Beach tents

Going to the beach is one of the most popular summer family vacations, and for good reason. Everyone in the family has something to do at the beach. Young children can play in the sand with reckless abandon, older kids can swim and play in the water, while Mom and Dad relax in the sun, read a book, and maybe get a tan. Beach barbeques and campfires are also favorites as the day wears on, and depending on the facilities families can sail, kayak, or play volleyball all day.

Though the ideal day at the beach is sunny and clear, rainstorms aren't the only things that can ruin a day at the beach. Too much wind, sun, or sand can also put a damper on the day, especially if there is no convenient shade or shelter. That's why beach tents have become popular with beachgoers, especially families with young kids. Beach tents are lighter weight and easier to set up than standard backpacking tents, and they're easy to toss in your beach tote on your way from the car. They assemble quickly; some designs are even self-erecting, so you can toss the tent onto the sand and it'll set up itself.

Beach tents offer some respite from the sun for those with sensitive skin, and they're a boon to young families with infants. With a beach tent, infants and toddlers can stay in the shade without being restricted to a child carrier or stuck under and umbrella; they're free to play in the tent while the rest of the family enjoys the sun. Beach tents are also handy for those needing a place to change into bathing suits while at the beach, allowing them to avoid awkward changing sessions in the car or trying to find a convenient restroom or changing room somewhere along the sand. For those wanting to catch a nap, these tents provide a handy place to get away from the noise and sun usually associated with beach trips. Lunch is no longer a sandy mess either, since families can get out of the wind much more easily.

Beach tents come in all shapes and sizes, from full-sided family affairs to simple half-shells which protect from the wind and sun but offer an unrestricted view of the water. Other designs have no walls, providing a roof to keep the sun off but nothing more. On a bright, warm day these can be great, but they don't offer as much protection from wind or prying eyes. Whatever your choice, a well-designed beach tent can transform your next vacation from ho-hum to a great day at the beach.

Is there anything more relaxing than a day at the beach? Listening to the waves hit the beach and the sounds of people enjoying themselves. Many people have been kept from enjoying these experiences due to sun sensitivity, but now with the number of beach tents that are available this no longer has to be a concern. In the past beach tents were only available through rental stands at the beach. Individuals owned umbrellas, but umbrellas need to be moved often to keep you protected from the sun and they are affected by the wind conditions. Umbrellas also are difficult to transport due to their length.

Beach tents are a great investment. The tents come in a variety of styles and sizes. There are small to large tents that can accommodate one person or the entire family. Most of the larger public beaches rent the tents along with umbrellas. This is a good option if you are an infrequent visitor to the beach. The beach tents that are available for rent come in individual or group sizes and are rented by the hour or day depending on the supplier. The rental fee for the beach equipment is usually inexpensive. On hot days all the beach equipment rents very quickly so it is a good idea to get what you need as soon as you get to the beach.

Owning a tent of your own insures that you will have one available to you. They come in a range of prices, depending on the size and style that you prefer. The cost of purchasing your own beach equipment is not much more than repeated rental costs. The tents are also compact and come in handy carrying cases that easily stores in the trunk of your vehicle.

Once you have made your purchase it is very easy to learn to set up, depending on the style and size that you bought. They not only provide shade from the sun, but also protection from the wind. It is still important to apply a high quality sun screen even if your have the protection from the sun by sitting in the shade. The sun screen will protect you from the harmful rays that can penetrate the fabric of beach tents. Harmful UV rays can penetrate through T-shirt material as well when you are exposed to the sun over a prolonged period of time. For this reason it is important to apply sun screen over your entire skin and then get dressed. It is also important to reapply the sun screen often through out your time outdoors.

By renting or purchasing beach tents or umbrellas and protecting your self with sunscreen, even the fairest skinned individual can enjoy a day at the beach. Use common sense and have your companions watch that you are not showing signs of over exposure.
