Bum Beach Rentals was created out of a love for the ocean and the belief that beach days should feel easy.
After spending so much time on the coast, it became clear how much better those days are when you’re not worrying about gear, hauling it as you travel, or last-minute store runs.

Based in Charleston and serving Folly Beach and the surrounding coast, we’re part of a community that lives for salt marsh air, sunshine, and time on the water. This is home—and we care deeply about protecting it.

We deliver premium beach gear directly to your vacation rental or residence, so everything is ready for you when you arrive. No last-minute shopping. No scrambling to find what you need. No settling for old, worn-out beach gear. Just grab your gear and head to the beach.

We focus on high-quality pieces that elevate your experience without overcomplicating it. As a proud Shibumi partner, we offer top-tier shade designed for quick, easy setup and all-day comfort—along with other thoughtfully selected essentials that make your beach day better.

We’re also here to reduce waste. Too often, beach trips lead to buying cheap chairs, foam coolers, and plastic gear that get left behind or thrown away. By offering durable, reusable equipment, we help cut down on that cycle while giving you a more elevated experience.

Caring for the ocean is at the core of everything we do. The beaches, wildlife, and coastal ecosystems that make the Lowcountry so special are also fragile. That’s why 5% of our profits are donated to support endangered species conservation right here in South Carolina and the Lowcountry.

When you rent with us, you’re not just upgrading your beach day—you’re helping protect the coast for years to come.

Show up. Kick back. Be a bum.
