Turquoise is yet another great color suggestion if you want to walk into your bedroom and feel closer to the beach. This bedding set, with its graceful marine pattern on vivid seafoam green, is ideal for a modern beach look or a classy coastal bedroom.
3. Pastel Bedroom Theme
You don’t always have to go all out with blue shades to give your bedroom a beachy vibe. Here, you can see how that tranquility is achieved by using pillowcases in pastel colors. Also, that pillow with the giant BEACH text is pretty suggestive and also helps.
4. Beach-Inspired Teen Bedroom
If you have children that share a room, getting that beach theme going is super easy. Here you can see how it is done using specific bedding items with beach-themed colors and prints, matching headboard in the game color, and even canvases with tropical prints.
5. Surf’s Up Bedroom Theme
Nothing says “beach” like surfing, and this bedroom is clearly designed to make one dream about warm summer days, high waves, and gorgeous sunsets. Aside from the choice of colors, the vibe is achieved using tropical plants, a macrame hanging chair, and even a surfboard hung on the wall.
6. Blue Wall Nets
See how easy it is to get that beach vibe in a bedroom simply by choosing the right bedding items and a few cheap decorative elements? Here we can see how the designer chose to hang a simple blue net on the wall above the beds and attack some seashells for the full effect.
7. Sea-Themed Wallpaper
Sometimes, using specific beach-themed wallpaper to make an accent wall is all it takes to bring the sea into your bedroom. There are other elements that help as well, including that seahorse hung on the wall on the sea urchin-like decoration in the cubby of the cabinet.
8. Beach Bedroom with Chandelier
It may seem counterintuitive to put a chandelier in a beach-themed room but look how well everything comes together in this scenario. The painted canvas, the string lights, the blue bedding: everything is a small piece in the puzzle that creates this astonishing coastal bedroom vibe.
9. Blue Bedroom with Octopus Wall Art
Something as simple as specific ocean-themed art can turn your bedroom into one that’s reminiscent of sunny days by the seaside. Admittedly, the tones of blue here feel cold, but they do have that marine life air to them, so this bedroom is definitely a match for today’s theme.
10. Beach Tapestry
When looking to decorate a beach-themed bedroom whilst on a budget, some tricks can help you make it happen for a fraction of the cost of painting and redecorating the entire room. Here, it’s as simple as hanging a tapestry with waves plummeting on the wet sand of dreamy shores.
11. Playful Seashells Bedding
We love how, in this particular setup, there is a wall painting that matches the exact pattern of the ocean-themed bedding items. It’s clear just how easy it is to turn your bedroom into a vacation-inspired room that will have you craving cocktails by the seaside once again.
12. Beach Themed Bunk Beds
This has to be one of the best ideas we’ve seen for a beach themed bedroom for siblings that share a room. The large wooden bedposts and the net that serves as a railing replacement are perfect for the theme. Just make sure everything is properly installed, as whoever is using the top bunk must not roll over the edge of the bed.
13. Coastal Bedroom Wall Art
While available for purchase, beach themed wall art is pretty easy to make. If you gather a few good-looking shells or have some trinkets purchased from your previous seaside trip, you can easily create wall decorations for a beach-themed bedroom. You’ll save money and feel rewarded for showcasing your own work.
14. Boho Inspired Beach Bedroom
While it may seem unusual, you can create a coastal-themed bedroom while using certain Bohemian decor elements. Here, notice the fringed throw blanket and pillow cases that are reminiscent of Boho elements and how they are combined with beach-themed wall art).
15. Blue Window Treatments
Blue window treatments are a fast way to get to the beach-themed bedroom core you’re looking to create. While you can see that we have a matching bedframe and footrest bench, you could get those beach vibes into the bedroom even by using suitable window treatments alone.
16. Beach Themed Bedroom Details
Having wall decorations made from wooden pieces that seem to have been torn off a ship are winners when it comes to getting that ocean vibe going. If you pair them with gorgeous blue bedding items, you can get an ideal look for those who love to feel closer to the water.
17. Cozy Coastal Vibes
If you have a large and spacious bedroom to work with, you can go all out with beach-themed elements that inspire tranquility and make it ever-so-comfortable to be in your own bedroom. Here you can see how these elements are brought together through wall art, maritime decorations, and even blue bedding items.
18. Elegant Beach Themed Bedroom
Deep shades of blue always seem to make a room appear more elegant, as is the case with this one right here. The oversized pictures of sea horses are symmetrically placed on the side of the bed, creating a space of perfect balance and tranquility. However, the colors might feel a bit too cold during the winter.
19. Suave Beach Bedroom Theme
A beach theme can easily be obtained through certain elements that remind people of days on the beach. Here, you can see a large seashell chandelier placed to the side of the bed, while a macrame wall tapestry makes one dream of a hammock hanging between two palm trees.
20. Beach Themed Bedroom Poster
Even something as inexpensive and perhaps trivial as a wall poster with a tropical image can bring beachy vibes into the bedroom. Sure, the predominant white with a few drops of blue here and there also helps, but it’s mostly the image with sand and palm trees that does the job.
21. Ship Cabin Theme
Part of the concept of “being at sea” is represented by life on a ship. This is easy to achieve with a few decoration tricks that aren’t expensive at all. As you can see in this example, the wardrobe doors are made to mimic ship cabin doors, with round mirrors that mimic windows. The nautical-themed bed sheets also help.
22. Nautical Bedroom
A beach-themed bedroom can contain many different elements other than seashells and shades of blue. Here you can see dolphin-shaped decorations at the head of the bed, and even a small ship on the bench at the footrest. It’s all about putting your imagination to good use.
23. Muted Beach Bedroom Theme
Who says that in order to have a beach-themed bedroom you need to have predominant blue hues? As you can see here, it’s all about the vibe. Sure, the tropical canvas on the wall hints at the theme, but even the other choice of color makes you dream about feeling the sand between your toes.
24. Tranquil Ocean Vibes
Once again we see how bedding items can stand at the core of a beach-themed bedroom. Not only is this seashell print absolutely adorable, but you can also see the matching painting on the wall behind the bed and the tranquil blue shade painted on the walls.
25. Beach Bedroom with Painted Accent Wall
If you have a bucket of blue paint nearby and can wiggle your imagination to paint an accent wall with something that would match a beach theme, then go for it! Here you can see how the theme is brought together by painted waves, a blue lounge chair, and ottoman, but also suitable bedding.
