    33 TikTok-Famous Products You’ll Love For A Beach Or Pool Day

    Three words: Sandproof. Beach. Blanket.

    1. A truly miraculous sand-free beach blanket that repels sand and dirt so easily that you'll wonder if someone cast a spell on it. Parents especially love this because babies and toddlers can lay on it without getting sand in their mouths, and it's ridiculously easy to repack without worrying about taking half the sand from the beach with you. Oh, and it's also GINORMOUS. (And packs up super small!)

    Promising review: "I walk to the beach and the park with my baby all the time and was sick of my butt getting wet when we sat on the grass and the baby getting all sandy when sitting on towels. I decided to search Amazon for some kind of beach blanket. This blanket wasn’t really what I was looking for, but it did not disappoint! First of all it’s HUGE. I still haven’t used it open all the way yet. It’s compact and easy to carry, I love that there are pockets to weigh it down with sand, that sand rolls right off, and that I can just stuff it right back in the little bag without having to fold it strategically when I’m done. I can take the baby to the beach and lay her on her tummy without worrying about sand getting on her hands and face. Great product!!" —Adriana

    Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in two colors).

    2. A reviewer-beloved "Everywhere" towel designed with a polyester microsuede material that repels sand and makes it dry *super* quickly (and also makes it feel super soft!) so you can dunk in the ocean and dry off multiple times in one day. These are also designed to pack super tightly so they won't take up much space in your bag!

    Rumpl is an Oregon-based small business specializing in outdoor blankets that donates a portion of its revenue to environmental nonprofits.

    Promising review: "This towel dries better than a conventional towel! Not only that but it was completely dry and ready to reuse in about 10 minutes. Normally we'd go through a stack of beach towels in one day. The towel itself is big but it packs up compact leaving more room in your bag for other things. It's soooo soft, made very well, and the pattern is gorgeous. I will be replacing all of my towels with these!!"Danielle W.

    Get it from Rumpl for $37.50+ (available in 21 colors) or Amazon for $50 (available in five colors). 

    3. A pair of popular cushioned "recovery" sandals perfect for anyone who is craving all the cute summer fashion with a side of ridiculous comfort. (And pain relief!) Not only are these super adorable, but reviewers with pain from plantar fasciitis, bunions, spondylilothesis, and other chronic conditions absolutely swear by them, with a ton saying they're like walking on ~clouds~. 

    Promising review: "Total comfort and instant relief from plantar fasciitis. I will order more." —mrs flores

    "I heard about these shoes on TikTok from someone who really hyped them up. I have had really bad back pain over the years, I'm in my kitchen a lot and it would kill my back. After I heard how soft these were I order a pair in black and I live in them. No more back pain standing in my kitchen for hours baking. They are so comfortable very lightweight and I keep telling everyone about them. I can't wait to order some more in different colors. I really wish they made them in a light mint green, lol. Definitely worth every penny." —britney

    Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in women's sizes 5–12 and 20 colors). 

    4. A set of sunscreen reminder stickers — these UV stickers have SPF recognition and will change colors to let you know both when your SPF is working, and then again when it's time to slather more sunscreen on. Each sticker is water-resistant and works for up to twelve hours. NOT TODAY, SUN!!!

    Promising review: "After yet another bad sunburn even though I'm trying VERY HARD to keep sunscreen on, I bought these. First use was at Disneyland on a 90-degree zero clouds day. This helped so much! I kept an eye (as did my friends) on the dot so we all knew when to reapply sunscreen and not one of us got burned. I also used these on a weeklong hiking adventure in Utah where it was also in the 90s with an extreme UV index. None of us got burned, so all in all this is one of the best inventions!" —Catherine Shock

    5. A durable waterproof and sandproof Bluetooth speaker so you can enjoy some tunes on all your beach days without worrying about its wires getting fried by sneaky waves or unexpected downpours.

    Check out a TikTok of the Oontz speaker in action. 

    This also easily connects to smart devices like Alexa and Google Home, if you want to listen to the news or certain playlists outside while your devices stay indoors!

    Promising review: "This is a seriously awesome speaker! We live in Florida and spend 90% of our weekends at the beach or by the pool. We had one of those old speakers where you have to plug your phone in and I was getting sick of not being able to use my phone when at the beach/pool because it was plugged in. This was the perfect solution! Not only can I use my phone now because it's Bluetooth, BUT it's waterproof and sandproof. No more crackly speakers. This one has super clear audio and can get really loud too! Can you tell I'm not a tech nerd :). Because it's waterproof we can leave it on our patio all the time too. We obviously have super high humidity and torrential downpours all the time so I don't have to worry about this. When we're ready to party all I have to do is turn it on and put the play list on! Plus you seriously can't beat the cost!" —Lindsey R. 

    Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in eight colors).

    6. A portable handheld fan that's also a flashlight that's *also* a power bank for phones, all of which to say is that this tiny gadget it is officially working overtime. Travelers especially love all three of these deeply convenient functions!!

    Promising review: "Our vacation planner suggested getting something like this for when you're waiting in line at an amusement park when the sun is out. Best advice ever, used this when we were at Disney this past year. It's lightweight and doesn't weigh you down, the fan has adjustable speeds and also includes a phone charger via USB A port and also a flashlight function. Love that it folds up nice and small, great fan that I'd recommend to anyone!" —Andrew

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in three colors). 

    7. A lightweight, eye-catching striped lounge set so breezy that your address will be "beach vacation" even when you're nowhere near the shore. Reviewers especially love how fun it is to mix and match the pieces with denim bottoms or fun tops!

    Promising review: "I bought this for vacation but also just a cute summer set, and I love it! The shorts fit great, and the top is oversized just like I wanted. I wore it with a white cropped shirt and kept the top unbuttoned." —Jessica

    "Bought this cause I saw a girl on TikTok wear it. And I was very happy with what I received. This types of sets are hit and miss. This is a hit. I sizes up for a more oversized look and it was perfect! I recommend!" —Rosemary Andreas

    Get it from Amazon for $36.99 (available in women's sizes S–XL and 30 styles). 

    8. A black bikini set that's truly an "investment piece" — TikTok trends come and go, but this classic cut just plain never goes out of style.

    Promising reviews: "I’ve tried probably 10+ bathing suits from Amazon looking to find one that fits right, IS NOT a thong, has padding, and ties on the sides and this is it. I bought it in black also because I love how it fits so much. It still has a cheeky bottom but it provides far more coverage than any suit I’ve purchased within the last few years. I highly recommend this suit!" —Mackenzie Lindquist

    "Love this suit. I was looking for a basic triangle suit that I could tie different ways like I saw on TikTok. This top is so cute and the scrunch on the butt of the bottoms is so [nice]. Definitely a staple this summer."  —Sophie M.

    Get it from Amazon for $24.99+  (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and in 33 colors/patterns).

    9. And a customizable one-piece swimsuit you can get in three different styles — cheeky, medium, or full-coverage — so your butt can be like Goldilocks and get the fit that feels juuuuust right.

    Promising review: "High quality suit — good thickness and sleek fit. I preferred the full-coverage bottom as the medium coverage was too cheeky for me. It will be great for chasing my kids." —Becky I. 

    Get it from Andie Swim for $98 (available in sizes XS–XXXL, three fabrics, fifteen colors, three bottom fit options, and two lengths). 

    10. A set of adjustable mesh "sea shell collecting" bags beloved by parents and kids alike — these make it super easy for kids to cart their own things around in outdoor activities, and since the mesh is waterproof it makes for easy cleanup and storage.

    Promising review: "I bought these for my kids to use on vacation where we'd be camping and doing lots of outdoor activities. They used them to collect rocks and other interesting finds. They held up well and several months later with use at home there are no rips or tears. The mesh was convenient when collecting rocks on the beach, and we wanted to hose everything down before bringing them inside. They have an adjustable strap and very easily fit all of my kids ranging from ages two to 10 (could fit older kids, too). I highly recommend!" —a_bennet

    Get a set of three from Amazon for $11.84+ (available in two sizes and nine color combinations). 

    11. A portable Chill-O-Matic Instant Beverage Cooler, aka every finicky cold bevvie drinker's DREAM. This gadget can take a 12-ounce can of seltzer, soda, or beer make it ice cold in just one minute, making it ideal for drinks that need a little extra ~sprucing~ if they're lukewarm in the cooler.

    Promising review: "I was so afraid of wasting money. But I didn’t. I love my sodas cold. But sometimes there’s not a cold one available, and waiting 30-40 min for one to get cold in the freezer is not always ideal. This will get your room temp can to fridge cold in 90 seconds. I let it run double that to get almost freezer cold. I wish it had a power cord. But I do appreciate the portability that the batteries provide. I can’t wait to try it out on vacationing, as access to cold sodas isn’t always available. All you need is a literally a little bit of ice." —G. Massey

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99

    12. A set of towel clips you can attach to a beach chair to stop it from blowing away while you're off gallivanting in the ocean trying to make friends with a mermaid. Reviewers also love this for building blanket forts, holding down tablecloths, and hanging wet items like suits and towels at the end of a long beach day. 

    Check out a TikTok of the towel clips in action. 

    Promising review: "I purchased these for a family of eight going on a cruise and they loved them! So easy to use, just put your towel on the beach chair and clip down with these. They said they were especially awesome on windy days when others towels were blowing away if they were not sitting on the chair. The family was able to go to lunch or take a walk and not worry that their towels had been blown away and someone had then snagged their seats. Very inexpensive and functional clips." —TypeA

    Get a set of 16 from Amazon for $9.99

    13. A set of affordable, highly popular wireless Bluetooth earbuds that are DELIGHTFULLY waterproof (like, you can fully take them in the pool) and come with several silicone earbuds to get the best fit possible.

    These come with a wireless charging case that provides up to 14 hours of charge (with the earbuds able to play for four-plus hours with each full charge). 

    Promising review: "Best decision! These are the greatest headphones ever! I saw them on TikTok months ago and added them to my wishlist. I got a new phone that doesn't have the headphone port so I decided it was time to finally buy them. They are amazing and I probably won't ever take them out of my ears! 😂" —Katlyn D Arnold

    Get it from Amazon $18.99+ (available in four colors).

    14. A truly multitalented set of cooling towels you can use to beat the heat — all you have to do is wet these and they get chilly, perfect for draping on your head, neck, or other overheated areas. Once the chill runs out you can wet them again to get it back!  

    Promising review: "I saw these recommended on a TikTok for disabled people who can't regulate their temperature in the heat, and omg, was it worth buying them. You just add cold water and it's like an ice pack without the burning of the ice. They worked great for cooling my arm after the Covid shot! Excited to use them all summer!" —Muirgen Neal

    Get a set of four for $12.79+ (available in 13 color combos). 

    15. A pair of fluttery running shorts to keep you breezy and chill when the sun decides to *aggressively* join you while you're lounging between ocean romps. 

    Promising review: "I ordered these because I saw them on TikTok. I am 5’10 and 140 pounds. I ordered an extra large and they are perfect! They cover everything and are not too short. I highly recommend them, especially for the price!" —MagnoliaBliss

    Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 29 colors). 

    16. A 3-in-1 Brumate Hopsulator designed to be the only can cooler you'll ever need — it's size adjustable to fit 12-ounce *and* 16-ounce cans, and can even serve as its own leakproof tumbler with a lid if you just want to pour liquid directly into it and keep it hot *or* cold. Goodness gracious I have never worked as hard as this gizmo in my LIFE. 

    Check out a TikTok of the 3-in-1 Hopsulate in action. 

    Promising review: "My partner and I both love ice cold sodas, unfortunately after the satisfaction of the first few gulps the can gets lukewarm pretty quick. This Brumate is soooo awesome!! Cans stay cold for a long time — long enough to finish the can at a slower pace without worrying. No condensation outside. And it works super well as a thermos both cold and hot. I bought another one for myself its so awesome!"  —sunny shin

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in 22 colors). 

    17. A universal stroller cup holder to change the game for anyone who has a rotation of Too Many Beverages at the tips of their fingers at all times.

    Ryan & Rose is a family-owned small business that specializes in parenting and home products. 

    Promising review: "This is the best invention ever! Our stroller does not have a cup holder, now I can hold my drink or my phone/keys/sunglasses. I also bought two more so our boys can keep their water bottles in one spot since they lose them all the time. I’ve put them in the house and I’ve hung them in the car. I think I need 10 more of these things. Must have product." —Healthnut

    Get it from Amazon for $18.99 (available in 11 colors). 

    18. Plus a CarryAround foldable cup holder perfect for pool days, and family meals, or vacations — this easily fans out to hold up to four regular or large-sized drinks, so you only have to make one trip to bring coffee or beers or giant waters back to the squad.

    Promising review: "I am obsessed with these! I bought one for myself and immediately turned around and got a four-pack so I can keep extras in my desk at work and my car and give a few to friends. The cardboard carriers that you usually get from restaurants are wasteful and still need to be supported with two hands. With this, I can carry two to four beverages and a bag of take out food all in one hand with a hand free to open doors and such! There is no support underneath so you cannot leave them sitting in the carrier once you're in a car, but I wouldn't trust a cardboard carrier on the seat of my car full of drinks anyway. It is incredibly sturdy and everywhere I go I get constant compliments when I use it! I have run into very few cups that are too large, overall this is a total win! Can't recommend enough." —Allison

    Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in multipacks). 

    19. A pair of popular quick-dry water shoes to keep your feet from burning or getting beaten up on beach trips all summer — reviewers love these for everything from walking on rockier beaches to kayaking to washing their cars. They're flexible and comfy like a sock, but protective against nefarious objects like sharp rocks and stray Legos.

    Promising review: "I bought these shoes a couple of years ago before a river hike. UM THESE ARE AWESOME. They lasted a long time and the only reason I bought these yellow ones were because I wanted a new color, haha. My older pair did start to wear out in the toes from scraping them on rocks and such when hiking but still no holes in them. These shoes feel like socks but with enough of a sole that you can walk on gravel with no problem. It really is like walking barefoot. Also, these are the only water shoes that I have worn that do NOT let a bunch of debris into the shoe making you constantly have to take it off to empty it or just deal with the irritant. You can play on the beach with minimal sand stuck between your toes. Thoroughly impressed by that. So with that, I do recommend if you are a half size to size down so they are snug, otherwise the sock like ability to keep stuff out might not work so well." —Samantha Lindsay

    "TikTok made me buy them. Love them. Taking them on vacation for planned walking, I'm so excited!" —Sabrena Johnson

    Get it from Amazon for $9.88+ (available in seven sizes and 44 colors).

    20. A truly delightful retro-style fringe umbrella you can get in a ton of prints — reviewers love these for the beach, for patio tables, and for picnicking in the park.

    Promising review: "This umbrella is exactly what my family was looking for as our everyday beach umbrella — large diameter, high quality, and cute retro design. It is a higher end umbrella but still slightly less expensive than the other big name designer beach gear company that we were considering. It is easy to pop up and stays standing, and we’ve had many compliments from other people at the beach asking where we got it. The customer service from the company was excellent. Would definitely recommend these umbrellas!" —Taryn

    Get it from Amazon for $165 (available in seven colors). 

    21. An attachable beach umbrella table you can clamp right onto the rod to hold all your snacks, drinks, and gadgets off the ground. (Unless you *enjoy* your chips with a side of unsettlingly crunchy sand, in which case, keep doing what you're doing!!)

    Check out a TikTok of the beach umbrella table in action. 

    Promising review: "This worked great for our beach trip! It was nice to be able to have everything out of the sand. We had placed it up at the top by the umbrella and down low so we could reach it while on our chairs. I’d definitely recommend this." —TJ

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in four styles). 

    22. Tower 28's SunnyDays Tinted Sunscreen Foundation perfect for anyone looking for no-fuss, lightweight, protective coverage — this rocks some SPF 30, is easily buildable, and reviewers with sensitive and acne-prone skin *swear* by it.

    Promising review: "Needed a new tinted moisturizer and heard great things about this via TikTok. I got the shade PCH and it blends in so nicely into my skin. My typical shade is Fenty 290 or 10/11 but i am pretty pale so PCH is perfect! Not orange! " —KWally21

    Get it from Sephora for $32 (available in 15 shades).

    23. An insulated tumbler that thousands of reviewers swear by to keep their cold brew and iced tea so cold that the ice doesn't melt even after a full 12 hours, even in the heat. Bonus? It comes with two lids! One is a flip-top lid for hot drinks, and the other is a lid with a straw for all your cold ones. Get you an insulated tumbler that can do both!!!

    Promising review: "We got a chance to go on our first tropical vacation since our honeymoon 12 years ago, and we used these to keep our drinks cold at the beach. We would make drinks in the room and take them down with us. When we'd finish those, we'd buy drinks from the servers at the beach, but we'd put them in these mugs to keep them cold, and also because the paper straws they provided with their drinks would deteriorate too quickly. I've only used these twice for hot drinks, and they seemed to work well, too." —J. Carlton

    "I saw this on TikTok, and of course I had to try it lol (I’m easily influenced). I love my new cup!! Perfect size. So simple and aesthetically pleasing. Added bonus — it fits in my cup holder in my truck. If ur on the fence about it, just give it a try." —Sarah

    Get it from Amazon for $23.99 (available in 10 colors and four sizes). 

    24. lace-y mini dress with a sweet open tie-back reviewers absolutely *SWEAR* by in the heat — nothing will beat the chic breeziness of this beach staple once the sun starts cooking with gas this summer.

    Promising review: "This dress is REALLY pretty in person. I like it a lot. I don't think there is any way to wear a bra with it but the material is thick enough that it's not necessary. The back is really beautiful. You must tie it right to get it to lay flat." —Connor McKay

    "This dress is beautiful. I saw it on TikTok and took a risk purchasing, and I’m so happy I did. I’m very happy with this product." —Natalia

    Get it from Amazon for $31.19+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 27 colors).

    25. The glare-free, WATERPROOF (!!) Kindle Paperwhite you can safely splash around with all summer long.

    Promising review: "I am in freaking love with this hat. All my friends tell me how amazing it looks on me. I have been wanting a nice ball cap, but since I normally have my hair up, I couldn’t find one that worked till this came along on my TikTok, and I knew I had to get it. And I was so happy I waited till it was in stock again. I just love this hat. I wasn’t sure about the size but just went for a small/medium size since I thought that would fit, and it’s just perfect when my hair is up. I am so happy." —Naysa H

    Get it from Ponyback for $42 (available in youth sizes S/M and M/L and women's sizes XS–XXLG and in 12 colors).

    Promising review: "I saw this on a TikTok video and checked on Amazon and ordered it. My toy poodle loves it and drank out of it with no hesitation. With the heat wave we are having in California right now I want to be sure she is well hydrated. Before I leave the house I fill the holder with ice and water and I am set. Easy to clean and no spilled water in the car. Easy to throw in my purse and have it when we are out walking around. I know what people with dogs are getting for Christmas this year." —Amazon Customer

    Promising review: "The adults in this house love water balloons but not the mess….. plus with toddlers around, it didn’t quite make sense to have water balloons but we saw a random video on TikTok and HAD to find reusable water balloons to try out. These were the first ones we bought to try out, and WHOA we were blown away! Super easy to for the 2- and 3-year-old to use, which means more fun for all of us!! Do not think twice or continue with regular water balloons, you’ll waste precious time cleaning up and filling that could be used to make memories." —Taurus

    Promising review: "I used this fan when I went to the beach with my 7-week-old son! I attached it to his stroller and he stayed cool the whole time he was outside. Since returning we use it in the car, for stroller rides, I even use it when I’m hot in the house! The bendable legs make it easy to attach to any surface or allow it to stand on a flat surface. All around best purchase I have made this summer! Will be purchasing another!" —Jessica

    "Definitely a good purchase. I would repurchase this! Best thing to ever go viral on TikTok. Even in freezing weather, my little one sweats in his car seat and he becomes the crankiest pants ever. This helps sooth him and keeps him SO COOL. The LED is chef's kiss especially when we go home at night." —Len O

    32. beach bag that *allegedly* (totally) has a secret compartment where one might be able to stash, oh, say, two bottles' worth of chilled wine? If one wanted to partake in such a thing on the beach. Just an option!!!

    Promising review: "What a genius idea. I've brought it to several outings, and it has saved me tons of money, as wine is so marked up everywhere. Each bladder holds a big 1.5L of wine, so I happily share with friends; and they are all wanting one too. I am thinking margaritas and mixed drinks at the beach this summer as well. It comes with three different bladders, so the sky is the limit. I have had no problem washing and air drying the bladders to refill. The purse is made well and has been very durable for me. This should definitely be on your wish list!" —Denise DiUbaldi
