Cooler, check. Sunscreen, check. Beach toys, check. But what about a shady reprieve to escape from the heat?
As the temperature gets warmer and UV rays get stronger, you may want to consider grabbing a high-quality beach tent or canopy to keep your shoreline trip worry-free. A beach shelter provides great relief and comfort for those long days out in the sun. Plus, a lot of tents can be used during picnics in the park or double as an additional source of shade in your backyard.

It features large mesh windows that provide plenty of ventilation, two storage pouches to keep your belongings and a floor mat to keep your bottom sand-free.
