Looking For A Beach Tent


Recommended Posts

I looked at all of the topics and was not quite sure where to post this. I am sorry if it is in the wrong place. 

 

We are taking a 10-day on Princess in February. Six of those days will be on a beach. We would like to get some sun, but not be in it (directly) for 5 - 8 hours each day. I would like to purchase a beach tent that fits two average-sized adults.  I will be traveling by plane to the city of the port, so it cannot be gigantic. It needs to either be a carry-on or fit in a checked bag (28" spinner). 

 

If anybody here has purchased one and has some feedback, preferably on a good tent that is easy to set-up, shake the sand from and tote around, I would be most grateful. 🙂

I am a beach lover but am very fair and need shade. I bought this tent online from Amazon and it worked well. Has its own carry bag with a strap so can be carryon. Opens and sets up super easy (prior to this I had one where you had to connect all the bars and string them through straps on exterior. This is much easier). Two adults can easily fit inside. I have even used it elsewhere with small fold up sand chairs. I hope CC lets me share this link :

Look online and you can probably find various options for a "beach canopy" similar to the sample one described below. I was recently at the beach and saw a couple with one that was in a small duffle bag. It takes a bit longer to set up since you have to put sand in the bags but it is definitely portable.
