beach vendor

Seaside merchandise hawker

A beach vendor is someone who walks along beaches selling goods to sunbathers and tourists—typically snacks, drinks, sunglasses, towels, or souvenirs.

The term evokes vacation destinations where beach vendors hawking cold beer and fresh fruit are part of the seaside atmosphere.

In some contexts, beach vendors operate informally or without permits.
