Barbie Doll Beach blast Ken

Catch the waves and the fun with Beach Blast™ Ken® (1989) — a vibrant, sun-loving doll from Mattel’s energetic late-80s Beach Blast™ series. This version of Ken brings all the color, charm, and cool attitude of the California coast straight into your collection.

Ken is dressed for a perfect beach day in bold neon swim trunks or a printed tank top and shorts combo, often featuring geometric or tropical patterns in bright pinks, blues, yellows, and greens — signature 80s colors. He usually comes with beach-ready accessories like a towel, sunglasses, and even a boombox or water bottle.

With his tanned skin, rooted or molded blonde hair (depending on the version), and a confident smile, Beach Blast Ken® captures that laid-back surfer vibe with a touch of fashion flair. His athletic build and relaxed pose make him a standout among Barbie’s many beach companions.

A nostalgic favorite, especially when paired with Beach Blast Barbie®, Teresa®, Miko®, and Christie®, this Ken is a must-have for fans of vintage summer dolls and 1980s Barbie history.
