Beach pants are the easiest way to cover up in style between swims. They are light, breezy and just as useful on holiday as by the sea.
This guide explains the main styles, how to wear them and how to care for them. Explore the GUOCALI beachwear collection to see current options.
What Are Beach Pants?
These loose, lightweight trousers are made for warm weather. They sit over swimwear or work with a simple top.
Most are made from breathable fabric, crochet or sheer knits. They move easily and dry quickly.
Main Styles to Know
Sheer Wide-Leg Pants
Sheer wide-leg pants give light coverage and a flowing line. They look elegant over a swimsuit and suit resort settings.
Crochet and Open-Knit Pants
Open-knit pants add texture and a handmade feel. Wear them over a bikini for a relaxed, beachy look.
Lace-Pattern Pants
Patterned knit pants add detail without heavy fabric. They work well for beach walks and holiday evenings.
How to Style Beach Pants
- Beach day: wear them over a swimsuit with flat sandals and a straw hat.
- Brunch: add a crisp white shirt and simple jewelry.
- Evening: swap sandals for heels and add a light blazer or chic blouse.

- Colour: white and neutral shades mix with most swimwear.
Caring for Your Pair
Follow the care label. Rinse off salt and sunscreen after wearing. Hand wash delicate knits in cool water and dry them flat.
