Serious Shade, Zero Compromise
The Sun Bum Beach Umbrella is built to keep you and your crew protected from the moment you stake it in the sand. An extra-large 8-foot diameter canopy rated UPF 50+ blocks harmful UV rays across a wide footprint, giving the whole group room to breathe and relax without rotating through a postage-stamp of shade.
Construction Built for Real Beach Days
The canopy fabric is Teflon-coated weatherproof polyester, meaning it sheds light spray and resists the humidity that softens cheaper umbrellas over a season. A vented canopy design lets wind escape through the top rather than catching and inverting the canopy, which is the most common way beach umbrellas fail in a coastal breeze.
The pole is lightweight, rust-free, dull anodized aluminum. Aluminum is the right material choice for a beach umbrella because it stays light enough to carry down the beach, does not corrode in saltwater air the way steel does, and remains rigid enough to anchor securely in the sand.
Setup and Adjustability
A simple push-up mechanism means setup and takedown take seconds, not minutes. The 3-direction adjustable metal tilt lets you track the sun throughout the day without re-staking the pole, keeping shade where you need it from morning through late afternoon.
Carry and Storage
A self-fabric carry bag is included. The umbrella rolls up and stows into the bag, keeping the canopy protected during transport and making it easy to carry alongside your board bag, cooler, or beach chairs. Rated at 5.0 stars based on customer reviews at Island Water Sports.
Why Sun Bum
Sun Bum started in 2010 with a straightforward goal: make products that protect people from the sun. The Beach Umbrella carries that same philosophy into hard goods, pairing the brand's recognizable aesthetic with construction details that actually matter at the beach.
