Benefits of technology

[0005] The present invention meets those needs by providing a beach bucket kit which includes a bucket containing beach items such as beach towels, and a beach mat on which the beach towels and other items may be placed. The kit further includes anchoring devices for securing the beach mat to the ground which helps avoid or minimize sand getting on the user. The bucket, when filled with water, can be used to wash sand off of a user's feet, which also minimizes the chance of sand getting on a user and / or the beach items. The bucket can be easily carried to the beach and the items unloaded for use, and then reloaded into the same bucket when leaving the beach.
[0012] When the bucket is carried to the beach, the items may be removed from the bucket for use and the bucket may then be filled with water and used as a means of rinsing one's feet to remove sand before stepping on the beach mat / beach towels, entering a car, etc. In addition, because the towels are placed on the beach mat which is anchored in the sand, this also aids in keeping sand off the user.

Problems solved by technology

However, it is difficult to set up towels on the beach in such a way that sand is prevented from getting on the towels and other beach items as well as on one's body.
