Why You’ve Been Folding Your Beach Towels Wrong This Whole Time (And the Game-Changing Way to Fix It)

Let’s be honest — beach towels are the rebels of the linen closet. They’re big, bulky, and never seem to stay neatly folded. You stack them, and two seconds later they’re a lopsided mess, tumbling over everything else.

But here’s the truth: You’ve probably been folding your beach towels wrong this whole time. And there’s a super simple way to fix it that will save space, keep things tidy, and make your beach bag look Pinterest-worthy.


🏖️ The Problem With Traditional Folding

Most people fold their beach towels in half, then in thirds, and call it a day. But here’s what that does:

  • Creates bulky stacks that fall over easily
  • Makes it harder to grab just one towel
  • Takes up more space than it should in your closet or beach bag
  • Leaves the edges exposed, looking messy

✅ The Right Way: The Roll-and-Tuck Method

This method isn’t just smart — it’s genius. It saves space, keeps your towels compact, and even makes packing for the beach a breeze.

Here’s how to do it:

  1. Lay your towel flat on a bed or table.
  2. Fold it in thirds lengthwise — creating one long strip.
  3. Roll it tightly from one end to the other.
  4. Tuck the end into the roll (like a burrito) to hold everything in place.

No slipping. No messy corners. Just a neat, clean roll that fits perfectly into your beach tote, linen shelf, or drawer.
