Coleman Weatherproof Sundome Outdoor Shelter

Product Information

With superior sun protection, the Neso beach tent is ahead of the game. They’re sold all over the world, so you’ll see these on beaches everywhere. It’s also available in a wide array of colors to meet your style needs. Small beach tents and beach canopies are great for just an afternoon trip. Put a cooler in the tent and stash your shoes in there, too. Lay your towel under the canopy and avoid the harsh rays after a swim. Large or small, there are clear benefits to each. You’ll need to consider how often you hit the beach and how much use you really get out of the tent or canopy. Set Up Naturally, you need some valid sun protection. You want a UV rating that will keep you safe from harmful rays and sunburns. These tents work a lot like sunscreen in that regard. The higher the UV rating, the safer you are. The UPF rating on a tent means ultraviolet protection factor. Look for a UPF of at least 50. This will help cut those rays and protect you from getting skin cancer. The Coleman DayTripper Beach Shade does have one area where quality could be improved. The quality of the metal eyelets at each corner could be improved. The eyelets are used for pole mounting. If you are travelling on foot, have a full car or getting on public transport, it needs to be light to carry and compact.

At nine feet across with a sun protection rating of 50+ you’re getting incredible coverage here. The zippered windows provide great ventilation, like a beach canopy. But the overhand of the umbrella offers coverage like a tent. It’s really hard to appreciate how cool it is without trying it for yourself. When it’s set up, you can sit three adults under here with room to spare.A solid carrying case is also important. You want a sturdy case with quality handles that’s easy to transport. You’d be surprised but not every tent offers this. Most beach tents offer UV 50+ protection which is important if you are on the beach, especially in hot weather. The Coleman DayTripper Beach Shade does not have side windows. This creates a slightly narrower range of viewing angles than is possible in tents with side windows. The Eureka Solar Shade (paid link),for example, does have side windows. A UV beach tent will provide protection from direct sunlight so is ideal if you are at the beach with kids.

If you’ve never seen a tent catch fire, it can be surprising. Older tents especially were veritable tinder boxes. Once the material catches, the whole tent will burn and melt in just minutes. Be safe and be smart about placement near fires. Air Flow The frame is high quality steel. It adds weight to be sure, but it keeps it strong and sturdy. There’s a double truss one-piece frame around the top. Count on that to be tough. Take where you’re going into consideration. Steel legs are sturdy, sure. But they’re also heavy. If it’s a long walk from the car to the beach, you may be straining yourself. Ribs

Customer Area

The floor space measures 65 inches by 59 inches. There’s room for a couple of people in here, but that entire space isn’t covered. A good portion of that is porch space that extends beyond the beach canopy. Still, if you’re laying out with a friend, you’ll be comfortable. 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. Easy To Assemble In addition to providing excellent shade, the Coleman DayTripper Beach Shade has several other convenient features:

The tent weighs just over 6 pounds. It’s easy to manage and carry around with you. The base is polyethylene. That makes it durable and waterproof. It can handle some abuse and is puncture resistant. The Coleman Beach Shelter is a pop up tent to save you time. No need to fuss with poles and shaping things here. The tent pops into shape in minutes. Set up and take down will take you about four or five minutes.

About Boatsafe

Established in 1998, BoatSafe is your independent guide into the world of boating, fishing, and watersports. We provide expert insights and detailed guides to help you find products tailored to your needs and budget. Depending on what you choose, there can be a handful of extras involved here. Some beach canopies and beach tents include sand bags. You can fill these and use them to weigh everything down. This is essential in windy conditions.

Set up is beyond easy with this model. In fact, you barely set it up at all. The pop up design lets you just open it up and go. The downside is the inside isn’t super roomy. If you have beach chairs, they’re not going to fit in here. You’ll barely get a small cooler in here with you as well. Durability. Canvas may be tough, but can it withstand the sun for years? What about getting wet? You want a material that is tough but able to handle the elements. These crafty little huts offer you a little oasis in the middle of miles of scorching sand and respite from direct sun exposure, which can lead to the development of skin cancer, eye damage, and accelerate the rate that your skin ages—plus, most importantly, kill your vibe on an otherwise blissful beach day. 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? Never again. A beach tent is the most luxurious way to plant your flag on a prime strip of beach, and not think about the blazing sun for a couple hours.Beach canopies are obviously a great choice here. With open sides you have nothing to worry about. When you opt for a tent though, make sure it can breathe. Vents and window panels are key. And don’t forget that double beach canopies offers excellent airflow. Material
