Best Christmas Gifts For Beach Lovers
1. Roxy Hat
I wear this hat to the beach ALL the time! I am SO in love with it because finding the perfect hat has always been a struggle for me. So, when I came across this hat, I instantly knew that I had to have it.
I am all about simplicity, and this hat has the most adorable minimalistic wave design!
All beach loving girls will be obsessed with this hat! Us girls can pair this with a cute summer outfit for a day out or simply with a bathing suit at the beach or pool!
2. Waterproof Speaker
What is a beach day without a speaker for music. A beach day is simply not complete if you aren’t jamming out to your favorite songs, while hanging out with family and friends under the sun. This speaker makes a perfect Christmas gift!
This waterproof speaker is specifically made to be outdoors and is perfect for the beach, pool, camping, shower, sports, etc.
You can choose to connect via Bluetooth or USB. Plus, it is the perfect size to fit into your beach bag. Choose from 8 different colors.
3. Inflatable Lounger
This inflatable lounger is such a game changer for any beach day. Why lay on a beach towel, when you can feel like you are floating on a cloud.
I got this as a gift and it has made every beach day 10X better, so anyone who receives this as a beach gift will appreciate you so much!
4. Beach Coverup
Every beach loving girl can appreciate a cute swimsuit coverup. Plus, it makes a super easy Christmas gift that beach lovers will be guaranteed to use on their beach vacations.
This baby pink coverup is so adorable and light weight, which is important for staying cool.
5. Aloe Vera Gel
Every true beach lover knows the importance of aloe vera gel and they can never have too much of it! Whether they are soothing a sun burn or just replenishing their skin with moisture after a long day in the sun, aloe vera is a life saver!
6. Sun Bum Leave-In Conditioner
Saltwater dries out your hair, so by spraying in leave-in conditioner before heading to the beach your hair will absorb the conditioner as opposed to the saltwater. This helps keep every beach lover's hair hydrated and healthy, especially when you are frequently swimming in the ocean.
Not to mention, it smells like a beach vacation in a bottle!
7. Wave Ring
Any “beach girl” would freak out over these rings! I mean, how adorable are they?! This is a perfect stocking stuffer gift for any girl of any age. What I love most amount this wave band is that it is reversible.
There are two color choices: silver or rose gold. Pura Vida is an AWESOME brand and I have purchased jewelry from them multiple times. Plus, it is an affordable gift!
Not only is the ring stunning, but you can feel good purchasing from Pura Vida because all of their products are packaged in biodegradable bags and they provide sustainable jobs to artisans around the world.


8. Beach Towel
A beach towel is a perfect Christmas gift! All beach lovers are constantly on the search for the best beach towels and this WETCAT Turkish Beach Towel is exactly what they need. This beach towel is prewashed, which gives the towel a super soft texture.
Also, it is quick drying (prevents musty odors), easily shakes off sand, and super lightweight, which makes its great for traveling.
You can even use it as a picnic blanket, yoga mat, hair towel wrap, and more! It’s one of those gifts that every beach lover would love to receive!
9. Life’s A Wave Beach Box Subscription
If you know a friend or family member that loves everything about the beach or simply just the beach vibes, then the Life’s A Wave Beach Box has all things beachy that they would love!
Give the first month subscription box as a gift, where they will receive 5 to 8 beach themed items! This includes candles, soaps, home decor, self care items, candy, and more! Also, they ship internationally.
Plus, this subscription box supports an ocean oriented organization each month!
10. Beachy Bracelet Set
This bracelet set screams “summer & beach”! My friends and I are currently obsessed over the collection of bracelets that Pura Vida has. As a beach lover myself, I own about 6 bracelets/anklets similar to ones like these (and I hardly take them off).
This specific set is known as the Maui Pack and is extremely adorable! Once again, this is a perfect stocking stuffer that all beachy girls would LOVE. The ocean blues, wave, and seashells are such a perfect combination and can be paired with any summer outfit!
11. S’well Water Bottle
I strongly feel that every person should own a S’well water bottle. They are by far the best water bottles on the market (in my opinion). I own this exact one and use it everyday.
S’well water bottles are the most perfect water bottles to bring to the beach because they keep your water cold all day long even in the blazing hot sun. My mom got me hooked on them when she gifted me one for my birthday and ever since my entire family has been using them.
The S’well water bottle is shaped just like the plastic bottles you buy in large packs, which is designed perfectly to fit in your beach bag, beach chair cup holders, and car console. Not only are you helping reduce waste by using a reusable water bottle, but you are drinking out of a bottle that is BPA Free and safe. They are definitely an awesome Christmas gift!
12. Tinted Face Sunscreen
Not to be dramatic, but this is the best face sunscreen to exist. I seriously wear this EVERY SINGLE DAY. What makes this sunscreen so great is that it is tinted.
I hate when you put on sunscreen lotion and it leaves you looking so pale because of its white sheer coat left on top.
This tinted sunscreen leaves your face looking so smooth and even toned. I wear this when I do not feel like putting on makeup.
Every beach lover that is out in the sun for long periods of time would love to receive this as a Christmas present!


13. Beach Bag
Having a high quality beach bag can make all of the difference during your beach day. It is the one item you rely on to carry your phone, wallet, towel, sunscreen, water bottle, and more.
This large water resistant beach bag is perfect for carrying and protecting your belongings, while allowing you to zip it closed.
Not only is the pineapple pattern to die for (you can choose from their wide selection of colors and designs), this bag is waterproof, washable, and durable.
This is definitely any beach lover's dream Christmas gift!

I was recently gifted this exact car air freshener and I love love love it! This is another perfect stocking stuffer for both boys and girls! Not only does it make your car smell SO GOOD, but once all the scent is gone, it still makes a super cute accessory piece for your car.
Plus, this is an extremely affordable gift! I love the vintage design on the surfboard cut out, but if you are wanting to browse the other designs available you can do so here.

The outside of these candles are made out of paint cans! I have the pint size candle in my own bedroom and use it both as a decor piece and room air freshener when it is burning. This is an awesome Christmas gift for beach lovers since it has an adorable beachy design and tropical scent!
If you are looking for a stocking stuffer size of this candle, it comes in three different sizes: 1/4 pint, 1/2 pint, and 1 pint. The 1/4 pint would be a great stocking stuffer for any beach lover. Also, if you are wanting a more masculine design, there are many more options to choose from. Feel free to browse here.
Here is another popular design:
The Surf’s Up Candles are all natural soy wax that are made without any dyes, paraffins, led, or petroleum content. Also, the wick is made from a paper and cotton wick that allows for clean burning.
16. Spike Ball
Spike ball is the most perfect game to play on the beach. It’s the type of game that you start and can’t stop.
Of course, everyone brings the usual footballs, volleyballs, soccer balls, etc., but Spike ball is an all time favorite that gets everyone wanting to be involved.
It’s a great way to keep the teens or even adults occupied. This is a great family Christmas gift for those that live near the beach or visit the beach often!
17. Beachy Picture Frames
You can never go wrong when gifting picture frames. These beach themed picture frames are perfect for couples, families, best friends, and anyone who has a love for the beach. I gifted my mom a beach chair picture frame of her and I, and she adores it so much!
These are great Christmas gifts that you know your friends and family will actually use. You can choose to already put a photo inside the frame or simply gift them the frame itself.
The rustic beachy feel these picture frames give off would be great for a beach home!
18. Bar Soap Dish

This would be another great stocking stuffer that any beach lover would love to receive as a Christmas gift! This cute soap dish brings in that ocean/nautical feel into any bathroom, it would great for a guest bathroom!
