An adult hooded towel is a wearable towel with a built-in hood that slips over your head like a poncho. It lets you dry off, stay warm and change out of wet swimmers without holding a towel in place. Our hooded towels for adults are designed for Australian beaches, surf breaks, pools and gyms, in colours you'll be happy to wear from the sand to the café.

Why Adults Love a Towel Hoodie

A towel hoodie solves the classic beach problem: getting changed without an audience. The roomy poncho cut gives you space to move your arms inside, so you can swap swimmers for dry clothes anywhere. The hood keeps wind off wet hair, and the towel fabric dries you as you change. No more juggling a flat towel or asking a friend to hold it up.

Hooded Beach Towels

A hooded beach towel goes wherever a regular towel goes, and does more. Wear it after a swim to warm up when the sea breeze picks up, use it as a cover-up for the walk back to the car, then throw it in your beach bag. Our Quick-Dry Microfibre Towel Hoodie is the easiest upgrade to your beach kit.

Hooded Surf Towels, Surf Ponchos and Changing Robes

Surfers were among the first to swap flat towels for a surf poncho. A hooded surf towel lets you peel off a wetsuit discreetly in the car park, warm up after an early session and keep sand off your clothes. Try the Two-Tone Surf Poncho Towel, the Zip-Up Hooded Changing Robe if you prefer a front zip, or the Surf Changing Robe for full-length coverage.

For Swimming, the Pool and the Gym

Ocean swimmers, pool regulars and gym-goers use a hooded swim towel to dry off and change quickly between sessions. For training, our Cooling Mesh Hooded Towel is a light, breathable hooded gym towel that packs small.

Hooded Towels for Men and Women

Our adult hooded towels have a relaxed, unisex fit that works for men and women. The poncho shape isn't tailored, so it suits different body types and leaves plenty of room to change underneath.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best hooded towel for adults?
The best hooded towel for adults falls to around the knee and has a roomy fit so you can change underneath. For the widest cut, choose our Towel Hoodie; for a jacket-style fit, the Zip-Up Changing Robe; for the most coverage, the Surf Changing Robe.

How long should an adult hooded towel be?
Aim for a length that reaches around your knees. Our poncho models measure 105 to 110 cm long.

Is a hooded towel the same as a towel poncho?
Yes. Hooded towel, towel hoodie, poncho towel and surf poncho all describe a wearable towel with a hood that you pull on over your head. A changing robe is similar but usually has sleeves or a zip.

Can men and women wear the same hooded towel?

Can I use a hooded towel at the gym?
Yes. A lightweight hooded towel packs small, dries fast and makes it easy to change after a swim or a workout.

How do I wash my hooded towel?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours and hang out to dry. Avoid fabric softener, which can reduce the absorbency of microfibre.
