What do you do with your iPhone when you’re at the beach for the day?

Taking your iPhone into the ocean is not a good idea, so what do you do with it when you’re at the beach for a day and want to take a refreshing dip? Here are the best tips!

What do you do with your iPhone on the beach?

On the beach, you use your iPhone to take photos, read a book, and check the weather, but what do you do with it when you go into the sea? Ideally, you have someone with you who doesn’t necessarily need to swim, so that they can keep an eye on it. Otherwise, you’ll have to come up with something else. We’ve listed a few options for you.

Use the Seawag Waterproof Case

Taking your iPhone into the sea without any protection is, as mentioned, not a good idea. But you can buy a case that is completely waterproof. If you are going into the sea with it, we recommend the Seawag Waterproof Case. This case is not only waterproof, you can also attach it very easily to your arm. That way you will not be bothered by it at all while swimming.

If you remove the whole thing from your arm, you can also use your iPhone to shoot photos and videos in the sea. And that both above and below water! The Seawag Waterproof Case is therefore your ideal companion during a day at the beach. You buy it for 21.95 euros.

Use the Oliphant Sunscreen Bottle

If you prefer to leave your iPhone on the beach, it is a good idea to hide it as best as possible. There are many ways to do this, but the Oliphant Sunscreen Bottle is an excellent option. Everyone will see a bottle of sunscreen lying around and no one will suspect that you have hidden your iPhone in there.

The bottle measures 16.5 x 7 x 3 centimeters, which means that all iPhones will fit in it. Of course, you can also store other things in it, but we do not recommend putting your keys on top of your iPhone as in the photo. Before you know it, your screen will be scratched. That can also easily happen with beach sand, so be careful with that too. You can buy the Oliphant Sunscreen Bottle for 15.99 euros.

Use a LokSak waterproof cover

LokSak pouches are protective cases with a hermetic seal. This means that absolutely no water, air, dust or sand can penetrate the seal. Put your iPhone in there and you can take it into the water if you want. A better idea might be to bury it under your towel in the sand.

The transparent bags are flexible, available in different sizes and resealable. Ideal for your iPhone, but also for your iPad, for example. It is also handy that you can continue to use the touchscreen. The version you see below is large enough for an iPhone 15 Pro Max and can be purchased for 14.49 euros.

Use the Beachboxx 2.0

The Beachboxx is a handy portable storage system that you secure with a 3-digit combination lock. In addition, it is also possible to open the Beachboxx 2.0 with a unique key. This makes it an excellent option for securing your iPhone on the beach.

Thanks to the flexible cable lock, you can easily attach the Beachboxx 2.0 to existing objects such as parasols, beach beds, deck chairs, fences and even (small) trees. The steel cable lock is finished with a rubber coating and is not easy to cut. In addition, the Beachboxx 2.0 is sand, (splash) water and heat resistant. You can buy it for 54.95 euros.

Use an Apple Watch instead of your iPhone

Ok, an Apple Watch can’t completely replace an iPhone. But it can to a large extent. If you have a Cellular Apple Watch, so one that takes a SIM card, then you can go a long way. You can then make calls, answer messages, receive notifications, make PIN payments and listen to music while your iPhone is safely at home.

With the Apple Watch Series 2, you can rest assured swimming while you keep the smartwatch on. If you have an Apple Watch Ultra, you can even go diving with it. If you have a fairly recent Apple Watch, then it is no problem to dive into the sea with it!
