Your beach photos look terrible because you didn't use the correct preset on lightroom. Avoid making the same mistake again by using any of the ocean and beach inspired preset packs for lightroom featured on this list.
These beach presets for lightroom will help improve the tones and colors of your beach/ocean photos. They often have a relaxed and warm look and can be used to correct details and set a specific look with just a few clicks. By using these presets, you can get your shots ready for Instagram and other social media platforms by improving the saturation, white balance, brightness and structure of your images. Another unspoken benefit of using these beach presets is that you can use them to easily create your own theme or style throughout your photos. If you apply the same preset with little adjustment to a variety of photos, they'll all look relatively similar, like they've been shot at the same place with the same camera by the same photographer. This is great for creating a mood board, Instagram profile square and just building your own theme in general.
These presets are known for their ability to create a natural and inviting atmosphere, bringing out the blue hues of the water and the warmth of the sand and enhance the overall aesthetic of the image.

Features: Warmer tone, with saturation for hints of green

This is one of our personal favorites. The Malibu Blue Lightroom Preset adds a cool blue tone to images to create bold and vibrant look. It only comes with one preset which is the only downside. Other than that, this preset works great for almost every beach photo.
Best for: Photos consisting of dark blue to light purple shades. It works best on photos of an evening sky or a blue ocean.
Features: Blue accentuation and slight hue shift
The Millennial Pink Lightroom Preset adds a light-blush tone with warm gold radiance to images, creating a soft and subtle vintage vibe. It is perfect for those who love muted colors.
Best for: Once again, we found that this preset works best for photos consisting of dark blue to light purple shades. But instead of increasing the blue tones like the previous preset did, this one helps to bring out the pink parts of your shot.
Features: Pink accentuation with plenty of desirable shadow.
