The best part? These gifts are all travel-friendly, so any TBL can easily bring these along on their next all-inclusive beach vacation.
Reusable water bottle
All of that beach-going can make a traveler thirsty! Having a water bottle that's cute, reusable and functional is always necessary throughout your travels and even when you're in-destination. This collapsible water bottle is the perfect gift for the beach lover in your life because it's easy to travel with, durable and good for the environment, which is always a plus! For a more personal touch, this customizable, stainless steel tumbler would also be the perfect reusable water bottle to gift.

For the adventurous beach lover, we know they'd appreciate not having to use those masks given out on group snorkel outings. Help them feel prepared for their vacation with the perfect snorkel mask to take along so they can enjoy a little underwater action without having to worry about sharing germs or getting salt water in their eyes. To really impress your TBL, you could even snag one of these more advanced full-face snorkel masks with a built-in air filter.

If you want to score some major brownie points from your beach lover, then this GoPro just might be the perfect gift. GoPros are great for adventure junkies and photography enthusiasts who always want to get the best shots on their outings. Your TBL can take their GoPro on a snorkeling adventure, zip lining excursion, parasailing outing–anywhere! To say this gift would be put to good is use is an understatement, for sure.

Since you can't spend every day on the beach (sigh), why not bring the beach to the comfort of your home? In the season of cozy mornings or evenings avoiding the cold weather, give someone the gift of the beach with this beautifully scented soy wax candle that reminds of them of warmer days by the ocean. Gifting nontoxic, soy wax candles is also a great way to stay eco-friendly this holiday season!

Another hot ticket for beach lovers is a quality pair of sunglasses. Whether it's as a stocking stuffer or a present under the tree, these Raybans are always a TBL favorite. If you're looking for a more affordable option, we always recommend these mirrored aviators and vintage round sunglasses!

Whether your beach lover is single or tied down, taking photos of themselves can be hard. We recommend sending them off to the beach with this selfie tripod. It's small, bendable and travels easily. Trust us, they will thank you quicker than they'll be taking their next selfie! This mini tripod is the perfect gift.
Sunhat
What beach lover wouldn't want a giant hat to shield the sun? Everyone loves a good dose of Vitamin D but, sometimes, even we can get a little too much. A giant, floppy sunhat is the perfect way to shield your face and shoulders from the sun, making one the perfect gift for a beach lover!

Every True Beach Lover needs to get the perfect shot to show everyone back home just how splendid their beach vacay was.... But things can get a little messy when it comes to technology and water. Gift your beach lover this floating phone case and they'll have endless photos to share with you when they return.
Cute beach blanket/towel
For the True Beach Lover who likes to stand out when they're on the beach, this adorable, oversized beach towel is the perfect gift for them. A beach lover can honestly never have too many beach towels or blankets! Plus, the more unique their towel is, the easier it is to find their spot after taking a walk or swim in the ocean.
Make your TBL standout with a beautiful oversized beach towel.
