ABSTRACT:
A sunbathing mat having a removably attachable inflatable headrest for use on a beach or while visiting a pool. The mat further includes an elongated washable, moisture-absorbent fabric piece. A top portion of the fabric piece is foldable over an intermediate portion of the fabric piece and is releasably attachable in this position to form a flap for enclosing the headrest. A plurality of supple, noncorrosive, nonabrasive straps mate and secure the headrest in the enclosed posture. An alternative mat includes loops and mating stakes. The loops are fixed to the four corners of the sun bathing mat and the mating stakes are insertable into and through each one of the four loops and into a supporting surface to anchor each one of the four corners of the mat to the supporting surface. The mat may also be provided with a plurality of binding cords which enable the user to bind the mat in a small compass. The mat contains no pockets to trap sand or other foreign substances. It does not incorporate abrasive materials and thus, does not promote the risk of snagging the users garment.
