A baby shower is a time for a happy and relaxed celebration full of sunshine and smiles, so it makes sense that a beach theme would be perfect for this. Soft sand, fresh fruit, and shades of sea blue colors make for the ultimate atmosphere that brings the beach to the baby.
Beach Baby Shower Invitations
The beach themed baby shower invitation should feature illustrations or images of seashells and sand as a background. You can use soft pastel colors to evoke a calm beach atmosphere. You can even include cute illustrations of baby animals or babies wearing beach attire like sun hats and swim diapers.
Invitation Wording and Phrases
“Life’s a Beach, and Baby Makes Three”: Use a playful and catchy phrase like this to convey the joy of the occasion.
“Seas the Day, It’s a Baby on the Way”: A play on the phrase “seize the day” adds a touch of humor to the invitation.
“Ocean of Love”: Emphasize the love for the baby with the vastness of the ocean.
“Sun, Sand, and a Tiny Hand”: Connect the beach setting with the anticipation of holding the newborn’s hand.
“A Little Ray of Sunshine is on the Way”: Play up the sunshine aspect, symbolizing the joy the baby will bring.
Beach Baby Shower Decorations
Decorations for this sweet baby shower theme should include all things that make guests reminisce about the beach, a relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere. Keeping with the pastel blue, sandy beige, and pops of cheerful yellow to create a welcoming atmosphere.
Blue and white streamers and garlands of seashells would look gorgeous, while the music of ocean sounds playing in the background make for the best atmosphere. Soft sea blue tablecloths with satin white runners are also a nice touch to the beach décor.
Remember, this is all about the little baby to come, so you are open to incorporating baby everything into the party scheme. Think of adorable baby fishes, seals, mermaids, and seahorses.
Fishnet Draping Decoration
Hang fishnets across the walls and drape them with seashells, starfish, and twinkle lights for a coastal feel.
Beach Themed Balloon Arch
Construct an arch at the entrance and behind the main dessert table using pastel blue and white balloons. This adds a nice touch and sets the tone for a beach celebration.
Beach Themed Chair Sign
Make mommy-to-be feel extra special by creating a printable chair sign. It can add a personalized and decorative touch to the celebration.
Beach Themed Table Centerpieces
Centerpieces for tables can be as simple as a flower arrangement using wooden vases full of soft blue flowers with white babies breath or for a more crisp and bright look, you may want to go for yellow sunflowers.
Another table centerpiece idea would be to fill shallow bowls with water, place floating candles inside, and add small seashells or flowers for a serene and elegant centerpiece.
Beach Baby Shower Food
Have fun with the food at your baby shower, and start with a cute event cake. A small ombre cake in baby blue is perfect for either gender for the baby. Top it off with a baby and its surfboard topper for an overload of the cuteness factor.
Cupcakes with edible seashell and seahorse fondant garnishments, cakepops, and seashell-shaped sugar cookies neatly placed over edible sand are all really fun themed fares that guests will adore. You can ice them with pastel colors and edible glitter for a touch of elegance
Snack items like goldfish crackers, Swedish fish gummies, and finger sandwiches with fresh, light ingredients like cucumbers and ranch dressing are fantastic for the warm weather. Frozen drinks with pretty umbrella straws should also be on the menu, as they’ll be a big hit.
Beach Baby Shower Favor Ideas
Baby Shower Favors can be as simple as mini sunscreen, beach towels, seashell-shaped soaps, scrunchies, and lipbalms.
You can also wrap up an assortment of delectable treats with remarkable detailing such as anchor cookies, raspberry-filled chocolates, or fish-shaped rice crispy treats.
Beach Baby Shower Games & Activities
Engaging and entertaining games can elevate the fun factor at a beach-themed baby shower. Tailor the games to the preferences of the mommy-to-be and the guests. Incorporate elements of fun, laughter, and beach vibes for a memorable and enjoyable baby shower.
Message in a Bottle Advice
Have guests write parenting advice or well-wishes on small pieces of paper and place them in a decorative “message in a bottle.” The mommy-to-be can read these messages later for a heartwarming touch.
Sand Art Station
Set up a sand art station where guests can create colorful sand art as a fun and interactive activity.
How Many Seashells

Lifesaver Relay Race
Create a relay race where guests carry lifesavers on a spoon and pass them to the next teammate. The team that completes the relay first wins a prize.
