By Laura Lajiness Kaupke, January 9, 2024

The best designer beach bags for 2024 are more than just a place to stash your sunscreen, snacks, and a towel. Each one, carefully crafted of raffia, crocheted cotton, and beyond, promises durability, style, and a luxurious touch to elevate your seaside aesthetic. As essential to a beach day as the perfect swimsuit for a pool party, the most directional of the bunch blend functionality and distinctive craftsmanship, from spacious totes adorned with bold logos, to sleek, minimalist designs that reflect the serene beauty of the ocean.

Choosing the right beach bag is about balancing practical needs with personal style. Look for durable materials that withstand sand and sun while complementing your coastal attire (think of nylon, neoprene, raffia, and straw) and features from waterproof compartments to versatile straps that offer comfort and multi-way carrying convenience. Whether you're lounging by the Mediterranean or strolling along a local boardwalk, our edit of the top designer beach bags ahead ensures you'll find the perfect companion for every sun-soaked adventure—bring on the sun.
