Coolibar keeps you covered on the beach with this Sport Sun Hat. This classic baseball cap is fitted with a long flap for extra neck and ear protection. Just like the rest of the Coolibar range, the hat and its flap are rated UPF 50+ for superior protection. While the flap is smart I concede that it's not a very fashionable feature. Thankfully it's removable though, so you can leave it at…

If the impractical nature of L*Space's Lucca cover-up left you disappointed, perhaps this Coolibar Sun Wrap will be more your speed. This sun wrap is incredibly plain, with its shawl collar and conservative cut, but its rainbow of potential color gives it a little bit of personality. I like the cheeriness of this melon pink, but as it's one of 20 shades available it's a bit difficult…

Coolibar has always cared more about keeping us safe on the beach than making us look fashionable. So it's unsurprising that with this swim shirt, it's put functionality first. We all know this isn't the most figure flattering piece of swimwear. It's shapeless and quite dowdy, something we might expect the Amish to wear for a dip. But let's face us; most of us get to a certain age and th…

Coolibar has always been a go-to brand for beach goers, but I think it's let its faithful down with this rather lackluster Sedona tote. I've never expected fashion forward style from Coolibar, but I always expect its accessories to do the job. Unless you travel light to the beach, this bag isn't going to cut it. You'll be lucky to fit a beach towel inside, let alone a pair of swimmers, ch…

Coolibar tends to be a label that puts sun smart over style, so I was pleasantly surprised by the vintage appeal of this woven City Stroll hat. It might have been designed with the urban jungle in mind, but I imagine this hat would be just as appropriate for days spent lolling about the beach. Its design really lends itself to those summer vacations. It can roll up to fit inside a beach bag…

It's not the most fashion forward hat, but its colorful braided macramé band and tassel of beads gives it some real personality. These vibrant em…

Coolibar says it's provided "everything you need to spend a day at the shore" with its Ultimate Beach Umbrella Ensemble. Some may argue that swimsuits, towels, and sunglasses are just as important as the items included in this set, but it still covers some major bases. The centerpiece is the generous beach umbrella, which has a sturdy aluminum pole and a large canopy with a 64-inch d…

Large beach umbrellas are a great way to be sun smart on the beach, but they're also cumbersome and awkward to carry. For a more compact alternative, look to this travel-size sun umbrella from Coolibar. I must stress that this is strictly a sun umbrella. A few customers have complained that the flimsy fiberglass spokes cave in at the slightest wind, so it's never going to help you in a s…
