If you’re anything like us, a beach trip doesn’t involve simply throwing a towel over your shoulder and making a beeline for the water. No, hot summer days on the sand require a checklist of accessories, including but not limited to sunglasses, sunscreen, our current beach read, a big water bottle and our phones.
With so much to juggle on top of our stylish beach cabana and matching towel, it only makes sense we invest in a chic beach-appropriate tote.
Not any old bag will do, either.
The perfect beach bag is stylish enough to take you from seaside to sunset drinks, fit all the aforementioned accessories and be suited to sand inevitably finding its way into every crevice and corner possible.
To slip seamlessly into our summer aesthetic we’re opting for raffia, crochet and canvas totes with hints of glamour.
Whether you’re after the beach bag of the season like Prada’s Raffia Tote, a cult-classic like LOEWE’s Ibiza Tote, or something in between, we’ve found the most stylish beach totes to shop, below.
