1. A beach umbrella comes in a wide range of styles. Some are designed to attach to your chair, while others sit in the sand and cover a large area.
2. Outdoor cabanas have four stakes that go into the ground and create a handy sheltered area. Spread beach blankets underneath your outdoor cabanas to provide shelter for the whole family in one easy step.
3. If you spend a lot of time in the sun, look for a beach umbrella or outdoor cabana that blocks UV light. Several of our outdoor umbrellas & cabanas are certified by the AMC Cancer Research Center.
4. Chair umbrellas are designed to attach directly to your beach chair and provide personal shade. Some clamp to the outdoor chair, while others are designed to slide into a hole on the chair's frame.
5. Beach cabanas & outdoor umbrellas are meant to be portable. Most are made from lightweight aluminum frames, and the poles can be taken apart for easy transport.
6. For the greatest durability, choose a umbrella with at least six ribs. Fewer than six ribs provide less support, and the ribs might snap in a strong wind.
7. For extra versatility, purchase a umbrella with a tilt feature. This allows you to angle the umbrella and ensure protection even as the sun changes position.
8. Cleaning your fabric umbrella is easy. Simply wash with a mild soap and water solution and let dry. For stubborn stains like suntan lotion, use a fabric spot remover.
9. Most cabanas are made from a combination of vinyl and sun-blocking nylon. They can be cleaned with a simple water rinse.
10. The more time you spend in the sun, the more important it is to have the proper protection. Make your day at the beach enjoyable and safe with the right beach cabanas & umbrellas.
