15 Beach Umbrellas To Add To Your Summer Must-Have List

If you’re doing it for the ‘gram

You already know you’re going to try and snap a cute pic for Insta. No photoshoot is complete without some props and this umbrella totally fits the bill.

If a standard umbrella won’t cut it

Sure, maybe you secretly wish you were camping in the mountains instead, but this umbrella tent will keep you cool in the shade no matter where you are.

If you want one that’s easy to use

This little guy is perfect if you want to avoid the hassle of trying to screw the stand of your umbrella into the sand. Which should honestly be considered an Olympic sport. A heavy sandbag keeps it sturdy and secure to the ground, guaranteeing the wind won’t take it for a ride.

If you’re a party of one

Riding solo and not looking to transport an entire umbrella just for yourself? This one provides the ideal amount of shade for one person and its clamp easily attaches to everything from chair arms to beach bags.

If you’re meeting up with friends

This is great to use with other umbrellas. Its square design meshes perfectly with umbrellas that are round so there are no funky gaps.

If you’re hosting a party

Nothing is more frustrating than hosting a beach party and have sand get into the food. This cabana is a great solution for keeping your snacks and treats safe, while also offering a spot for your guests to store shoes and bags.

If you’re not afraid of patterns

We can’t get over how cute this option is. Not only is it eye-catching, but it also offers UPF 50+ protection and has a button so the top can tilt at whatever angle you desire. Not to mention cow print is totally in right now.

If retro is more your style

Why mess with a classic? Wind vents help to prevent this one from being taken away by the wind. And its black and white striped hood makes it feel like you’re sitting beachside at an Italian bistro.

If you’re looking for something kid-friendly
