Reporters love practical tchotchkes that they can use over and over again. Nat Geo’s beach blanket fits the bill, serving as a beach towel or picnic blanket. At the same time, it highlighted the 24 different sharks featured throughout Nat Geo’s six-week “SHARKFEST” programming stunt. Along with the blanket, people received a full kit of SHARKFEST fun, including a hat, T-shirt, insulated tumblers, a beach tote, sunglasses and more.
