We were pleased with the WolfWise 2-3 Person Beach Canopy Tent and would recommend it for beachgoers looking for a compact, lightweight, and protective shelter. This great lightweight SPF50+ tent is available in a rainbow of colours, it’s easy to put up and has a unique anchor system – fill up the sandbags (or use rocks) prop the tent up with the poles and you’re all set.

Why we love it: This is an incredibly lightweight tent with full 360-degree ventilation and UV protection.

It's easy and quick to assemble, provides shelter from both sun and wind and is extremely lightweight.However, folding it back down did take some practice, and we’d recommend watching a tutorial or two before attempting it on the beach. Setting up is a breeze thanks to the unique drawstring opening mechanism, which can be done easily by one person. Ventilation could be better, but the openable door and mesh window provided some relief from the heat, so we didn’t feel too suffocated.

The plastic pegs can bend when pushed into firm ground, so consider bringing your own heavy-duty pegs for added stability.

One more thing to keep in mind is the lack of information on water resistance, which could be essential if you’re caught in a sudden downpour. Mumsnetters say it is a tricky one to assemble - especially if it’s windy and you’re juggling kids and a picnic - so it’s a good idea to do a trial run at home before you head out to the beach. Firstly it has sandbags to stop it blowing away so no faffing with pegs, and it just pops into shape as you’d expect.
