The 13 best beach towels for summer 2023

You have everything you need, including that new swimsuit, comfortable beach chair and heavy-duty sand wagon. Except, you’re missing one thing: a perfectly practical (and stylish) beach towel.

The thing is, towels themselves aren’t difficult to come across. You could just use a bath towel and call it a day. However, if you’d rather have a towel that’s long enough for you to lay on, comfortable enough to place on the ground and trendy enough to make a statement, then you’re going to want to opt for an authentic beach towel.

The best beach towel will provide not only comfort, but absorbency too. You don’t want to end up with a damp towel all day after just one dip in the water. You’ll also want to consider length and as that will determine whether or not your feet will hang off the edges.
