WATCH: The viral hack for keeping sand off your beach towel
Say goodbye to sandy towels and hello to stress-free Spanish beach days
Nothing says summer like lazy days at the beach, but as much as we love the sun and sea, there’s one pesky problem that always seems to tag along – sand sticking to our beach towels.
It’s the eternal struggle and no matter how hard you shake, half the beach still seems to end up at the bottom of your bag or, even worse, back in the car.
Well, get ready to say goodbye to sandy towels and hello to a viral hack that's taking social media by storm. A simple, cost-effective trick is doing the rounds, shared by presenter, singer and actress Paula Dalli to her 50,000 Instagram followers.
So, what's the secret to sand-free beach bliss? Dalli reveals that it's all about a handy little item that will barely make a dent in your wallet. This hack will ensure that your post-beach car ride home is far more comfortable, leaving the sand where it belongs – at the beach.
According to Dalli, this tip is a game-changer for your beach experience. It’s especially useful if you’re heading to the beach with little ones who haven’t quite grasped the concept of sand, or if you’re simply not a fan of sandy towels. The secret weapon? A fitted sheet.
That’s right, something as simple and common as a fitted sheet can create an “incredible fort against the sand.” Dalli explains that the elastic bands on the corners will keep the sand out, creating a cosy space for you to relax.
She demonstrates how to secure the four corners of the sheet using backpacks or beach bags, providing a handy barrier.
But what about keeping your feet sand-free when you step into your little oasis? Dalli has a solution for that too. She suggests having a bucket of water nearby to rinse your feet before stepping onto your towel, or if you want to travel light, a simple bottle of water filled with seawater will do the trick.
What do you think? Would you try any of these tricks? Will they actually work?
