The best part of this particular pattern is the number of pockets it has......there are 6 on the outside, 4 which will hold either sunglasses, sunscreen bottle or bottled water, one that is zipped to hold a cell phone and the last will hold my nook!! On the inside there is also a really nice zipped pocket for cash. And as a bonus I used the Babyville PUL fabric from Joann's which makes the bottom of the bag waterproof!!!
