Summer Share Isla Beach House Opens | Daily Candy Boston

They say there’s a light at the end of every tunnel. But we’re more concerned with the corollary: Is there a bright spot in every summer dominated by gloomy days? Step into the light at Isla Beach House. Owned by Sigrid Olsen and her husband, the seasonal shop has a salty, shanty vibe and tons of low-key summer necessities (for rain or shine). Tucked between art galleries and a few restos, the teeny red hut (only 400 square feet) has Ragdoll tees, raffia totes, Green Dragon knits, hurricane lamps, Dupatta shawls, and candy-colored jewelry. The little bungalow also stocks Olsen’s hand-painted ceramics and watercolor paintings. Proving that every grey summer has a silver lining.

ISLA beach house is such a divine little oasis on Rocky Neck, Gloucester. We dropped in by boat for a drink at MADfish Grille and there it was....grabbed a great sarong and a few tanks.....cute dresses, gotta go back!
