Choosing a site can often be a stressful part of your vacation. Some customers embrace the hunt while others prefer our help. Below are a few common options. Regardless which fits you best, we ask you limit to the canyon/bay confirmed in our pre-anchor communication (1-3 days prior). Note, we do not reserve spots in advance. Any site that is selected will need to be occupied by you, your guests or your boat at all times.

Customer Selection: you pre-scout to find your perfect spot. You may send us GPS in advance or show us at the time of our rendevous.

Co-Scout: when we rendevous we will show you a few options you might like based on your preferences you gave during your booking or confirmation.

Day of Communication

The day prior to your anchoring, we will establish 3-way communication via text between yourself, our on-dock team and your anchoring crew. Use this method to text us when you depart the marina and any in-route issues you may have or last minute changes. Once you arrive at the canyon/bay pre-arranged, you will monitor Channel 16 on your marine radio and hail Beach Bags. If our crew does not respond right away, they are simply working with another customer on a different channel and will hail you back as soon as they are close by. On un-anchor day, we ask that you also shoot us a text message letting us know that you have departed your site so that we may swiftly retrieve your anchors.
