    Pillows Make the Beach Even Better

    We got tired of laying our heads on crumpled-up towels and set out to create the world’s comfiest beach pillow. Ballast is the comfy, portable pillow that stays put on windy beaches, attaches to chairs, and combines with cooling packs to keep you cool on hot, sunny days. Get ready for the best beach days of your life. 

    Built For The Beach

    The beach is among the most comfortable and relaxing places on earth, but it’s even better with a pillow. Ballast is the only pillow designed to weather the saltwater, sand, and coastal winds of our shorelines, allowing you to experience the best beach nap of your life. Ditch that rolled up towel or shirt, and treat your lovely head to the luxurious beach pillow it deserves.

    Compact & Portable

    We’re a family with twins, so we know exactly what it’s like lugging a cart full of heavy gear to the beach. That’s why the Ballast Pillow packs into its own compact carry bag, which weighs just 4 ounces and can fit in the palm of your hand.

    Stays Put on Windy Days

    Beaches are windy, and pillows are lightweight. That’s a great combo for flying kites, but chasing flying pillows isn’t nearly as fun. Ballast is the only soft, weather resistant pillow that will stay put, so only your worries will blow away.

    Makes Chairs Even Comfier

    The Ballast Pillow attaches to most beach chairs, pool loungers, and camping chairs, making them much comfier.

    Check out our Towel & Travel Bands, which will secure your pillow and towel to chairs of all sizes and shapes.

    Cool It Down

    Cool off on a hot summer day with our custom-designed cooling gel packs. Store on ice until it's nice and cold and then slip it into the Ballast Beach Pillow sleeve, which positions the cold pack along the base of the neck for maximum cooling relief. Sold in packages of two, so you can swap them out to stay cool all day.

    Visit the Cooling Gel Packs page to learn more.

    Wicks Water & Sheds Sand

    The Ballast Beach Pillow is covered in a soft, weather-resistant fabric that wicks away water, sheds sand, resists stains, and feels luxurious against your skin.

    Contoured for Peak Comfort

    While we’ve enjoyed designing all the special features that make the Ballast Pillow so unique, comfort is what matters most. The Ballast Pillow is spacious, soft, yet supportive, and contoured to cradle your neck like you’d expect from a spa pillow. We go to the beach to have fun and unwind – the Ballast Pillow helps put you in that vacation headspace where all your worries melt away.
