Looking for the best beach towel in 2021? Your search is over, Warm weather is on the horizon, and if you’re planning on taking a socially distanced trip to the beach this summer, you’re going to need a sizable beach towel to keep you dry. And while we’ve written before about everything you need for a good day in the sun, including the best beach chairs, beach umbrellas, and beach bags here, we’ve rounded up the best beach towels as praised by the most enthusiastic reviewers on Amazon.
Best-rated beach towel
Utopia Towels Extra Large Bath Towels
Over 10,000 purchasers give this towel a five-star review, highlighting specific features that make it great for the beach:
- It’s huge and soft.
- It effectively absorbs water.
- It’s a really “good deal.”
According to one satisfied owner, “If you want a lighter weight quick-drying towel that is extra extra large with bright colors and a very inexpensive price, this is the towel for you.” It’s technically listed as a “bath towel,” and while most reviewers say it’s excellent for that purpose, many also enthusiastically recommend it as a beach towel. “The oversize aspect of it makes it a great beach towel,” writes one reviewer. Another adds, “I’ve purchased a number of these (in red, black and white) and love them. They are quite thick and soft, and make perfect beach towels. They have held up well after numerous wash cycles.” As one enthusiastic reviewer puts it: “Absolutely the yummiest towels that I have ever owned, in my entire adulthood and I am 65 years old.”

Best-rated (less expensive) beach towel
AmazonBasics Cabana Stripe Beach Towel
At just over $10 per towel, this inexpensive striped set is “perfect for the pool or beach. The size is great. The fabric is soft. They aren’t too thin or too thick,” writes one customer. Many other reviewers say these AmazonBasics towels are durable, including one whose daughter has been using them four days a week for swim practice. After six months of heavy use, “They are soft and comfortable and have really held up with all the use she’s gotten out of them. We don’t need more but will definitely come back here to purchase more when we do. Great price.” Another five-star reviewer got this set as his-and-hers towels for a beach vacation and said they were “perfect. We’re both pretty tall people (6’2”, 5’11”) and they worked great. Held up to multiple washes, actually dried us off, and lasted all summer even after vacation.”

Best plush beach towel
Colwood Plush Bamboo Cotton Beach Towel
Dozens of reviewers describe this oversized bamboo-cotton towel as plush and plenty big. “One of the largest oversized towels [I’ve found] and perfect for my 6’1” husband who loved this item when he received it as a gift,” one reviewer writes. The material is “soft and absorbent.” The thickness is “perfect,” unlike other brands they’ve tried. Another reviewer goes so far as to call it the “best beach towel” they’ve ever owned. “They are well made, really big and soft! The kind you would expect at a 5-star resort.” They are relatively expensive, per towel, but they’re “worth the money,” writes one reviewer. “I was expecting high quality, and I am not a bit disappointed. They are long enough and very thick. Just what I wanted for the pool and the beach.” In short, “Perfect!”

Best lightweight beach towel
Nature Is Gift Natural Turkish Cotton Towel
These hammam-style Turkish towels are made from lightweight, easy-to-pack cotton, and many appreciate that they fold down smaller than more traditional, terry-cloth beach towels. One reviewer, who purchased three of these for a trip to Hawaii, says, “they were portable (waaay easier than toting 3 beach towels), quick drying, and worked well. I even used it on the plane as a light blanket perfect!” The lighter fabric also means they’re great to take on the go. According to one reviewer, “We made the switch to Turkish towels and love how quickly they dry, how we never have mildew smells, and how long and wide they are. They make a nice beach spread, dry quickly in the hotel, and are compact.” Another customer likes that they don’t “collect sand the same way my other towels do, so I get to leave the beach at the beach!! I can also wear this as a cover up when needed! Worth the money.”

Best extra-large beach towel
Wise Owl Extra-Large Beach Towel (7’ x 4’)
This lightweight beach towel is 84 inches long and 36 inches wide, ideal for more significant adults (or several small children). “I got this for a friend’s father who is a very tall and very large person. This beach towel is PERFECT,” says one reviewer. He found it “very absorbent, soft and comfortable,” so much so that he even “asked if he could take it with him when he returned home.” When used as a beach blanket, it can easily fit two children, “with plenty of space to play. It soaks up water very well and looks good too,” says a parent. Despite its extra-large size, others were also impressed with just how compact it is when folded. “This towel is all business: It practically pulls the water right off you in a minute, and then dries in virtually no time at all, especially when outside in the sun,” one such reviewer writes. “I also like that it folds/rolls up to the size of a newspaper and has an elastic strap sown on to secure it at that size for packing or walking to the beach.”
