A lightweight, rugged and easy-to-carry beach bag is well suited to serve a primary function as a tote for containing and transporting items useful during an excursion to a beach or other waterside location—items such as towels, swimwear, swimgear, sunscreen, snacks, drinks, reading material and the like. Should an emergency arise necessitating a rescue of a person in peril of drowning, the bag's contents are jettisoned, enabling a quick collapse of the bag as a chain of hinged flotation elements that form an upstanding sidewall of the bag folds in an orderly manner so the bag forms a compact, substantially flat flotation device well suited to serve a secondary function of keeping afloat the person in peril who forcefully grasps the flotation device so a rescuer can tow the person toward shore by pulling on a lengthy tether securely connected to the flotation device.
