Beach towels come in a wide variety of styles and sizes. To save time, you may be tempted to buy the first one you see in a design you like. However, you need to bear in mind that choosing well will have a big impact on your comfort and your enjoyment of excursions, whether you’re heading out to the beach, going to an indoor pool, or just lazing by an outdoor pool.

Size

You need a beach towel that will cover your body. At the same time, it mustn’t be so long that it trails along the ground when it’s wrapped around you. Measure the part of your body that will be covered in your towel and compare it to the width of beach towels you are considering.

Be sure to also choose one that is long enough for you to lie on so that it fits the length of your body!

Absorbency

Beach towels are useless if they are incapable of absorbing water. You need to know that your towel is sufficient for drying you off and that it will dry quickly afterward. The best materials for this are cotton and terrycloth blends.

Weight

Perfect beach towels are thick enough to be soft against your skin but not so heavy that they become annoying to pack for your trip. An ideal weight is around 13 ounces.

Cost

Beach towels are not an item to buy cheap. If you pay too little, you’ll find that your towel wears out after just a few uses. On the flipside, there’s no need to break the bank — $20 to $25 tends to give you a good-quality towel.

Design

Of course, design is important. Your beach towel should reflect your style and personality. With so many designs available, you have the chance to find something that is uniquely you.

To make the right decision, you need to know the specs (specifics) of the beach towels you’re considering
