Beach CartBest beach wagon for kids: Radio Flyer All-Terrain Venture Wagon Why carry all that heavy beach gear yourself when you can roll it in the best beach wagon instead? Even those who don’t frequent the beach know it already requires more effort to walk on sand without lugging extra weight on you.
