I’ve always loved how the holidays feel by the water. There’s something about mixing twinkling lights with the soft, breezy charm of the coast that instantly puts me in a good mood.
When I decorate for Christmas, I like to bring that same relaxed, beachy energy indoors. Seashell ornaments, starfish toppers, and driftwood details make the season feel fresh and unexpected.
If coastal vibes make your heart happy too, you’re going to love these ideas. They’re calm, charming, and just a little salty in the best way.
Frosted Coastal Charm
This Christmas tree captures that dreamy coastal look with frosted branches, glowing fairy lights, and ornaments shaped like sand dollars and coral. The soft blue curtains and weathered side table add to the cozy seaside vibe, giving the space a fresh, beachy twist on a winter classic.
I absolutely love how calm and soothing this setup feels. The mix of snow-dusted pine and seaside details makes me feel like I’m spending Christmas morning by the ocean, wrapped in a blanket, listening to waves crash outside. It’s effortlessly coastal without trying too hard.
Minimalist Blue Lagoon Look
This bright and airy living room pairs a minimalist white tree with shimmering turquoise ornaments that pop against natural wicker furniture. The woven textures, soft cushions, and coastal hues make the whole space feel relaxed and breezy, like a seaside retreat in December.
What I adore most is how simple yet stunning it looks. The pops of blue make me think of sea glass, and the clean lines keep it feeling modern. It’s proof that coastal Christmas style can be laid-back and elegant at the same time.
Golden Hour Glow by the Palm Trees
There’s something magical about this scene. A softly lit Christmas tree stands by a big window overlooking swaying palm leaves. Warm golden sunlight spills into the room, giving the space that cozy, end-of-day glow that feels both tropical and festive.
This one makes me smile because it reminds me of Christmas spent somewhere warm and sunny. The sunlight, the sparkle of the ornaments, and the touch of greenery outside—it’s everything I love about blending beach life with holiday magic.
Natural Burlap and Seashell Style
This simple green Christmas tree keeps things natural with burlap ribbons, white shells, and twine ornaments. The earthy tones and rustic textures balance beautifully with the soft gray couch and worn wood floors, creating that perfectly imperfect coastal cottage look.
I find this design so refreshingly real. It’s the kind of tree that feels homemade but still stylish. The seashell touches are subtle, and the burlap gives it such a cozy, organic feel—I could honestly leave this up all winter.
Nautical Blue and White Holiday Look
This tree brings the seaside indoors with blue-and-white ornaments shaped like sailboats, anchors, and starfish. Surrounded by striped furniture and coral-patterned pillows, the whole room feels like a charming coastal cabin ready for Christmas.
I love how playful yet polished this feels. The nautical theme doesn’t overwhelm—it enhances. It’s cheerful, festive, and full of character, the kind of setup that would make guests instantly feel at home.
Driftwood Tree with Sea Glass Ornaments
This creative driftwood tree is a coastal masterpiece. Pale, weathered branches form a sculptural tree adorned with delicate sea glass, shells, and a starfish topper. It’s the perfect mix of rustic and ocean-inspired, sitting gracefully in front of a sunlit window.
I can’t get enough of how unique this is. It feels like a little art installation that celebrates both Christmas and the coast. The sea glass ornaments catch the light in such a pretty way—it’s relaxed coastal elegance at its best.
Warm and Airy Seaside Living Room Tree
This sunlit living room feels like a warm December afternoon by the shore. The tall Christmas tree stands proudly in a woven basket base, dressed in starfish, coral ornaments, and soft neutral ribbons. The rattan furniture, woven rugs, and coastal decor make the whole space glow.
There’s something about this setup that feels so inviting. It’s cozy but still fresh and light, like a gentle ocean breeze mixed with holiday joy. If I could spend Christmas anywhere, it would be right here with a cup of cocoa and sand between my toes.

The whole room feels calm, elegant, and kissed by seaside sunshine.
What makes this setup so dreamy to me is how peaceful it feels. The way the sunlight dances across the floor and reflects off the tree is pure magic. It’s the kind of space where you’d want to sip coffee and watch the ocean turn gold at sunset.
Seafoam Shell Delight
A minty seafoam Christmas tree steals the spotlight in this bright, beachy corner. Coral-pink seashell ornaments and delicate garlands of pearls give it a fun yet sophisticated coastal vibe. Even the driftwood log and soft sandy floor echo the ocean’s natural beauty.
I think this one feels like a piece of summer dressed up for Christmas. The soft seafoam color is unexpected but so perfect for a coastal theme. It’s playful, cheerful, and just makes me smile every time I look at it.

I adore the atmosphere here—it feels like a quiet winter afternoon by the coast. The rain on the windows, the cozy throw blanket, and the gentle sparkle of the lights make it feel like the perfect day to unwind.
Driftwood Simplicity
This driftwood Christmas tree proves that less really can be more. Weathered wood pieces stack together in a natural, sculptural shape, adorned with just a few silver ornaments. The distressed blue wall behind it completes the breezy, coastal look.
I love the raw beauty of this one. It’s simple and full of character, like something you’d find washed ashore after a storm. It feels effortlessly coastal, rustic, and perfectly imperfect in the best way.
