Every beach party (especially one for girl's or my son whose favorite color in hot pink) needs some pink beach theme party supplies like flamingos. OT has the perfect beach themed pool decor: flamingo straws, inflatable flamingo cup holders for the pool, flamingo lights, flamingo pinwheels, and flamingos for the yard!

Pool Party Ideas for Teens and Tweens
For your beach party theme, you will need a pool. If you don't already have one, get an inflatable pool. Once you have a pool, (or three) you'll need to get beach theme pool party decorations and games. We like to purchase tons of inflatable beach balls and cover the pool with them. They make great party favors to take home, and the guests will enjoy playing with them throwing them at each other's heads. As we see, perfectly designed pool floats serve as both entertainment and decoration for your pool party. You can have a wide variety of inflatables to choose from and with so many options available make sure to find the perfect inflatable to suit your needs. Inflatables are also very easy to set up and take down, so you can easily take them with you for other occasions. Best of all, they are very affordable, so you can get a lot of use out of them without breaking the bank.
These beach balls are a fun activity for kids of all ages. Grab some Glam Sharpie Markers and color your own beach ball! These would be fun for a Dory and Nemo theme party too! Another fun pool activity is to get a bunch of swim goggles and play underwater games for the pool.
Squirt gun painting is a fun pool party activity too. Be sure to get lots of squirt guns! Get the directions at Fireflies and Mudpies.
Decorate the serving table with fun beach themed party lights and use sand pails to serve the food and drinks. To match the flamingo beach party theme, get solid color tableware in pink and green.
