A khaki thatch canopy 6.5 ft across gives a beach spot the look of a palm hut, carried on a coated iron pole standing 6.7 ft tall. The pole ends in a point, so it drives straight into wet sand or soft turf without a separate screw anchor. The PP canopy sheds water and holds its color through a season of direct sun, and 8 ribs keep the shape when a breeze comes off the water. The tilt system swings shade as the sun crosses the sky. Every section detaches, so the whole 5.5 lb umbrella packs flat into a car trunk or a bag between trips.
