11 Beach Bags So Pretty You're Scared Someone Will Steal It! Under INR 3000

The crochet wave is still high and we are going to ride it. Crochet bags are super Pinterest-y and boho chic, making them top all beach season styles. As beachy as these are, they are not completely beach-proof as they are made out of thread, but you can easily clean them with a wash. 

First up we have this elegant bag from Itihasikala that was handcrafted by artisans of Ballbarah and is made of cotton yarn. This bag has a blue and white checkered pattern with a single handle, like a bucket bag. It is small and handy ideal for those times when you don't have much to carry and are just heading to the beach for a small walk or a date. 

Next, we have this handmade fishnet crochet bag from Samoolam, a women-led initiative that promotes handicrafts by rural women and helps them grow economically and socially. This bag is available in various colours on their site, such as blue and coral but we like this sage green the most which has a bird tassel keychain. It will give you a very boho aesthetic and has plenty of storage so that you can carry all your unwinding necessities to the beach. 

Lastly, this super cute sunflower crochet bag is sure to make your Pinterest board come to life. It uses a woollen thread and is formed of a granny square pattern. It is also customizable, but we like it as it is! It is the ideal go-to for not just beaches but any outfit as an aesthetic tote-bag companion.

Wicker bags are woven out of bamboo sticks, giving them a sturdy structure. They are waterproof and sandproof, making them perfect for beach picnics. These bags can carry all your essentials and more for those who like to pack everything for 'just-in-case' situations. 

We like the city wicker bag from KadamHaat as it is sustainable and handmade from natural materials in Kashmir. The basket-style bag comes with a zipper closure and a chain for easy carrying. There are three more colors available in the same style from which we're sure you'll find your perfect pick. 

Another option is the box bag from Pinecone India, with a Macramé cover in a gorgeous sage color. The box bag is handcrafted by women artisans in Manipur using Kauna material and cotton yarns for the Macramé detailing. The macrame closure is lockable and the large size is perfect for carrying all you want to the beach. 

Lastly, the Kashmiri wicker basket bag is a multipurpose accessory known locally as "Keani Keam." These wicker baskets are meticulously crafted by artisans using willow trees in Kashmir, featuring a zipper closure and an elegant and rich minimal style.

If you don't want to carry a whole picnic with you, we suggest just getting a cute small bag that packs a punch with all your summer essentials. Don't judge these by their compact size as they can carry your MILK essentials (money, ID, lipstick, and keys), and more!

This nano natural sling is compact, classy and chic. Although it may seem a bit pricey for its small size, the quality of the materials ensures that it will last a long time. The style and structure of this sling are truly unique and hard to find elsewhere. It is woven out of rattan and vegan leather and features a beaded strap. Additionally, it is 100% handmade.

The phone sling from House of Ganges is made out of jute and has a simple leather string, making it easy to carry over the shoulder. Its elegance lies in its simplicity.  We appreciate the woven pattern of jute with a leather border, giving it a simple yet textured and elegant look. There are three more colour options available, all made out of jute. You can rest assured of its quality as it comes with a 6-month warranty.

Finally, we have this vibrant and playful jute handbag that resembles the sun in its design. It is made of sturdy rope jute, has a round shape, and comes in bright orange and yellow colours. The bag is woven in a quirky style that is sure to go with all your sunny beachwear or swimwear.

Bucket bags are a category of bags that are super spacious with a circular bottom that tapers upwards. We spotted two unique ones. The first one is from Ecoright, made entirely from sustainable and recycled materials. It can be used as a backpack, handbag, or shoulder bag as it is convertible. It comes with a blue wave-like pattern finish with cotton material, making it perfect for carrying a lot of items to the beach.

The second option is this Modern Myth bag, which is very bougie with its faux leather and gold handles. The cork finish with scarf tie detailing gives it a beachy vibe. It is also handmade by artisans using sustainable materials and has various pockets for storage inside.
