BeachBub beach umbrella on the beach

There’s a reason beach umbrellas have remained a classic choice for enjoying a day at the beach. They provide overhead shade, pack easily, and don’t require the large footprint of tents or cabanas. The challenge has always been keeping them securely anchored in the sand.

The beachBUB® Beach Umbrella System approaches that challenge by using its patented Build-A-Base™. Instead of relying on a heavy stand, the base is filled with sand so the beach itself becomes the anchor.

How the beachBUB® Beach Umbrella System Works

  1. Dig – Use the Sand Gopher to carve a small hole.
  2. Set and Fill – Place the ULTRA Base into the hole and completely fill it with sand.
  3. Lock In – Secure your umbrella using the Universal Clamshell Collar.

According to the product literature, setup takes about 80 seconds and can be completed by one person.

How to Anchor Your Beach Umbrellas

The patented Build-A-Base™ uses sand as the anchoring weight instead of requiring a heavy umbrella stand.
