What is the beach umbrella?
Any regular beachgoer knows the classic beach umbrella struggle. There are days when the umbrella simply refuses to stand no matter how much you dig, twist, and turn it — not to mention the many times when the umbrella simply flops over or takes flight and bounces across the beach like a dangerous missile.
Here are the best beach umbrellas:
Best overall: tommy bahama sand anchor 7-foot beach umbrella
Best canopy umbrella: sport-brella all-weather umbrella canopy
Best high-end umbrella: frankford steel commercial grade beach umbrella
Best for windy days: beachbub all-in-one beach umbrella system
Best reflective umbrella: coolibar titanium beach umbrella
Best overall introduce.
Tommy bahama sand anchor 7-foot beach umbrella, the umbrella comes with a convenient polyester carrying case which helps ensure you won’t drag sand into your car or house after a long beach day.
The Sport-Brella is easy to set up, too. The telescoping pole has a plastic tip that is held in place by a lever. Once open, internal side pockets help you stay organized.
It’s durably constructed with zinc-plated steel ribs, stainless steel springs, and an attractive, 8-foot ash wood pole. In addition, the extra heavy, marine-grade acrylic fabric — with a 50+ UPF rating — is specially engineered to provide optimal shade.
The umbrella comes with a carry bag, the umbrella, the base, two rings (one is for the base, the other to hang things on), a shovel, and a wrench. The beachBUB comes with a unique three-year replacement protection plan.
The water-repellent nylon umbrella has a 50+ UPF rating and a patented double-canopy design with a mesh insert. This umbrella stands 7 feet tall, with a 6-foot arc. It is lightweight— it collapses to 45 inches and weighs just 4 pounds — but with a coated, non-corroding aluminum frame, it is also sturdy.
