How do I lug DS, and all our stuff, onto the beach

So, I would like to take advantage of having much of the summer off, and get out to the beach with DC and others. However, I have no idea how to get him and all that stuff across the sand. He's too heavy to carry in the infant seat all that way. Even without the dome, bag, etc., he's just too heavy in that thing. He's not sitting up yet. I doubt our stroller performs well on sand. Any ideas?

a sling for DS... I think I saw some sort of beach cart....

yep, here it is!

It's a bit pricy, but if you go to the beach over 10 times a summer, it's worth it.......

I load up the stroller and pull it backwards across the sand. Works like a charm.

I guess this is always a possibility. What kind of strollers did you two have?

i do the same. Takes a bit of effort but it gets the job done plus there is a place for DS to nap if we're talking a full day at the beach.

I have that beach cart and it is a lifesaver!!!!! I actually got it from the comfort store for a little cheaper and also found coupon for it.

I have an Inglesina Zippy. Worked out great since she could also nap in it and have full shade from the sun.
