Just gonna say upfront – I love going to the Beach (I mean, I am an Aussie after all), but there is absolutely nothing worse than a sandy crotch… towel.

So beach lovers rejoice! Forget the boys in red and yellow, there is only one lifesaver you need this summer and that is Tesalate. Stick with me, and I’m gonna tell you why.

Yes, this post is about a product review, but in case you don’t know me personally, I am the most jaded, sceptical person out there – and yet this piece of fabric blew my mind hence I wanted to share it on the blog.

This little beauty is named The Alchemist – and the design absolutely rocks; it’s also easy to spot when you’re returning from the surf. The word alchemist comes from Greek origins, referring to those early scientists in ancient times who worked what seemed like miracles, transforming substances.  Whether scientists or wizards, the team behind Tesalate know their stuff, and their range of sand-free towels as pure magic!

Just in time for the beach season, my order arrived just before Christmas Day, ensuring I could hit the beach non-stop for my two weeks off work. I took this baby all across Victoria, from Portsea and Rye, to Queenscliff and the Great Ocean Rd, as well as my trusty local St. Kilda Beach – and as you can see from some other pics, my mates were quick to steal my towel! Now, let’s get to the nitty gritty.

The Good.

Look & feel – There are so many unique designs, whether you’re a fan of bold, bright or simple patterns. Made from Absorblite microfiber these beauties are soft to the touch, and at first when you open your new towel you might be unsure whether it’s going to be good value (as it feels very different from your everyday basic beach towel) but trust me, once you put it in action you forget everything you knew about beach towels. This is the touch you fast learn to love.

Compact & light – Your new beach pal comes delivered in a small tote and will fit into any beach bag, backpack or whatever you use. And yep, they are really light – so you don’t have to worry about extra weight, you can save more room for the beer (or water or whatever you drink at the beach).

The Bad.

Too many designs – I literally spent about 20 minutes on the website struggling to choose which design I wanted, because there are so many to choose from, and they all look so damn good. Don’t believe me, go have a look at www.tesalate.com and see for yourself!

The Bloody Awesome.

Sand-free – Yes, the Tesalate towel is promoted as sand-free, and it ain’t no gimmick. The sand literally falls off these towels, so there is no more bringing the beach back home with you. One other pet peeve I have when visiting the beach is when you get back to your car and you have sandy feet. Well hey ho! No more looking for a tap to wash your feet off. In a matter of seconds, I wiped my feet off with the Tesalate towel and then shook the towel out. No sand on my feet, no sand on the towel, no sand in the car. Bloody ripper!

Rapid dry – I actually forgot that one of the benefits of these towels was that they dry rapidly, until the short walk from the beach to the car. In the few minutes it took me to get back to the parking lot, the Tesalate towel had dried off – faster than my boardies. I’m honestly contemplating using one of these bad boys as a shower towel because they dry so fast!

Bigger is better, right?! – Although I ordered a normal full-sized beach towel, you can now actually get Tesale Towels for Two – which are twice the size of a regular Tesalate towel. So, if you have kids, or like to cuddle in the sun, want to use it for a picnic, or like me you just want to spread out – then my advice is to purchase the bigger version.

The ‘I Can’t 100% Confirm… But I Bet It’s True’

Ultra-absorbent – Tesalate towels are absorbent, yes, I can attest to that, but apparently, they can absorb up to a whopping 1 litre of water! There was no way for me to test this out unless I threw it in the ocean and then wrung it out in a measuring cup – but every other key selling point to these towels is true so I’m guessing this one’s bang on as well.

If this post hasn’t convinced you to buy one of these or suggest this to all your friends and family as the present you want for summer, your birthday, or whatever you can think up, then you’re missing out. Mine was literally stolen by partner the day after I got it, and if I don’t get it back then I’m gonna order another one – because they are 100% worth the money and will change up your beach game this summer!
