Materials for circular towels:

– Cotton. Cotton is great for a circular beach towel because of the absorbency. This will make it great for the use on pebble beach or harder uneven surfaces because the 100% cotton is thicker than polyester microfiber round towels, providing more padding when lying on them. If you have a lot of water to absorb and are planning to use your circular towel for a lot of drying off after beach and pool activity than getting a 100% cotton terrycloth towel is your best option. 

– Polyester/Microfiber. Circular towels can also be made of polyester, which isn’t as plush as cotton. However, it’s lighter and packs down smaller, more versatile. Yet the best thing about microfiber circle towels is that printing is so versatile. Because the fabric has less pile, it’s easy to print very detailed textures and images onto this fabric and you can find creative masterpieces printed on these circle towels.

A circular towel is a great and unique way to hit at the beach, use at the pool, decorate yourself or decorate your home. Take a look at the different options and find the perfect round towel for you!
