For many folks, it’s the season to head to the beach. Here are some travel gadgets that you may not want to leave home without.

Worried about leaving your valuables on the beach?

Yelpie is a water-resistant portable safe that stores your keys, credit cards, and other small items, and a siren will sound if anyone tampers with it.

If you’re worried about over-tanning, try the Personal UV Monitor by Oregon Scientific.

It costs less than $25, and monitors the level of UV radiation and the temperature, and it will alert you when it’s time to get in the shade based on your skin type.

And, here’s something crazy for you surfers out there: for about $600, you can attach a Shark Shield to your board.

It creates an electrical field to keep the sharks away—if they come within range, it causes their muscles to spasm.

And if used properly, they promise you won’t get electrocuted when you wipe out!
