Womens Hats for the Welsh Coast
Sun protection that does not look like sun protection
When the sun does come out in Porthcawl it tends to mean business, especially reflecting off the water at Rest Bay. Wide-brim sun hats and bucket hats do the actual job of shading your face, ears and the back of your neck, which your dermatologist will thank you for later. Packable straw styles are good for the Gower or a week in Pembrokeshire, while a baseball cap is the obvious shout for dog walks, surf sessions and school runs.
Winter hats and beanies
The other six months of the year, a beanie is honestly one of the most-used things in your wardrobe. We stock slouchy, fitted, chunky rib and fleece-lined options, plus a handful of trucker caps and wool fedoras for going out. Brands wise, Billabong and Rip Curl cover the surf side, Rhythm add a softer lifestyle edge, and Patagonia bring recycled and organic materials if that matters to you.
Style it up with the rest of the range: sunglasses | womens wetsuits | beanies | gifts for her | sale.
Try before you commit, Porthcawl
Hats are a mirror job. Sizing, brim width and how it sits with your hair all matter, and a photo online never quite tells the truth. Come down to the shop, five minutes from Rest Bay, and have a play with a few.
