For beach camping a matt outside the door is a must. I also bring a vaccumm cleaner to keep the sand at a dull roar. I do not like sand in my TT. If you dont have some kind of mat outside you will drag it into teh TT and never get it out. I had an older camper before and we went to a beach resort. It took me months to get the sand out of it. When I traded it in I pulled a bag out of one of the storage areas and guess what sand. It is crazy how it gets everywhere.
Well enough of my 2 cents happy camping and enjoy!!!
