25 June, 2025

• Innovative sand-free blankets land in Aldi’s middle aisle, alongside more beach essentials including the popular changing robe  
• Available in stores from 6^th July 

Say goodbye to sandy sandwiches and uncomfortable beach days with Aldi’s NEW beach must-haves. Helping holidayers hack trips to the seaside, from innovative sand-free mats to a stylish haul it all tote bag, the new summertime essentials will be available in stores from 6^th July. Beachgoers shouldn’t hang around though because as with all Aldi Specialbuys, once they’re gone, they’re gone.

The innovative NEW Sand-Free Blanket costs just £6.99 and is set to be this summer’s must-have hack. Ensuring a relaxing, hassle-free beach experience, this essential item repels sand thanks to its micro hole technology that allows the grains to fall back through. Available in a choice of ocean blue or sunset orange, its lightweight and compact design makes it easy to pack in a beach bag, whilst its durable material and included pegs help withstand the unpredictable British weather. 

For those that prefer to lounge on the beach on their own chair, the NEW Backpack Chair or Lounger (£24.99) offers shoppers the chance to do just that, without having to carry around anything bulky. Available as a chair featuring a side drinks holder and removeable zip pocket with carry handles or a comfortable lounger, this handy must-have simply folds up into a compact and easy-to-carry backpack, complete with straps.

Whatever the weather, Aldi’s range has the right shelter option. The NEW 2-in-1 Beach Shade (£19.99) means shoppers can choose to position it as parasol to offer shade from the rays or as a beach shelter, ideal for breezier days. Coming equipped with eight pegs and two ropes for securing, it can comfortably fit two adults, while the sides are easily removed.  

For little ones, pick up the Kid’s Beach Tent (£9.99), available in a choice of blue or pink and featuring a pop-up design so it can be pitched anywhere with ease. With UPF 50 protection, parents can be confident little ones can stay safe from the sun, while handy internal pockets will keep valuables in one place.  

The returning Changing Robe, available in both Adult (£39.99, sizes S-XL) and Children’s (£29.99, sizes 5-9 and 10-14 years) options, offers beach dwellers a way to swiftly change in and out of swimwear where privacy may be lacking, as well as extra warmth on colder days. Fully lined with a cosy teddy fleece and featuring zipped side and inner chest pockets, it’s windproof and waterproof making it a British summertime staple. 

Pack all the necessities in the NEW Haul It All Tote Bag (£12.99). This tote-ally spacious family bag helps keep the essentials safe, making it the ultimate beach companion. Made using sturdy, durable material, it features a treaded non-slip bottom as well as soft straps — meaning no matter how much is packed in it, there won’t be any sore shoulders. Available in a choice of green, pink or blue. For snacking must-haves, the 30L Beach Cooler (£8.99) is perfect — packing down flat once all the goodies have been eaten.  

Make memories that last with the NEW Reusable Waterproof Film Camera (£9.99). Waterproof up to three metres and coming equipped with a roll of 35mm colour film, it’s ideal for capturing underwater adventures and recreating a retro, nostalgic look to holiday snaps for a picture-perfect summer.
