G’DAY, WE’RE LUIS & BEC GIL
The (Sand-Free) Founders of Beach Soul
And we’re stoked you found us!
Why did we start a Portable Shower brand in Australia? Well, as busy parents who were constantly going to the beach, you could say it started out of necessity.
We needed an easy solution for keeping our kids, equipment and car clean after a day on the beach or while on the road. And after looking for options, we realised that while portable showers existed, we saw that most of them required either electricity or batteries in order to operate.

Now, this is necessarily a dealbreaker, but we wanted a portable shower that was a breeze to use, easy to store and pump-operated, meaning even the kids could use it (and they do!).
2021
So to the hardware store we went. And after collecting a few bits and bobs, our first Franken-shower was born.

This Franken-shower did the job, but we needed something more robust that was always ready to go with zero need for DIY repairs. Our first official Beach Soul Portable Showers were born.

Since then we’ve been bowled over by enquiries, compliments and “I wish we had those when my kids were younger” kinda comments. But the best part is that none of this started as a way to make money.

Our only desire was and continues to be this - to simplify our life and remove the hassle of hitting the beach so we can enjoy our family adventures even more!
