subject: Beach Chairs - The Way To A Relaxing And Comfortable Vacation! [print this page]
For many of us, vacation time means hitting the beach. After all, what can be more relaxing than a plunge in the cool blue waters of the ocean. In fact, just conjuring up an image of the beach with people strolling about on the shore, or just soaking up the sun, is enough to refresh one's mind. And any picture of the beach is never complete without the colorful umbrellas and the beach chairs strewn about everywhere.
If you have ever been to the beach on a family vacation or with friends, you will know that some of the best moments are spent sitting around close to the waters and enjoying each others company. A lot of hotels by the sea side have a part of the beach earmarked for their visitors and this area is usually set up with tables and chairs and large umbrellas. But what if you want to go to a relatively quieter part of the beach so that you can get some quality time with your loved ones? Sitting on the wet sand can, after all, be quite an unpleasant experience!
To make the most of your beach holidays, it only makes sense that you would want to spend as much time close to the water as possible. You can just laze around in the sun, get sprayed by the surf, enjoy a few drinks, or let the breeze lull you to sleep. And the perfect accessory in this idyllic holiday plan is a beach chair. Although the idea may seem a little crazy, lugging around a couple of beach chairs can actually turn out to be a blessing in disguise. If you are thinking how cumbersome it would be carry beach chairs with you on a trip, let me tell you that now a huge variety of foldable beach chairs are available that portable and don't even take up much luggage space. Here a few varieties you can choose form.
Backpack chairs - These are basically aluminum or tubular steel frame chairs that weigh as less as 7lbs, come in removable, replaceable fabrics and can be rolled up with a strap. You can also opt for ones that have a large storage packet and built-in cup holders.
Padded recliners - These are ideal for tall people and have multi-adjustment properties so that you can put them either in an upright position or recline them completely. The headrest is also adjustable, and the ergonomically contoured arms are designed to provide further comfort.
Beach chaises - Chaise loungers have an elastic lasing system to allow for extreme comfort. They are usually made of a mold resistant fabric and padded with a high density foam that is resistant to tearing, stretching, ultra violet light, and abrasion. Some of these are also designed therapeutically for people of all sizes and contours.
Hammocks - This is perhaps the kind of chair most suited for the seaside. They now come with strong stainless steel parts and have a collapsible spreader bar. The fabric used most often is cotton, although you can also find ones that are woven in Elltex poly/cotton fabric to guarantee more strength and durability. Not only are hammocks very easy to carry around, you can also set them up just about anywhere and enjoy some blissfully lazy hours.
