Coleman Weatherproof Sundome Outdoor Shelter

Product Information

From award-winning writing and photography to binge-ready videos to electric live events, GQ meets millions of modern men where they live, creating the moments that create conversations. I can see how side windows may be useful to create a breeze during very hot days, but we’ve found the large rear window in our tent adequate for that purpose. The ceiling of the tent has a hanging line, which is very useful for hanging clothing and towels to dry. Sun Resistance: We’ll cover why sun protection is important to you shortly, but don’t forget why it’s important to the tent.

This thing does take up a lot of space, with even the smallest size taking up a fairly large footprint, so be sure to hit the beach early so you don't struggle to find a place to park your circus tent of a canopy on a crowded strip of sand. Beach Ken would love the Shibumi Shade, a fairly expensive beach canopy that's best for those who spend a lot of time soaking up the sun. GQ may earn a portion of sales from products that are purchased through our site as part of our Affiliate Partnerships with retailers. Setting up the shade is fairly easy, so much so that one person can do all the work with minimal effort.The Neso 1 Sunshade looks a lot like those jelly hands from your youth, except this canopy actually serves a purpose—to protect you from the sun (duh). If the beach becomes a bit windy, the included stakes and sandbags can be used to keep the tent in place. When it comes to our product guides, Nicola has a wealth of experience in reviewing baby products, kids clothing and homewares. However, as each tent corner has two eyelets and only one is needed for the pole, we just use the good one. If you are travelling on foot, have a full car or getting on public transport, it needs to be light to carry and compact.

And the next time you’re hitting the beach, come prepared with one of these, the best beach tents we could find, from small domes for one or two people to the truly extra beach canopies for protecting your whole crew from the sun's glare. Its lightweight construction and carrying case make it easy to haul from the parking lot to the prime real estate by the shoreline. Established in 1998, BoatSafe is your independent guide into the world of boating, fishing, and watersports. And unlike other beach tents with mesh windows, this one offers two zippered windows so you can make it fully waterproof if it rains or keep it unzipped to let those breach breezes through. Its compact size also means it collapses into a very small package, about the size of an extra-large thermos.Ever tried and failed to lodge your beach umbrella in the sand only to have it flap away in the breeze, nearly impaling a fellow beach-goer? Although we’ve never encountered it, even on busy beaches, I can imagine that a beach tent the size of the Coleman DayTripper Beach Shade would not be very welcome in some spots on exceptionally busy days. They are ideal as they are quick to put up, provide shelter from the sun and can double up as a baby changing space, a shelter from the wind and rain and a spot to have your picnic. Second, it is large enough to be useful inside while fully closed, allowing for clothing changes, diaper changes, nursing, and the like. Couples could get away with a two-person beach tent and then there are plenty of baby beach tent options too, which are perfect for keeping your little one in the shade, whilst there is still room for them to play.
