<p>People / Marcus Millan</p> — People / Marcus Millan

As someone who lives in a city with four very distinct seasons, I never put much thought into buying beach towels. That all changed when I grabbed a few of these microfiber beach towels before a family vacation a few weeks ago.

A far cry from the thin, faded ones you probably grew up with, these microfiber towels are soft, durable, and most importantly, super absorbent. Plus, it felt like they dried almost instantly in the Florida sun. And at less than $10 each, I was able to stock up on some for the whole family — guilt-free.

Whether you’re headed to the ocean soon or plan on lounging poolside all season, a good towel is crucial (or so I’ve learned). I scoured the best pool and beach towels across Amazon to find highly rated picks that are worthy of your beach bag. Keep scrolling to check out these top finds, with prices just under $5 apiece.

Turkish towels are known for being absorbent, lightweight, and durable. Plus, they can go well beyond the beach or pool.

“They are just the right thickness for taking to the beach because they are thick enough to dry off [and] thin enough to dry out quickly in the sun,” wrote one reviewer. Plus, they said the towels “fluff up beautifully after the first laundering.”
