Beach and ocean jewelry is always a customer favorite during the summer. Add some of these bestselling jewelry pieces to your retail store for easy upsell items.

Wholesale beach jewelry offers high retail margins and sales per square foot returns. It is an easy product line to try in your merchandising selection. You can start with a small collection of products with a creative display near your cash register or on tabletops around your store.  

Why Customers Love Beach Jewelry 

Beach jewelry brings back happy memories of vacations to the seaside. Keepsake items make wonderful gifts or souvenirs.  

Which Beach Jewelry Items are Most Popular? 

Starfish Jewelry

Starfish pendants are always bestsellers among wholesale beach jewelry choices. Starfish live in most ocean environments from tropical seas to the chilly Pacific. Beach combers prize starfish in their shell collections. Plus, there are a wide range of artistic interpretations of starfish jewelry to fit any retail boutique aesthetic.

Sand Dollar Jewelry

Sand Dollars hit all the same notes as starfish in your jewelry displays. These beloved sea creatures are treasured around the world. Oddly, starfish and sand dollar charms consistently outperform seashell motifs year-after-year.

Silver Anklets 

Nothing complements sandy feet like a cute, beachy silver anklet. Summer weather brings out the pedicures and anklet buyers every year. Silver anklets are the perfect complement to sundresses and sandals.

Whale Tail Jewelry

Whales are less widespread than other ocean creatures. But a whale sighting is always a vacation highlight for those lucky enough to spot them breaching the ocean surface. Perhaps, that is why whale tail charms are consistent winners for jewelry retailers. People gravitate towards whales for their intelligence and social nature.
