Beach Shade
There is an art to the perfect Australian beach day. It involves timing the tides, finding a park before the crowds, and securing prime real estate on the sand. But even the best spot can turn into a cooker when the midday sun hits.
At OZtrail, we believe that you should be able to enjoy the coast all day long without getting roasted. Our beach shade solutions are designed for speed and simplicity, giving you instant relief from the glare so you can read, nap, or watch the waves in cool comfort.
Rapid Beach Shelters for Spontaneous Trips
When the ocean is calling, you don't want to waste time wrestling with complex poles and heavy fabrics. You want to hit the sand, pitch your gear, and dive in. The Swift Pitch Beach Tent is the ultimate tool for these spontaneous missions. Engineered for a lightning-fast setup, this pop-up beach shelter practically pitches itself.
The innovative Swift Pitch mechanism allows you to lock the frame into place in seconds, creating an instant haven for your towel, cooler, and kids. Unlike flimsy alternatives that bow in the sea breeze, our design features a robust frame that holds its shape, paired with sand pockets that you can fill to weigh the structure down.
This means your shelter stays put even when the afternoon southerly kicks in. The UV-protective fabric acts as a shield against harsh rays, while the open-front design ensures you catch the cooling sea breeze while staying out of the direct sun. It is the perfect balance of protection and airflow, giving you a private cabana experience without the hassle.
On-Demand Personal Protection
Sometimes, you don't need a full tent; you just need to keep the sun off your face while you sit in your favourite chair. For the fisherman on the jetty, the spectator at the cricket, or the reader on the beach, our Clip-On Chair Umbrella is a game-changer. This clever accessory attaches universally to almost any camp chair, instantly upgrading your seat into a shaded throne.
The flexible shaft allows you to adjust the angle of the canopy as the sun moves across the sky, ensuring you stay in the shade from morning coffee to sunset drinks. It is compact enough to leave in the boot of your car permanently, so you never get caught out by the sun again. Watch the kids play surf lifesaving or just enjoy a quiet moment by the water with this personal beach shade.
Built for the Coast
Salt, sand, and wind are tough on gear, which is why we build our beach shelters to last. We use durable, easy-to-clean fabrics that can be brushed free of sand in seconds, and corrosion-resistant materials for our frames to handle the salty air.
Plus, we know that the best beach gear is the gear that actually gets used, so we focus on making our products lightweight and portable. They pack down into compact carry bags that are easy to sling over your shoulder, leaving your hands free for the esky and the boogie boards.
Complete Your Coastal Camp
Once you have your beach shade sorted, make sure the rest of your setup is ready for a full day of sun and surf. If you are looking to expand your tent & shelter options for camping or overnight trips, we have a range of gear designed to keep you covered:
