Summer’s here and we’re getting into a “beachy” frame of mind around here.
I’m from Florida and I absolutely adore the beach, so for this book roundup, I decided to feature the best beach books for kids!
There are 25 books about the beach for toddlers, preschoolers, and early elementary-aged kids to look at, read, and enjoy.
What I love about these books is that they focus on the beach itself, not just stories that take place there.
So, if you’re doing a beach unit soon, these are excellent reading choices!
Read on to see the full list. And, keep reading to pick up a fun beach themed counting resource too!
If these are a hit, check out some other summer reads, including some cool ice cream books for kids!

Whether you live near the shore or not, the beach is a wonderful theme for early learners.

Plus, we get to find out about incredible scientific principles such as buoyancy, erosion, and evaporation.
There are also plenty of beach crafts for kids and beach-y treats to make. Take a look at some of our favorite beach crafts for some inspiration!
