10 Beach Themed Paint Colors

You don’t have to live on the coast to bring the beach to your home, you can simply turn your home into a permanent vacation by painting it like the beach. Try these colors created to form a beach-inspired paint pallet for your home. Here are 10 beach-themed paint colors for your consideration.

Breath of Fresh Air—Benjamin Moore

Not only is this color Benjamin Moore’s Color of the Year for 2014, but it’s also the best beachy blue we have found. The color is light and refreshing, like the effervescence of waves. It’s a bright enough hue to look blue without being so bright it overwhelms the room.

Turquoise Porcelain—Valspar

Not all beachy blues are light and airy. Choose this Turquoise Porcelain as an alternative to the barely-there-blues. It’s darker blue but with a lovely touch of green to it. It’s a good accent to a lighter color or as paint for a statement piece of furniture.

Magnolia Green – Magnolia Home by Joanna Gaines

Not many homeowners go green when they are thinking of a beach-inspired color scheme. The reality is that green is there, whether it’s the coastal grass or leaves of palms, you cannot miss the green. Grab this ‘classic go-to green’ to use as a lively pairing for your other natural colors.

Beach Glass—Benjamin Moore

If you have ever found beach glass, you’ll know the magic of it is that is never the same color twice. This color from Benjamin Moore has the same properties. Colors around it in the room or outside the windows will change the look of this color. For this reason, you must sample it in your home with all of the colors you intend to paint.

Hawthorne Yellow—Benjamin Moore

It’s not a beach without the sun being represented. Hawthorne Yellow is a rich color that will fit in well with the greens and blues we’ve already laid out for you. It’s buttery warm and pairs well with a cool blue or vibrant green. Our experts recommend putting it next to aqua and greige in a room.

Weekend—Magnolia Home by Joanna Gaines

Let’s get the ocean in this room! Weekend is a dark blue with hints of gray and green. This is a good replacement for where you would normally use dark gray or dark brown. If you have ever watched a cooling thunderstorm roll in on the Gulf Coast, you’ve seen this color in the sky. Add it to your room to add a bit of mystery and darkness.

Sand Pearl—Behr

It can be difficult to find a deep, rich beige to pull in the feeling of sand. Behr’s Sand Pearl is perfect for it. The saturated neutral is good opposite a deep dark blue or brown. Its undertones are workable with green, blue, or aqua.

Porpoise—Sherwin-Williams

In the vein of all-too-popular greige, bring porpoise into your room as an anchoring accent. It’s a darker version of the newest color on the block. It’s easy to work with and makes a great accent for textiles and architectural details.

Skipping Stone—Benjamin Moore

There is nothing trickier in home design than using a tan-gray in a beach room. This subtle color works well with blues and cream. It’s a wooden piece of driftwood that will create a coastal retreat in your room.

Gossamer Sky—Valspar

This color brings blue-green into this century as a viable color for your room. It’s a delicate color that makes for a fun and relaxed room. It’s easily used on a wall, as the main color, or in accessories. Don’t be afraid to pair it with vivid colors, like fish!
