Changing Ponchos

Poncho towels for the beach and water sports

Poncho towels are one of the most practical types of beach towels, as they combine the function of a classic towel and a poncho in one piece. They are designed for anyone who spends a lot of time in or around the water and wants easy changing, quick drying, and protection from wind and body cooling.

If you are looking for a beach poncho that offers comfort, privacy and warmth after swimming or SUP, poncho towels are an excellent choice. Thanks to their design, you simply pull them over your head, without awkwardly wrapping yourself in a regular towel.

What are poncho towels and why are they better than a classic towel?

A poncho towel is a towel with a head opening, often with a hood, that stays on your body even in windy conditions. While classic towels slip off or need to be held in place, poncho towels allow you to be at the same time:

dry,
warm,
covered while changing,
free to move.

That is why poncho towels are especially popular among SUP paddlers, surfers, swimmers and anyone who changes clothes outdoors.

Poncho for the beach, SUP and active lifestyle

A beach poncho is ideal for use after:

swimming and bathing,
SUP and surfing,
kitesurfing and other water sports,
a day at the beach or by the lake.

After getting out of the water, a poncho towel quickly absorbs moisture while protecting you from wind and sun. It helps prevent unpleasant body cooling, which often occurs after spending extended time in the water.

Women’s poncho and unisex models

In the collection, you will find women’s ponchos and unisex poncho towels designed to fit different body shapes and heights. The cut is wide and long enough to allow comfortable wear and changing, regardless of body shape.

A women’s poncho combines practicality and aesthetics, as appearance matters alongside functionality, especially at the beach or while traveling.

Materials of poncho towels and their use

Poncho towels are made from different materials, depending on their intended use:

Cotton poncho towels are highly absorbent, soft and pleasant to the touch. They provide excellent warmth and are suitable for longer stays at the beach or in cooler weather.

Quick dry poncho towels are lighter, fast-drying and pack down very small. They are ideal for travel, camping and situations where low weight and compact size matter.

Microfiber towels are extremely compact and lightweight, yet still large enough for beach use. They dry quickly and are a popular choice among active users and adventurers.

Poncho towels for children and families

Poncho towels are also an excellent choice for children and babies. A kids’ poncho allows quick drying, easy changing and helps maintain warmth, which is especially important for younger children who cool down more quickly.

Thanks to the hood and soft material, a poncho towel for children is an essential item for a family day at the beach or by the water.

Why choose a poncho towel?

Poncho towels are not just a fashion accessory, but a functional solution for anyone who swims frequently or participates in water sports. They combine:

a beach towel,
a changing poncho,
protection from wind and cold,
comfort and practicality in one product.

For this reason, poncho towels are one of the most sought-after and practical types of beach towels for SUP, beach days and active time by the water.
