Upgrade Your Beach Day With These 14 Most Stylish Beach Lounge Chairs

Last Updated 19 Apr 2024 by Fiona Perisone

A beach lounge chair can be a game-changer on beach days— especially if it's equipped with backpack straps, zippered pockets, drink holders, and other practical design features.

But don't let the name fool you! A beach lounge chair can be used for much more than trips to the beach. Toss it in your trunk before trips to the pool, park, or campsite. No matter the setting, the fourteen styles below are the perfect spot to unwind.

The 14 Most Stylish Beach Lounge Chair Options

The best beach lounge chairs are designed with frequent outdoor use in mind. Look for products made using powder-coated stainless steel or hardwood frames and water-resistant canvas fabric. For maximum versatility, opt for a foldable, backpack-style seat you can take on the go and is easy to carry.

Spot clean and store your chair indoors between uses to keep it in tip-top shape for longer. But don't hesitate to pull it out at home for extra seating at backyard get-togethers and neighborhood BBQs.
