Beach Wheels Redefined: Your Ultimate Outdoor Sidekick

Transformative experience with beach wheels on Veer wagons

When you think of beach wheels, you’re probably picturing balloon wheels that help you effortlessly haul your beach gear to and from the coastline. But until now, most beach carriages designed for hauling gear lacked one thing—seats for kids.

That’s why Veer—known for inventing the original stroller wagon—has introduced the Beach Wheel Kit for Cruiser. With adapters that attach to infant car seats, a Nap System that converts Cruiser into a JPMA certified bassinet—why wouldn’t beach wheels that transform your stroller wagon into a fortified beach hauler be on the docket?

So let’s dive into what makes these specialized wheels essential to any family beach trip.

Hold Up. What Exactly Are Beach Wheels?

If you’ve found your way to this blog from Google, you’re probably here because you heard about beach wheels and were wondering what all the buzz is about. (Or, discovered them on our site and want to learn more.)

Beach wheels are large, often balloon-shaped wheels attached to carts, wagons or strollers that make moving across sand a breeze.

Anyone who’s ever had to drag a cheap X-frame collapsible cart across sand, filled to the brim with chairs and coolers, knows the struggle. But with beach wheels, you get smooth rolling action that can glide across sand effortlessly.

Once you pop, you can’t stop—and the proof is in the pudding. Beach wheels have started gaining traction over recent years because of…well…their ability to gain traction. (See what we did there?)

The moment you roll over sand in a stroller wagon equipped with beach wheels, you are blown away—it’s just THAT much easier. The secret comes from their size: beach wheels have the unique ability to flatten out and distribute weight evenly, so as to not get stuck or sink into the ground. They also heighten ground clearance, which assists in navigating the many furrows and grooves often littering the shoreline.

Beach Wheels Meet Stroller Wagon

While not a new discovery, beach wheels are a completely new feature to stroller wagons. They’ve quickly started turning heads, as parents notice Cruisers fitted with specialized wheels skimming across shorelines.

These balloon tires have for years been a fisherman’s favorite, used on a variety of carts which help tow equipment to and from sandy shores—now, however, it’s not just anglers having all the fun.

No longer reserved for only chairs and tackle boxes, beach wheels on a stroller wagon gives kids (up to four children in the All-Terrain Cruiser XL) an oceanside seat while you coast along the boardwalk.

Mini champions of the outdoor gear world, beach wheels can instantly offer a transformative experience for families—especially when you’re juggling a full beach day with young kids.

It makes sense that Veer would also be the first to offer beach wheels for wagon strollers, allowing Mom or Dad to carry the kids and all their gear to their favorite beach spot on one platform.

The Beach Wheel Kit for Cruiser is one of a kind—engineered using aircraft grade aluminum and corrosion resistant hardware.

For a brand that advocates for “raising the wild”, Beach Wheels are one of many Veer products that help take your family off the beaten path.

Why Are Veer Beach Wheels a Game Changer?

1. Effortless Pulling of Kids and Gear in Sand

Sure, there are other carts built for the beach—and some with inflatable wheels that perform well in sand.

But throw in a few tired toddlers in the mix and soon you need a team of grownups to help schlep everything (and everyone) to the shore and back.

A stroller wagon kitted with beach wheels, however, becomes your one-stop solution.

Whether you're pulling a Cruiser loaded with children, gear or coolers (or all of the above), Veer’s Beach Wheel Kit is ready to get your family from the parking lot to your favorite tanning spot with minimal effort.

Beach Wheels will glide atop sand and bounce over ruts in the shoreline.

Voilà! Your beach hauls have just become incredibly easier.

2. Carrying Your Cooler Just Got Cooler

Balloon wheels aren’t the only way to turn Cruiser into a beach machine. Veer offers an assortment of accessories that can be added to make beachgoing a cakewalk.

Cruiser already comes with mesh netting on the inside walls for storage, but you can more than double that by adding stretchy Cargo Nets to the outside. The Foldable Storage Basket can easily hold Body Boards, the Adventure Tote and more with a 15 lbs capacity. Add the Switchback Seat adapter to securely latch Day Cooler on top, leaving ample storage space beneath.

There are so many ways to customize Cruiser for your beach haul—from Parent Organizer to Catch All XL—that combined with Beach Wheels creates the ultimate family carrier on sand.

3. Easy to Clean and Maintain

Saltwater and sand can do damage to anything over time, but a simple hosedown helps keep your beach wheels ready for their next beach trip.

A soft brush or sponge may be used to remove stubborn sand from hard-to-reach nooks and crannies.

Allow your wheels time to completely air dry and you’re ready for more fun in the sun.

4. Easy to Install and Uninstall

With just the push of a button, Cruiser wheels pop off and are replaced by popping in these wear-resistant inflatable tires.

Remove Beach Wheels to store more easily in car trunks. (Pro tip: keep them secured in Veer’s Beach Wheel & Gear Storage Bag for easy carry and organization.) Then, swap them back out with stock Cruiser tires when it’s time to hit other terrain.

Regardless of where the path leads, you’re ready for action.

Reflections

Bring the wheels along and it’s game on—nothing will stop you and your family from exploring in style.

With more reasons to love them than we can list, these specialized wheels may soon become the secret to making all your sandy adventures easier, smoother and more fun! Whether it’s boardwalk-accessible from the house, or a car trip away, your beach experience just got turned up a few degrees.

So let’s kick the tires and light the fires! Dust (or hose) those wheels off, pack up your gear and get outside. The beach (and beyond) is waiting for you, and now, you’re ready for whatever the tide brings in!
