If you have a jogger, maybe, but the normal kind... it would be an epic battle. Try a baby carrier

It would be tough work, if not impossible with a stroller with normal small wheels. Not to mention, even if it did work prepare for it to shorten the life of the stroller wheels (personal experience). A jogging stroller with 16-20 in (40.5-51 cm) wheels might do a better job of navigating.

No, I had a nice one that had all weather wheels and was supposed to go through anything and it couldn't make it through stuff like sand. Why don't you try a baby carrier? You said babies so I guess that means more than one but if you have more adults they all can wear a baby.

Well I live at the beach in Nc and I have a B.O.B single and my sister has a double B.O.B. stroller and both are AWESOME on the sand. Wish there was more room to put the stuff for the older boys but for my 3 month old and her 2 month old they are protected from the sun and are just awesome for everything. I also use my moby wrap or a ring sling.

Not easily, that’s for sure! Especially if the sand gets wet ,
the wheels will get muddy and jam.

If one is small enough use a snuggle sling and bring someone
to help with the other.

Some will. I would bring baby in a sling or some kind of baby carrier that you wear. Much easier.

It may, but it will take lots of pushing. It will not be easy unless the sand is compacted pretty well. What about one of those slings where you carry your baby on your chest?

Baby strollers are not very good on sand unless it is wet and compacted down. Dont count on this though. I would recommend that you use a baby carrier of some sort to transport the babies. If you absolutely must have a stroller use an umbrella stroller, they are lighter so they will push better in the sand and not sink so much.
