Frequently Asked Questions about Boating Hats & Sailing Hats – Sun Protection for Life on the Water

What are the best hats for sailing?

The best sailing hats offer sun protection, a secure fit, and lightweight comfort. Wide brim hats, chin cord hats, visors, and breathable caps are popular choices for windy days on the water.

What kind of hat should I wear boating?

For boating, choose a hat that shades your face and neck, and stays secure in the wind. They must have a UPF 50+ certification to block UV rays. Chin straps, neck capes, water repelling fabric, floatable brims, caps with wide bills are practical options.

Are wide brim hats good for boating?

Yes. Wide brim hats provide better coverage for the face, ears, and neck, making them a smart choice for long days on a boat, dock, marina, or beach. Dark underbrim helps reducing glare.

Should boating hats have a chin cord?

A chin cord or adjustable fit is helpful when boating or sailing because wind can easily lift a loose hat. Secure-fit features help keep your hat in place. Hats with a floatable feature gives you the opportunity to get your hat out of the water.

Are packable hats good for sailing trips and cruises?

Yes. Packable hats are ideal for sailing vacations, cruises, and travel because they fit easily into luggage or beach bags while still offering sun coverage when needed.
