One essential every beach-goer needs: an easy-to-transport, waterproof bag to hold their items. Nike Swim Locker Bags feature a compact design that’s still big enough to stash a towel, swimsuit, goggles and more.

Gift the underwater explorer in your life a fresh pair of high-quality Nike goggles, which come in a few varieties:

• Nike Vapor: These goggles have curved, oversized lenses that help enhance an individual’s field of vision underwater. The ultra low-profile design also helps avoid drag moving through the water, making them ideal for the serious swimmer in your life.
• Nike Legacy: While Legacy goggles are also engineered for strong underwater swimming, they’re built for comfort, with many varieties featuring ergonomic nose bridges to fit a wide variety of faces.
• Nike Easy Fit Kids’ Swim Goggles: Designed to grow alongside a little one, these goggles feature a stretchy, angled strap that helps distribute pressure across the head for a comfortable fit — no matter what stage of growth they’re in.

Advanced and beginner swimmers can benefit from Nike’s Swim Accessories, including towels, swim bags, swim caps and more.

A swim cap is a necessary item for any ocean swimmer. Nike swim caps are crafted with hypoallergenic, high-stretch silicone that’s easy to slip on. The Nike Solid Long Hair Silicone Training Cap contains extra space for folks with long hair.

Nike Swim Fins feature a shorter blade than most swim fins, helping optimize swimming efficiency and kicking speed. They also have an open toe box with grooves at the tip of the blade for a customized fit.

When it comes time to pack up and trek across a sandy beach to go home, your loved one will be thankful you scooped them up a pair of lightweight Nike sandals and slides. Shop these popular varieties:

• Nike Victori One: With soft, responsive foam and a lightweight design, these slides are a great, no-fail gift for beach lovers.
• Nike Vista: These sandals feature a snug and adjustable strap system that will ensure the shoe stays put — even when trudging through thick sand (or for exploring fun tide pools).

Nike sunglasses are designed for athletes — which means they fit snugly (and comfortably) on the face to prevent the sun from impeding vision. This makes them a great gift for folks who love to play in the sand or water, as Nike sunglasses are sure to stay put.

Shop sport-oriented varieties like the Nike Windtrack, which helps runners clear condensation thanks to targeted geometric vents. Or, for laying out, choose the stylish Nike Grand.

Nike sweat-wicking caps are ideal for beach days for two main reasons. First, many varieties are designed for sport with Dri-FIT technology that helps keep moisture from accumulating on the head. Second, Nike caps are made for all-day wear with soft fabric and features meant to reduce glare.

No beach day is complete without at least one round of beach volleyball. Gift the athlete in your life a Nike volleyball designed for performance, like the Nike Championship 12P volleyball, made with premium synthetic leather that is soft to the touch with each bump, set or spike.

Ensure your loved one has a garment to keep them warm when a cool sea breeze blows in — like a Nike hoodie. Find a hoodie that matches their comfort and style preferences, including designs with sweat-wicking Dri-FIT technology, fuzzy fleece inner linings and both tight- and loose-fit varieties.

Nike swimwear is available in a multitude of patterns, colors and styles, from two-piece sets to one-pieces and trunks — making it a top gift for any ocean lover. Many swimsuits feature Nike HydraStrong fabric that ensures lasting durability and won’t deteriorate with repeated dips in salt water.
