How to Care for your Beach Tent

How to Care for your Beach Tent

You just got your hands on the sold-out Dunes Shade Tent?

Here are some of our top tips for caring for your Beach Tent!

1. Use the bag it comes in to fill with sand to put inside the back of the tent on winder days as a weight to hold the tent down!

2. Our tent is sand-resistant and waterproof, however we do recommend letting it dry out before putting it back into its cover and storing it. Like any tent, you don't want to store it away wet or damp as this will attract mould!

3. PLEASE watch the video supplied on the QR code that came with your tent before using your tent so you know how to correctly fold your tent away. Folding the incorrect way could lead to irreversible damage. And we cannot offer a refund for damage you've done.

4. We recommend after every use to wash out your stainless steel zipper on the window and the tent bag of your Dunes Shade Tent. Just run some fresh water over it to dislodge any sand or sea-salt that could be stuck in there! Then let dry

5. Please use the pegs provided to tie down your tent when using as strong wind gusts could blow your tent in and cause damage.

6. Another tip we have is you can buy sand pegs from your local camping shop (like these ones from BCF) and these are great for when you're using the beach shade in soft sand! 

We hope you love it as much as we do. As a family of 6, we use ours almost every day! Whether that's on our regular beach trips, or in the back yard for toddler activities in the shade or it can even be used as a cute cubby house on rainy days!
