Can anyone suggest any waterproof things I could put my pump into when I go on my (beach) holiday or where to buy them from?

Thanks
 
Are you wanting to keep you pump attached when you go swimming? Or just keep splashes and sand off it when on beach and disconnect for swimming? If the latter, then a pouch designed for keeping mobile phone, camera etc dry when kayaking etc might be suitable - something with a velcro roll top that won't clamp the tubing. Suitable suppliers / manufacturers to consider include Overboard, Aquapac, Ortlieb, Packmate etc.

Your pump company will have water proof cases etc.
Also do a google search and you will find loads of ideas 🙂
