Shade by the Lake: Premium Tommy Bahama Umbrellas for New Buffalo Beach Days.
On New Buffalo’s shore a single umbrella can rewrite a summer afternoon: an eight‑foot canopy that tilts, blocks sun at UPF 50+, and anchors solidly in sand so you can read, nap or watch the water without cooking. Weekends Harbor Country supplies Tommy Bahama umbrellas you can rent for a day or up to a week, offering a straightforward fix for families and sun‑sensitive visitors who need shade on demand.
Highlights
Outing Highlights
UPF 50+ Canopy with an 8‑Foot Reach
The umbrellas provide broad coverage with an eight‑foot wingspan and UPF 50+ fabric to reduce sun exposure during long afternoons on the sand.
Telescoping Pole and Screw Anchor for Fast, Stable Setup
A patented screw/sand anchor base combined with a telescoping pole makes the umbrella easy to bury and secure in sand; the tilt option lets you angle shade as the sun moves.
Know the Wind Limit
Operate the umbrella only in calmer conditions—if winds exceed 20 MPH, the operator warns against use to avoid runaway gear and potential damage.
What the day feels like
What the Rental Feels Like
Pick a patch of sand, screw the anchor into place, extend the telescoping pole and unfold a wide canopy that immediately cools your strip of shoreline. The tilt mechanism lets you chase shade as the sun arcs, and because rentals are available from a single day up to a full week, you can plan a one‑off respite or outfit an entire seaside stay without hauling your own gear.
