Tips

Get a good setup

A little planning saves money and hassle.

  • Bring cash

    Vendors don’t take cards.

  • Compare and agree a price

    Check a couple of vendors and settle on a full-day rate if you’re staying a while.

  • Ask what’s included

    Shade size, number of chairs, a cooler or not.

  • Go early

    Weekends and holidays get busy, so arrive early for the best spot.

Skip the daily rental

Renting every day adds up. Many homes in Flamingo come with chairs, umbrellas and a cooler, so you can just walk down to the beach.
