I didn’t know I needed a beach cover-up kimono—until I slipped one on during a trip to Tulum. I was just looking for something to toss over my bikini on the walk from the hotel to the shore. But what I found was a wardrobe secret I never knew I was missing.
Light. Effortless. A little dramatic in the best way. And now, it comes with me everywhere the sun goes.
The Beauty of Simplicity
Let’s be honest—packing for the beach should be easy. A swimsuit, sandals, sunscreen, and something to throw on when the breeze picks up or you're heading to lunch. The kimono checks all those boxes without trying too hard.
It’s not clingy. It doesn’t wrinkle in your bag. It dances when the wind blows and makes a casual walk feel like a slow-motion moment from a movie.
Not Just for the Beach, Either
That’s the best part. One minute you're using it to cover up after a swim, and the next it’s layered over a tank top and jeans for rooftop drinks. I've even tied mine up as a wrap dress when I forgot to pack something for dinner. Problem solved—stylishly.
Choosing One That Feels Like You
There are tons out there—some long and dramatic, others short and flirty. Some bold with wild prints, others muted and minimal. No rules. Just go with what you feel good in.
Look for breathable fabric. Something light, that floats and folds up small. Think cotton, rayon, or that silky-soft material that barely feels like it’s there.
The Bottom Line
A beach cover-up kimono is one of those rare pieces that makes you feel like you’ve got it all together, even when your hair's salty and your sandals are full of sand. It’s style without the stress. Effort without effort.
And when your suitcase is already bursting, it’s the one piece that always, always makes the cut.
