Do Beach Tents Get Hot? 

When in direct sunlight, your pop-up beach shelter will start to warm up, a lot! There are ways to cool that beach tent down though such as placing your fishing tent, when possible in shaded areas of the beach like a shadow of a large structure.

What Colour Beach Tent is Best?

When choosing a fishing beach tent, keep in mind that darker colours can block UV radiation, but can also make your tent quite hot. The light-coloured tents like white and yellow reflect light and don't absorb heat, so they are cooler, but they let UV rays through. Blue beach shelters are the most effective colour for blocking these dangerous rays.
