Sunglasses. If nothing else, they make you harder to recognise.

I do see some immaculately made up people with great hair on the beach / pool and just think that’s not feasible !
so
Spray sun protection conditioner in hair and scrape into a messy bun as if intended.
wear the biggest nicest sunglasses you can afford
look for nice flowing , floaty beach coverups that you can waft about in
have a good big straw bag for all the stuff
get some beachy summery jewellery that is not expensive , beaded etc
Basically make it look like you are artfully natural !!
