Bathing ponchos are a huge hit for trips to and from the water at pools, beaches, or by the swimming pool - perfect for both kids and adults. They dry just as efficiently as a towel but make it much easier to stay warm. When worn over the body, they cover you from wind and weather.

Other Uses for a Bathing Poncho
A bathing poncho can also serve as a mobile changing room. As it covers most of the body and keeps your hands free, it allows you to change clothes efficiently without exposing any parts of the body you prefer to keep private.
Choosing a Bathing Poncho
When selecting a bathing poncho, there are typically 3 types to choose from:
- Microfiber: The most affordable type of poncho. Made from microfiber, it is extremely light and thin, making it easy to wear and pack without taking up much space. The microfiber material absorbs water, allowing you to wring it out and reuse the poncho.
- Cotton: A more comfortable and heavier material, it feels warm and soft, just like a typical towel. The downside is that it can become "watered in" after a few uses and will need to be hung out to dry. Provides optimal protection against the wind.
Waterproof
The waterproof poncho is the most expensive type, but it comes with several unique features: a water- and windproof exterior construction and soft microfiber-terry interior, providing optimal weather protection along with a comfortable feel. Typically equipped with several practical pockets both inside and out. Often used by triathletes, winter swimmers, and open water swimmers who frequently need to store gear going to and from the water.
