable air conditioner can pump out air that’s as much as 35 degrees F cooler than the air temperature. It also has a three-speed fan that generates up to 25 mph of wind, helping you to stay cool and focused on your work. Plus, there’s even a spot in the air conditioner to keep your drinks cold, too.

Always Have Power With the Einova Ultra Fast Power Bank

The Einova Ultra Fast Power Bank is a good solution for keeping power-hungry devices like your laptop charged up for a day of work at the beach. This power bank can charge up to three devices at the same time and has three charging ports:

  • USB-C
  • USB-A Quick Charge
  • USB-A

With the compact, straightforward Ultra Fast Power Bank, you can charge a laptop about one and a half times. Additionally, you’ll always know how much juice you have left with its easy-to-read power display. Plus, its small size makes it easy to tote around.

Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones Help You Maintain Focus

Whether you want to tune out the world or type up a document in silence while at the beach, Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700 have you covered.  

You can listen to music while working with no interference from the outside world, or you can let in just enough sound to keep an ear on the kids. You can also jump on a quick business call using the headphones’ Conversation Mode.

The Seismic Hard Cooler Box Keeps Your Things Cool in Style

If you want to avoid taking too many snack breaks while you’re trying to get work done at the beach, you’re going to need a cooler. But all coolers are not made equal, so if you want to splurge a little consider the Seismic Hard Cooler Box.

This cooler can store up to 50 canned beverages or 32 pounds of ice. Plus, the extra thick walls and sturdy construction mean it can keep food and beverages cool for a whopping 10 days.

But perhaps the most eye-catching feature is the built-in Bluetooth speakers with LED panel. Yes, this cooler isn’t just a cooler, it’s also a boom box. This means its perfect for playing your productivity playlist while you work at the beach.
