Start a beach business this summer and earn money with your feet in the sand

The expert offers 7 seasonal business opportunities

Summer is synonymous with sun, beach and free time, but it can also be the ideal season to earn extra income and perhaps start a new business. The expert Raphael Mattos, serial entrepreneur and author of the best seller “Sell, Lucrar, Escalar”, points out that, according to a survey by Opinion Box, almost 60% of Brazilians prefer to take summer holidays and 65% of them spend them more during this period than at any other time of the year.

“The beginning of 2025 brings countless opportunities for those who want to invest in seasonal activities and take advantage of the intense movement in coastal regions, the period is strategic. People are willing to consume and this opens a valuable window for entrepreneurship with creativity and low cost,” he says.

Among the most promising options, Mattos highlights services and products that meet the needs of those who frequent beaches, resorts and outdoor events and shares 7 practical business ideas:

– Create an experience with something you already know. Do you know how to fish? How about a fishing guide service? Sport fishing is a practice that has many enthusiasts, but they often don’t know the right place, where there are more fish, what bait to use, the rod, how to remove the fish from the hook, etc. If you have the possibility to rent a boat to offer the full service, even better. The advice applies to yoga, surfing, volleyball, footvolley, slackline and so on.

– Transist. Braids are very popular and who doesn’t like to look beautiful on the beach, in the hype of fashion? On social media there is a lot of content teaching how to do it and what you can do with satin ribbons, beads or beads, adding value and a very colorful look, even better, adults and children will love it. You can make hairstyles, beach braids, chignon braids and the famous tererês, now called pp braids.

– Ribbon sign. It consists of applying a tanning product and positioning the bikini in the correct position. The process lasts approximately 1 hour, while fruit juice to stimulate melanin, coconut water and natural water add value to the service.

– Printed photos. A family photo printed on site is much nicer to keep as a keepsake. If it has an “instagrammable” setting, even better. With a small portable printer that connects to your cell phone via Bluetooth and can be purchased online starting from R$400.00, you can earn a lot of money with good taste and creativity and still quickly recover your investment.

– Drone rental. Have you ever seen people taking photos from up there and how beautiful the photos are? There is a drone with a camera for taking photographs which costs from 200.00, then you can rent the equipment by the hour or offer the photo shoot, the person just has to pose and the result is incredible.

– Babysitting service on the beach (babysitting). The idea is to create a structure that takes care of children right there on the beach, in front of their parents, while they rest. A tent to shelter from the sun, some toys to play in the sand and creativity are the necessary ingredients. Scavenger hunt, hopscotch and tug of war are options to entertain the crowd.

– Pet sitter on the beach. As for children, but for pets traveling with their owners, the idea is to offer care services and outings while the owner rests on the beach. Those who have stayed in the city can do the same by hosting their pets.

“The secret to success is to identify a local need and offer a practical and innovative solution. Demand in summer is high and the businesses that stand out are those that manage to combine quality, fair prices and differentiated service. Starting small can be the beginning of a great entrepreneurial journey,” he concludes.
