I’ve rounded up the best Summer tote bags for all tastes and budgets, including designer beach bags, monogrammed beach bags, canvas, straw, woven and leather tote bags. I tried to include beach tote bags that were both appropriate for everyday and also ones for the beach that aren’t as expensive or obviously logoed.
I’ve also rounded up a mix of sizes from larger oversized totes when you need a towel and your entire life and smaller sizes for when you’re just popping to the beach bar or day club.
Are beach bags in style for 2025
Summer tote bags aren’t something that ever go out of style and always get so much use. However, it’s straw, wicker and canvas beach totes that are the most in style for 2025. Just be careful with straw and wicker beach bags around fragile fabrics like satin and silk so that you don’t pull your clothes or swimwear.
That’s why I tend to end up with canvas iterations like my Dior canvas book tote or Chanel Deauville tote bag more often than not.
Are monogrammed beach bags in style?
Yes, as they’re another classic. Monogrammed bags are more of a personal preference than being in or out of fashion. If you’re planning on reselling your bag later down the line though, it’ll make it more difficult if it’s monogrammed. On the plus side, it’s less desirable to thieves.
How to care for your beach tote
One tip I learned this year was that it doesn’t matter how big the bag, still don’t overload them. As this can stretch the bag and the handles and they won’t last as long.
The Best Beach Totes & Summer Tote Bags for 2025
These diverse summer totes and beach totes range from simple to statement, designer tote bags to luxe for less. I found a super cute woven tote for $26 all the way up to the 3 most coveted designer tote bags of the year.
- Chanel Deauville tote bag is probably the most classic and coveted designer beach bag and one of my top picks for the best designer beach bags for 2025. Full Deauville review. I like that it has a couple of interior pockets, an interior zipper pocket for smaller items like credit cards and is big enough for a beach towel.
- The new Versace La Medusa Barocco Sea logo canvas beach tote from their La Vacanza collection is a fun and colorful option. It’s bold Medusa head makes it instantly and iconically Versace and the fun reef print is so bright and beachy. Since this bag can be used for both the beach and resort, it’s perfect for when you’re packing for vacation and trying to pack less.
- Prada is such a hot brand this year and their woven crochet bag is super cute and practical. This designer beach tote is perfect for resort wear, the pool and beach.

What’s on the best designer beach bags 2025 edit
- Versace: The La Medusa collection is colorful, chic and covered in this designers logos. The Versace denim designer beach bag is perfect for vacations, poolside or an everyday bag for all seasons giving it great CPW. The navy and white is particularly chic.
- Mark & Graham large Palm Leaf Tote looks like a luxury beach bag but is under $100. If you’re looking for a monogrammed beach bag this tote bag is one of their best sellers and I can see why. This roomy summer tote bag has a soft linen lining and an interior pocket for your room key and anything else you want to find easily.
Mark & Graham is a new discovery for me. I ended up picking 4 from this online store as I couldn’t narrow down their stylish monogrammed tote bags anymore than that. I’m not normally a monogram girl but these beauties caught my eye. - Bamboo Elisabetta Raffia Tote Bag $398. This is one of their more expensive totes as its handcrafted in Florence from Italian raffia with polished bamboo handles. There’s also an internal zippered section that divides the bag into three compartments. This would make a great gift for destination wedding bridesmaids.
- Ribbon Straw Monogrammed Beach Tote $79 from Mark & Graham’s new collection.
- Palermo Straw Beach Tote. Another straw tote from Mark & Graham and it’s on sale for $99. You can order any of Mark & Graham’s totes without monogramming if you don’t like monogrammed beach bags.
- Saint Laurent YSL raffia beach tote makes finding everything easy. This simple but classic tote will stay in style from year to year and has a triple snap closure. The beauty of this luxury beach bag is that it’s large enough to work as both your carryon and beach tote.
- Large Woody Logo Strap Canvas Tote CHLOÉ. Keep an eye on the Nordstrom sale post, if this goes in their anniversary sale (I doubt it will) I’ll be sure to add it there. It also comes in all white if you prefer a monochromatic chic white look.
- Summer Simple Tote Tan w/ Ciao would be so cute for an Italian escape and is under $50.
- The Row Ruth white leather tote bag is $6200 and may not technically be a beach bag but hear me out. If you’ve read my blog for a while you’ll know I’m all about cost per wear and this is one bag that will mult-task for you. Use it as a everyday bag, work bag, Mom bag, travel bag, resort bag or designer beach bag! It also doesn’t have logos or a name anywhere making it a great quiet luxury option which is often also a safer option. It’s definitely more of a splurge and investment piece but it’s such a classic style and more of an everyday bag, not just a beach bag that it’ll get so much use. This tote also comes in black.
- For the logo free, chic girls, AllSaints Straw Tote is one of the most fashion forward styles this season and it’s under $160.
- Valentino Garavani woven raffia summer tote with the iconic roman studs leather shoulder strap and gold Vlogo plaque is one of the more elegant designer tote bags. It’s a classic, neutral style that’s a little more glam than most. It also goes perfectly with their Roman Stud sandals if you like a coordinated look.
- Dior Book Tote is a classic designer beach tote and everyday tote bag. It comes in different sizes, prints and colors including black for a chic look. It can also be personalized. If you don’t want to splurge on a brand new one, you can often pick them up pre-loved or on Fashionphile.
- Jacquemus raffia tote Le Bambola $1450 is a chic statement, resort wear and beach bag. Jacquemus bags have come a long way since their famous minis. If you love this one get it now as it’s brand new and sure to sell out fast.
- The Saint Laurent Icare maxi raffia shoulder bag is such a statement piece and if you like your logos this YSL bag is for you! Yes there’s a raffia theme here, but what says beach bag more?! This is a more beachy style to the Saint Laurent Rive Gauche designer beach bag that’s been taking the spotlight for the last few years. This fresh, neutral designer tote bag also comes in black if you prefer a more practical color Summer tote bag that works both on and off of the beach. Talking of practical, it measures a roomy Depth: 8cm / 3.1in X Height: 36cm / 14.2in X Width: 38cm / 15in.
- If you prefer oversized totes this women’s Large Straw Bags Beach Tote Bag is a great budget find. This handwoven hobo bag is the most affordable Summer beach bag at $26.99. I love the red, white and blue scarf detailing on this bag, it’d be great for completing a July 4th outfit. It’s made of 100% natural hand-woven seagrass with hand-woven knit elements and craftsmanship.
- Staud is coming up trumps with their designer beach bags for 2025. Their Large Raffia Moon bag is the perfect vacation tote. Made from hand-woven natural raffia with a relaxed silhouette, it’s another beautiful luxury beach bag that will elevate all of your resort wear. Although, it looks just as good at long Summer lunches as it does poolside or on the beach.
- Poolside Essaouira straw tote. This is the perfect size summer tote bag and doubles up as your personal item to carry on the plane as it zips shut. I always look for bags with top zips as there’s less chance of something falling out and it also helps prevent pick pocketing. This style has a removable lining that snaps in and out to make it easy to clean and get rid of sand.
18. If you’re looking for a fun summer tote bag for 2025 this Beach to Bar handbag is one of the more affordable tote bags. It’s perfect for a girls trip or just for fun. It also has a top magnetic closure to make it more secure.
19. Sensi studio might not be a designer beach bag but this fun, glam, feather trimmed bag is a head turner that’s so unique but the classic neutral color keeps it beach appropriate.
20. Jacquemus is still a trending designer brand and their Le Raphia ‘Le Panier Soli’ beach tote is a super popular style. This brand was once known for it’s mini bags but this beach bag got a size overhaul and is now large enough to actually be practical! It’s also a classic style that’s less likely to date than some others.
21. This medium sized summer tote by Florabella has the coolest intertwined crackle leather shoulder strap and comes in such a summery beige color. It’s one of Revolves best selling beach bags for 2025 and is under $200!
22. This raffia straw Prada tote designer beach bag is a classic. It’s a logo-embroidered raffia tote bag you’ll get use out of year after year. Prada has one of the best collections of woven tote bags for 2025 in lots of different colors.
23. Cult Gaia large designer beach bag is the ultimate summer tote bag and checks off 2 major summer bag trends: natural materials and gold accents. Oversized bags are in for 2025 and this is definitely spacious. The gold accents and shape make it a little different and elevate this summer tote.
My personal favorite
24. The Chanel Deauville tote bag was at the top of my wishlist and I finally found it on sale on Fashionphile. It’s one of those iconic and timeless designer beach bags I know I’ll be able to use year after year both on vacation and as a Summer tote bag.
I also bought a bag organizer for it to hold it’s shape and to protect it a little in case of any spills or suntan lotion leaks.
25. Amazon has lots of more affordable styles if you don’t want to splurge on a designer beach bag.
What’s gone from the 2025 best beach bags 2025 edit
Both the Fendi Sunshine Shopper and the Saint Laurent Rive Gauche Tote which were the IT bags for a few summers are gone from this years edit. They were both are equally beautiful. The Fendi is more luxe in leather, with it’s debossed logo, tortoiseshell effect handles and gold-tone hardware. It also has an adjustable detachable shoulder strap. Whereas the Saint Laurent is more laid back, casual. However, I feel like we’re seeing less of them and they’re kind of played out at this point.
I’m not saying not to use them if you have them, they’re great bags. I’m just saying if you’re shopping for something, there are lots of fresh options worth checking out instead.
