Our Story

At Sand Cloud, our mission is to protect our oceans and #SaveTheFishies. 


We founded Sand Cloud on the sunny beaches of San Diego, inspired by the ocean around us. At the time, we were just three friends with a dream to reinvent an age-old product: the beach towel. We committed ourselves to using sustainable materials and donating a portion of all sales to marine conservation charities as a way to protect the beaches we love. When you purchase a beach towel from Sand Cloud, you not only get a sand-resistant, ultra-absorbent Turkish cotton towel, but also help us in our mission as a portion of every sale goes to a worthwhile environmental charity. 


Now, Sand Cloud is more than we ever could have imagined. We not only sell the world's best beach towel, but we've introduced other eco-friendly accessories, like clothing made from recycled materials, reef-safe sunscreen, reusable glass water bottles and reusable metal straws. 


 Along the way, we've been named Philanthropists of the Year by the Pacific Marine Mammal Center, been ranked as one of the fastest-growing company by Inc Magazine, and have worked with partners like Ryan's Recycling on community beach cleanups. But our favorite milestone by far has been watching the difference our customers make in the fight to #SaveTheFishies. Thank you for supporting Sand Cloud!
