There are two pockets where the sticks go into, front and middle. As for the stakes, if its windy us all of them but if not 4-5 is enough.

I believe there are around 12-18 stakes (or so) included in the set, but in my experience, the stakes are perfectly fine. We've used the tent about a dozen times and have used the stakes in regular grass, sandy soil, and very rocky soil, as well as through inclement weather. The we have not had a single problem with the stakes being flimsy, bending, coming loose, etc.

We live in Miami and have fairly windy days in the summer with heavy rain. We have installed our canopy using aircraft cable to trees at the perimeter of our yard, tightened up with turnbuckles and removable using lockable steel caribiners at the canopy corners. We just didn't want the look of giant poles, so our canopy looks more like a floating sail overhead. :-) Also, if you use a post you actually need to sink the poles deeper than 3 feet...the rule of thumb is 1/3 below ground, 2/3 above. So for a sail mounted 8' high, you would need a 12' pole with 4' buried. Steel pipe 3.5-4" is recommended, especially for bigger sails in a windy area.

Oh my. We got this a few years ago, I want to say yes there are stakes. Only used it twice.

The bags are now at another location, so they're not handy for me to check, but if the canopy is on vertical poles you should be okay. My father ended up sticking a couple of poles into buckets of sand, because the wind was sliding the tent across the parking lot. Unfortunately, he didn't remove the side of the canopy which was tied to the pole, he just stuck it right into the bucket of sand. With the bags you can maneuver the ties for the sides and the bags so they don't interfere with each other.

For flat surfaces with packed sand, I'd say 10-12" (metal ones). For looser dune sand, try to find longer ones. Just search "long tent stakes" on Amazon and there's a bunch of good options. First on the list are 12" Coleman stakes. Great tent for the beach by the way!

It must be staked at least at the four corners. Otherwise, the tent cannot be set up. Feel free to contact us with any other questions.

It has on the bottom corners rings for tent stakes. I weighs nothing so will blow away. Comes with light weight tent stakes. You might want to find better tie down stakes.

If there is no wind, they will hold a tent at the beach. I would put them in at an angle instead of straight down.

4stakes, one on each corner. 8 if its windy, there is loops on the corners and middle too. Drive stakes inward towards tent to prevent from pulling up

There are stakes that come with it and pockets to put sand in on the beach. It does very well in the wind.

It has pockets on the corners that you can fill with sand to secure it. That's all we used last year on vacation and it worked fine. I suppose you could also buy tent stakes to use through the loops at the corners.

There are stake holes for tent stakes. When we use it on our deck we secure it with these on windy days. It is so easy to put up we don't leave it up all the time.

There are special screw in stakes/anchors that can be purchased from King Canopy. They screw into the ground at each leg and secure the canopy.
