After you see this nautical door knocker inspiration post, one things for certain, you won’t need to search on Pinterest or Google images for the right coastal door knocker, because I already did that for you (unless you’re looking for ultra tacky door knockers). I first saw coastal door knockers at my favorite local getaway, Castle Hill Inn, in Newport RI. Their stunning cottages feature coastal colors and solid wood doors, with VERY noticeable door knockers. Each door has a different knocker, many of which are below. It’s tough to choose which one looks best, especially because you want to make sure they’re not too tacky!

blue crab door knocker – bright, but looks good on natural light wood
I love the brass / bronze crab door knocker on a red door

I think the left one is tacky, but the lobster door knocker looks awesome
