If you've ever tried to haul beach chairs, an umbrella, a cooler, towels, and a bag of snacks across a sandy path in the South Carolina heat, you already know why beach chair rentals on Isle of Palms exist. By the time you wrestle an umbrella into the sand and realize you forgot the sunscreen in the car, half your morning is gone.
A beach chair rental service like Beach Bums IOP takes all of that off your plate. We deliver commercial-grade chairs, large anchored umbrellas, and coolers directly to your chosen beach access point — set up and waiting before you even arrive. No carrying, no assembling, no fighting the wind. You show up, sit down, and enjoy the beach. It's the simplest upgrade you can make to any Isle of Palms vacation or day trip.
Renting beach chairs and umbrellas on Isle of Palms is straightforward. Here's the process from start to finish:
If you're renting for multiple days, the same setup appears at the same spot each morning for the duration of your stay. Multi-day rentals are available through our online checkout — just select your start and end dates and you're set.
Transparent pricing is a big deal to us. Here's exactly what Beach Bums IOP charges for beach equipment rentals — no hidden fees, no surprises at checkout:
| Item | Price |
|---|---|
| Beach Chair | $15 / day |
| Umbrella (includes a table) | $30 / day |
| 2 Chairs + 1 Umbrella (bundle) | $48 / day |
| Cooler | $50 / day |
The 2 Chairs + 1 Umbrella bundle at $48/day is our most popular option — it's automatically discounted at checkout compared to booking each item individually. Multi-day rentals are available through the same checkout flow; just pick your date range and the daily rate applies to each day.
Compared to buying cheap beach chairs at a big-box store (which often break after one trip), or renting from a resort at marked-up rates, a dedicated beach chair rental service on Isle of Palms gives you commercial-grade gear, daily setup and breakdown, and zero hassle.

When you book with Beach Bums, here's exactly what you get — no fine print:
Isle of Palms stretches roughly seven miles with more than 50 public beach access paths. Beach Bums delivers to nearly every one of them — from the quiet southwest end near Breach Inlet all the way up to the upper island avenues past 40th Avenue.
During checkout, you'll select the specific avenue access where you'd like your beach chair rental set up. Not sure which spot is best? Our Complete Guide to Every Beach Access Point on Isle of Palms breaks down parking, amenities, and crowd levels for every section of the island.
Important note: Beach Bums does not set up behind the Isle of Palms County Park (14th Avenue) or at the Grand Pavilion area within Wild Dunes, due to venue-specific regulations. If you're staying in either of those areas, just give us a call and we'll help you find the closest available access point.
