WASHINGTON — As the countdown to summer continues, avid beach goers can now get their hands on a variety of new gadgets just in time for summer vacation.

When facing the age-old dilemma of how to apply sunscreen on your back, you can either awkwardly ask your neighbor for assistance or use My Cabana Boy. This device helps apply sunscreen in tough-to-reach areas and operates using any spray lotion bottle.

There is also the BeachBUB, which acts as a supportive base for anchoring a beach umbrella to the ground. The BeachBUB is portable and withstands wind speeds of up to 42 mph.

Another gadget that you can make use of this summer is The Beach Glass. This outdoor drinkware is durable, reusable and has a pointed stem that can be placed in the sand for support. The glass also floats.

All of these beach gadgets cost less than $20.
