Review on Stay Cool At The Beach With Gorich 3-4 Person Pop Up Beach Tent - UPF 50+ Sun Protection, Cabana Style Shelter, And Simple Setup by Dean Partybus

I grew up going to beaches since we lived in a tropical island. However, I hated the sun burning my skin. I don't like sunbathing. I don't like going to the beach as the heat triggers my migraines, honestly. I prefer doing watersports and scuba diving.However, with the help of this tent, I lasted 2 hours at the beach this weekend. I was able to assist my husband with guiding our toddler on his first beach trip. We were all able to sit in our camping chairs comfortably inside this tent, with all our water jugs and bags of food and clothes, with room to spare.If your expectation of this tent is for it to be a shade tent, then you will be 100% satisfied. Even with the sun beating down on us with no palm tree in sight, my hair didn't crisp up and burn. The windows all around created enough draft to avoid the death oven scenario.If you wish this tent to also act as a rain cover, all around tent, then look elsewhere. The material is thin and flimsy, which is fine for its primary purpose. In fact, I would say it's a pro since it contributes to it's lightness and ease of folding. I may be easy to tear if you have pets, but what do you expect for this price range?The stakes work well enough to anchor the tent, but you'll mostly need your things on the tent to keep it in the ground when there are gusts of wind. It really depends on the ground or type of sand you are working with. If you are in a beach with fine sand, you might need special stakes. Or just put jugs of water at the edges of the tent.The tent is easy to shake off (with 2 people) and fold (the pictogram helps a lot!). It's easy to carry in the provided bag with shoulder straps.Overall, it's price, I highly recommend it!
