The WIWIGO beach blanket is an oversized waterproof and sandproof mat, around 10 by 9 feet at the largest size, big enough for two to eight adults plus the cooler and the beach bag. The slick woven nylon surface does not hold sand the way a cotton towel does: sand sits on top and slides off with a flick instead of following you into the car. It is quick-drying, packs down into a pouch roughly the size of a paperback, and anchors against wind with stakes and corner pockets you can weight with sand. Best fit: families staking out a base camp, picnic and park days, festivals, and anyone tired of laundering half the beach out of their towels.
Pros
- Sand does not stick to the woven nylon, it shakes straight off
- Fits a whole family plus gear at roughly 10 by 9 feet
- Packs into a pouch small enough to live in a tote or glovebox
- Stakes and weightable corner pockets keep it from kiting away in wind
Cons
- The thin nylon is built for sand-shedding, not padding, so bring a chair or towel if you want cushioning
Frequently asked questions
Will it blow around in the wind?
It is very light, so use the included stakes and drop sand in the corner pockets. Anchored properly it stays put on breezy days.
Is it actually waterproof or just water resistant?
Damp sand and light moisture will not soak through, so you stay dry sitting on wet sand. Standing water can eventually seep at the seams.
How small does it pack down?
It folds into its attached pouch at roughly the size of a thick paperback book, light enough for a carry-on or beach tote.
Is it comfortable to lie on directly?
It is a thin barrier layer, not a padded mat. Most people throw a towel on top for lounging and use the blanket as the sand shield.
