Does anyone have a recommendation for a beach towel clip? A device that actually does what it supposed to do, keep your towel attached to your beach chair. I've seen many different ones on the beach and tried a few different ones over the years, but they all seem to have flaws. I guess I'm just wondering if there's a "where have you been all my life" type product that actually does the job.

I believe I've seen these (based on the different designs) being used on the beach. I see BB&B sells them. I will try them on next trip. Thanks for the tip SXMS.

You can find them in any dollar store. They come in a pack of 6 usually. There's a dollar store in SXM. Try there or in the US, any dollar store has them.

God...I thought St. Martin (OK, and the rest of the world) had become "Americanized" when they got a McDonalds and now I find out there is a Dollar Store!!! Is there no end to the madness!!!

We use the mid size spring clamps from Harbor Freight. They fit the CO chairs perfectly. ( not the small size they look good and fit, but will break the first time any pressure is applied.

Cost us about $1 each verse the Boca clips which are about $5 or $6 each.
You need at least 3 to hold your towel in place when the wind blows.

We bought ours from Aqua Mania in Simpson Bay for $10 about 10 years ago and they still work perfectly. They also had good ones at the boutique at Club O.Two at the top of each chair holds your towel firmly in place and they come in a pack of 4.

Years and years ago, we got some clips from a couple who had a sailboat in SXM that they did charters on--Changes in Latitudes. They've been gone from SXM for quite a few years now, but we still have the clips!
