Tilt Portable Beach Umbrella

The purpose of an umbrella is to provide shade - which would work great if the sun didn't move :).  That's why it's important to have a tilt feature so that as the sun moves - you don't have to move your umbrella - just simply tilt it.

Unlike other portable beach umbrellas Nautica Beach Umbrella has a tilt feature. When the sun moves just tilt the umbrella a different direction and you will be protected from damaging UV light.

Beach Umbrella and Wind

The two things that keep your umbrella from blowing over or away is a vent at the top and strong anchoring in the sand.

A vent at the top provides wind protection and more stability so that it won't blow away on a windy day.

Another feature that makes the Nautica beach umbrella the best beach umbrella is how it goes (and stays) into the sand.

It is called a power twist.

See the two handles on the umbrella pole - just twist them and the pole goes right into the sand - nice and deep.  For durability, high quality fiberglass ribs stand up to the wind so they don't bend or break like cheaper umbrellas.
