Glymnis Pop Up Beach Tent — UPF 50+ Portable Shelter, Blue S for 1–2 People, Instant Setup & Ventilated

The Glymnis Pop Up Beach Tent is a fast-opening, UPF 50+ portable shelter designed to shade 1–2 people while offering ventilation, a changing room option, and wind-resistant anchoring.

Lightweight and engineered for easy transport, this pop-up beach tent balances sun protection with airflow and stability. It packs down small for carrying to the shore, park, or campsite, yet unfolds into a roomy sheltered space with silver-coated polyester that blocks harmful UV rays. Choose the smaller size for solo or two-person use, or the larger model when you need space for the family.

How quickly can I set up and pack the Glymnis tent?

Setup is instant thanks to the built-in pop-up mechanism—just release the folded tent and it springs into shape. Folding back into the included carry case takes a few practiced attempts but is compact for transport.

• Instant pop-up open — no poles to assemble.
• Stored diameter: Φ17.32 inches (S) or Φ22 inches (L).
• Comes with a carry bag for easy transport and storage.

What level of sun protection and ventilation does it provide?

The tent uses 190T silver-coated polyester across the canopy to deliver UPF 50+ protection, helping reduce direct UV exposure while keeping the interior cooler. Large mesh windows promote airflow so you stay comfortable and can enjoy outside views without trapping heat.

• UPF 50+ silver coating for broad sun protection.
• Big mesh window for cross-ventilation and visibility.
• Interior stays cooler than direct sun exposure.

Is the Glymnis tent sturdy enough for windy beach conditions?

Glymnis strengthens the structure with steel support poles and a full anchoring kit to resist breezes common at the shore. The package includes multiple guy ropes and pegs so you can secure the tent to sand or grass to reduce blow-over risk.

• Support poles: 5×1.8mm (S) or 7×2mm (L) for frame rigidity.
• Four guy ropes and ten pegs to anchor the tent firmly.
• Wind-tested design for typical beach and park use.

How much interior space does each size offer and can it be used as a changing room?

The smaller Glymnis tent (Blue S) opens to 72.8 × 55.1 × 45.2 inches, fitting one to two people comfortably; the larger (Blue L) expands to 86.6 × 74.8 × 53.1 inches for three to four. A full-zip door closes completely to create a private changing area, and the floor can be extended flat for extra usable space.

• S (1–2 persons): 72.8 × 55.1 × 45.2 inches open size.
• L (3–4 persons): 86.6 × 74.8 × 53.1 inches open size.
• Zipper door converts into a private changing room; floor extension increases activity area.

Who is this for? The Glymnis Pop Up Beach Tent is ideal for beachgoers, solo campers, parents seeking quick sunshade for kids, and anyone who needs a fast, private shelter for changing or relaxing outdoors. It suits people who value fast setup, reliable UV protection, and a compact carry size for travel to the shore, park, sporting events, or backyard outings.
