Shibumi: Best Shade at the Beach

After extensive research ahead of our first beach trip with our then 2 and 4-year-olds, I decided to invest in a CoolCabana. It served us well then, and it still does. However, one downside became evident: it’s a little heavy and large to transport.

During a visit to the shores of North Carolina, a blue shade caught my eye fluttering in the wind. Intrigued, I delved into my phone to discover Shibumi. Since then, it has become an indispensable part of our multigenerational annual trips to Onslow Beach, with three now in tow to accommodate our group of 11. We even pack one in our suitcase for our annual excursion to Naples, FL.

The Shibumi is a game-changer: lightweight, compact, and a breeze to set up in minutes. It offers all-day shade and sun protection with minimal effort. These days, we wouldn’t dream of heading to the beach without it.
