Going to the beach for a day of fun with family and friends usually means that you have to lug a few things to your chosen spot. Nobody enjoys multiple trips to the vehicle on blistering beach sand, so you either have to move quickly or carry as much as you can in one go.
That isn't always practical, but you can carry the two most important things at the same time: your cooler box and music speakers. You could stack them on top of each other, but it's much better to simply get a beverage cooler that has built-in speakers.
