Finding Your Perfect Summer Shade Companion
What factors should you consider when choosing the best beach umbrella for your summer outings or beachfront business? All beach shades are not created equal, so quality construction and wind resistant designs are the keys to getting years of enjoyment out of your new beach umbrella.
Factors to Consider When Buying a Beach Umbrella
A well-made beach umbrella may cost a little more initially, but it won’t come apart, go flying away, or be destroyed by the first high-wind gust. Consider these factors to make the perfect selection for summer fun:
- Wind resistance. Most beach umbrellas fail because the umbrella canopy ribs cannot withstand the force of the wind, or they lift out of the sand and go flying, putting other beach-goers in danger.
- Sun protection. Inexpensive beach umbrella canopies do not block as much sun as the UPF 50 sun protective fabrics used in high-quality brands like beachBUB.
- Full-size shade footprint. You will want a full size beach umbrella at 7.5 feet in diameter to have plenty of space for your beach chairs and hooks for hanging towels or damp clothing.
- Quality construction. Stitching, fabric thickness, pole materials, and canopy ribs should be built to last, avoid weak spots like tilt mechanisms, and stand up to years of daily use.
- Optional accessories. Having available sun visors, cup holders, tray tables, and other accessories that will fit your beach umbrella means you’ve always got it made in the shade.
- Easy to carry and set up. A well-designed beach umbrella should come with a sturdy oversized carrying case that makes it easy to pack up and be lightweight enough to be carried to your favorite waterfront hideaway.

Comparing beachBUB to the Competition
Problems with your beach tent or sun shade can take all the fun out of a trip to the lake, might leave you or your family exposed to sun damage, or have you chasing a flying umbrella spear down a crowded beach. Umbrellas with sand anchors and sand screws are famous for working free and even causing injuries.
Investing in a beachBUB beach umbrella with a sandbag base that is easy to fill, is easy to empty, and lasts a lifetime will take the headaches out of beach umbrella ownership. Keep your shade securely over your beach towel and stop worrying about runaway gear by choosing the best beach umbrella that stands up to daily use and active lifestyles.
