Eco-friendly ocean gifts

Ocean lovers often care about keeping beaches clean. Reef-safe sunscreen, a reusable water bottle, a beach clean-up kit or a donation to a marine conservation charity all make thoughtful gifts. A keepsake you reuse every year, rather than single-use packaging, also fits that mindset.

Wrapping it the coastal way

Use brown paper with twine, tuck in a sprig of eucalyptus or a small shell, and add a hand-written tag. With the advent calendar, you can also add a free gift message at checkout and send it straight to them.
