There is something so comforting and nostalgic about a summer day spent on the coast. The sounds, the smells, the food, the activities, and the outfits are all so refreshing and peaceful, once can't help but feel at ease. If this is music to your ears, then come along on a relaxing trip on a beautiful sailboat along the coast. 

Hoist the sails as we embark on a coastal girl summer with loads of inspiration and product recommendations for you to live out the sailing lifestyle. With bedding that emits the coastal charm, outfits perfect for the on-board life, and little pieces of insight that speak to the go where the tide takes you mentality, this blog has everything a coastal girl needs to live her sailing dreams. 

A summer day spent on a sailboat can only be described as serene. The feeling of the sea breeze against your face, the perfect sailing outfit, dips in the refreshing water to cool off, and naps under the summer sun will make any girl want to live this coastal life forever. For a day spent sailing, one does need to come prepared with all of the necessities. Plenty of water to stay hydrated, lemonade or other refreshing beverages, snacks to keep everyone on board satiated, and towels for drying off after diving into the sea for a nice cool down.

What to wear why sailing? To be best prepared for the activities that lay ahead, plan to wear something comfortable and cooling, with the option to add layers when the wind picks up. A linen button up that can be taken off, a broad hat to protect from the sun's harsh rays, a pair of loose and comfortable short ton walk around the boat with, and a bathing suit to dive into the water. You might also bring a dress to change into for a sunset photos. 

After an entire day spent on the beach, playing games, chasing waves, and short naps on the sand, coming home for an after-beach day shower is one of the best feelings in the world. (if you know you know) After washing up, I spray my damp hair with a sea salt spray to bring out the beach waves, throw on my favourite summer evening dress, a touch of mascara, and I'm ready for part three of my day on the coast. 

After freshening up and putting on an elegant summer sun dress, it is time for a coastal themed dinner with drinks. Either by enjoying the meal at home with family, or going out to a local seafood restaurant, a long day on the coast calls for a seafood special and tropical drink. After a wonderful dinner with great company, a nice scoop of ice cream ends the meal on a sweet and refreshing note.

After a long day by the sea, a wonderful dinner, and the feeling that comes from swimming in the salty water, and enjoying the coastal sunshine, it is only proper to end on a proper and breathtaking beach sunset. Enjoying the sunset view from the boat is a spectacular experience. After the sun has sunken below the horizon it is time to change into cool and comfy pyjamas and enjoy a light-hearted round of cards or a boardgame at the table. As the hour slips by and the yawns begin to creep in, I retire to my cozy bed, where I can still hear the sound of the waves crashing against the shore. Sweet dreams fill the night hours, until the morning brings another wonderful day staying on the coast.
