Hats
Sun protection starts from the top down, and a quality beach hat is non-negotiable for long days by the water. We prefer versatile bucket hats that offer 360-degree coverage around your face and neck while staying secure during active beach activities. Our raffia Isadora Bucket Hat is the easy, everyday pick — its lightweight 3" brim shades your face without ever feeling heavy, so it's just as comfortable building sandcastles as it is reading under an umbrella. For something with a little more edge, the Paco Bucket Hat brings that same breathable raffia construction but finishes it with a raw, boho fringe brim, perfect for festival-adjacent beach days or anywhere you want a laid-back statement.

For those seeking elevated style with superior coverage, a classic wide-brimmed straw hat delivers both fashion and function. Our Seville Hat is a structured raffia bucket with a self-corded tie at the crown, offering a slightly dressier silhouette that still shields your face, ears, and shoulders from harsh UV rays. If you're after something even more special, the Carmel Island Bucket Hat takes raffia to the next level with hand-applied pearl and shell details, an instant beach-to-brunch upgrade that proves sun protection doesn't have to sacrifice style. Choose lightweight, breathable materials that won't overheat you, and look for options with adjustable inner bands to ensure a secure fit even on breezy coastal days.

Sunglasses
Quality sunglasses are essential beach accessories that protect your eyes from damaging UV rays while reducing glare from water and sand. We recommend polarized lenses that cut through the intense reflection off the ocean surface, making it easier to spot waves, read your beach book, or simply relax without squinting.

Look for frames that offer 100% UV protection and consider styles with wraparound coverage for maximum shield from all angles. Sporty designs with secure fits work best for active beachgoers who plan to swim, play volleyball, or jog along the shore. For a more fashion-forward approach, oversized frames provide both sun protection and instant glamour. Don't forget a durable case and retention strap to keep your investment safe when you're in the water or taking a beach nap.

Beach Bags & Totes
A roomy beach bag serves as command central for all your seaside essentials. We favor totes with reinforced straps and sturdy structure that can handle the weight of towels, sunscreen, snacks, and all those extras you didn't think you'd need but absolutely will. Our Changing Tides Bag is built exactly for this: an oversized paper raffia tote in soft neutral tones with a top handle that makes it effortless to carry from the car to your spot on the sand.

Woven totes with distinct structure help you stay organized without weighing you down. The Yuli Tote pairs faux leather shoulder straps and a structured leather bottom with playful two-tone stripe detailing — spacious enough for a full beach day, yet polished enough for a weekend market run after. For a similar woven look with more embellishment, the Paloma Beach Tote is a crochet raffia carryall with a snap closure, an easy shoulder bag that keeps essentials secure while still looking effortless. And if you want something a little more special, the Alfie Bag brings a cornhusk weave with faux leather straps and a magnetic flap closure, roomy enough for beach days and picnics alike, and pretty enough to carry straight into the farmer's market afterward. Bonus points for natural textures and woven patterns that make your bag easy to spot (and just as easy to love) in a crowded beach scene.

Cover-ups & Sarongs
A versatile cover-up makes transitioning from water to beach café seamless and comfortable. We love lightweight options that offer sun protection for shoulders and arms while remaining breathable in the heat. Our Sander Top + Skirt set, done in an open crochet knit in Cream, is the easiest way to layer coverage without overheating — throw the cropped top on over your bikini for a quick trip to the snack bar, or wear the tie-waist mini skirt on its own for something a little more polished. For a piece that does even more heavy lifting, the Jessa Mini in Cream is a long-sleeve crochet mini dress with a plunging neckline and keyhole detail, breezy enough for the beach but elevated enough to wear straight into dinner.

Look for quick-dry fabrics that won't stay soggy and pack down small in your beach bag. Sarongs deserve special mention for their incredible versatility, they work as skirts, dresses, shawls, or even makeshift beach blankets. Our Mika Sarong in Cream, adorned with decorative beading and crafted from soft, substantial cotton, wraps easily over any suit and looks just as at home draped over your shoulders on a breezy evening. Choose prints and colors that complement your swimwear and make you feel confident walking from your towel to the tiki bar.

Sandals & Footwear

Comfortable, sand-friendly footwear is essential for navigating hot sand, rocky shorelines, and boardwalk strolls. For an elevated take on the classic flip-flop, the TKEES Square Toe Lily in Cream is handcrafted from buttery-soft Brazilian leather with a cushioned, flexible sole — clean and polished enough to go straight from the sand to a boardwalk lunch. We recommend cushioned styles with arch support if you're planning longer walks or standing in the surf for extended periods, and the Joe Sandal, with its minimalist leather straps and toe loop, is a lightweight, all-day option that moves with you no matter how far you wander.

Water shoes provide excellent protection for rocky beaches or areas with shells and sea urchins, while sporty sandals with secure straps work well for more active beachgoers who want stability during volleyball games or coastal hikes. The TKEES Aqua Sandals in Brown are made exactly for this: a lightweight PVC upper and anti-microbial EVA sole that's fully waterproof and built to handle wet sand, tide pools, and everything in between. Look for materials that dry quickly and won't harbor bacteria or develop odors after repeated saltwater exposure. Keep a separate bag or compartment in your tote for sandy shoes so they don't dirty everything else on your trip home.

Hair Accessories
Wind, salt, and sun can wreak havoc on your hair, making functional hair clips some of the most practical beach essentials. Claw clips are perfect for securing quick updos that keep you cool while looking effortlessly chic during beach volleyball, water activities, or breezy shoreline walks. We prefer sturdy clips with strong grip that won't slip out of wet or sandy hair, like the Machete Midi Claw in Brown, a double-walled acetate claw with reinforced stainless steel hardware built to hold medium volumes of hair securely, no matter how windy the boardwalk gets.

For versatility, pack clips in various sizes. Large claw clips work well for thick hair and messy buns, while smaller clips can pin back front sections or create half-up styles, a job perfectly suited to the Machete Crescent Claw in Blonde Tortoise, whose softly contoured shape offers a lighter, effortless hold for half-up looks or securing loose flyaways. Look for rust-resistant materials that hold up to saltwater and humidity without corroding, like the hand-sculpted Italian acetate of our Machete French Hair Pin in White, a classic five-inch pin that slides in cleanly for a sleek twist or bun. Alligator clips offer secure hold for creating sleek twists or taming flyaways, while decorative clips with pearls or shells double as beach-appropriate accessories. Choose neutral colors that coordinate with your swimwear, or make a statement with tortoiseshell patterns and metallic finishes that catch the light.
