It appears to be great for beach, but is it good enough for picnics in park/campsite as well. I don't see much padding to this blanket, hence I wonder

I would only use for beaches. It's very thin. Keeps out sand. Drys quick. And easy to shake off sand. Also very light and compact.

It's great for the sand. It has no padding, so if you lay it over sticks or pine straw, you'll feel it. It would not provide protection from Burrs.

There is no padding on the parasheet (think parachute material). If your campsite has rocks/pinecones/small twigs, you will feel them. If the ground is wet, it will seep through. (However, it will dry quickly.)

There's no padding. It's parachute material.... meant to keep your blanket or towel on top of it sand/dirt-free.

the other point i would add about this product is that the eyelets rusted after a single beach week... other than that it's very easy to use!

Perfect for the beach... Thin paper thin parachute fabric. Would not provide protection on a hard ground surface. Would be okay on a nice lawn.

This blanket is not waterproof and is very thin. It would work on dry grass at a park but I wouldn't put it on anything I wouldn't sit on without the sheet.

There is NO padding. We used it on dew covered grass and my pants got wet. It dried fast but my pants did not. So I say it will only be used on the beach or very dry grass. I love how small it bundles up to fit in my beach bag that is loaded with toys. The corner pockets are also very handy to load sand in and quickly secure my spot in the sand.

that is what I use it for. I covered it with outdoor fabric and use it as a cushion for a deck box. Keep in mind, it is VERY dense Not cushy at all

Depending on where you live, yes it is suitable for summer. If your evenings / nights get cooler, then it will be fine. I ordered this to be a spread like shown in the photo. However, it comes nowhere close to reaching the floor. It is strictly to be used as a blanket. I loved the look and weight of it, but unfortunately I had to send it back as it was much too small for my bed.

It is not padded enough for camping.My grandson uses it for nursery naps. It is very pretty and colorful.

We used ours at the beach, if you can stake it down fairly well (not just in sand), it does pretty well.

I bought the large and it is about the size of a bath towel but not a bath sheet which is a SUPER SIZED bath towel. It is soft and very absorbent but is thinner than a normal bath towel. It will keep you covered. It would be good for the beach but probably not big enough to lay on.

It could but I would not recommend because it is soft sided so there isn't much bracing. Insulation is also not so thick. This is better suited for smaller more compact containers along with your picnic gear. Hope that helps. :)

honestly, i use it for all types of weather conditions. it's super comfortable. considering how insulated your tent is, you may have to refrain from zipping the bag all the way up at times. beats having multiple tents for different occasions.

Yes of course. It's not something to sleep in on say a camping trip, but maybe sitting or napping on the beach, it's great. I'm 5'4" and I sit and play in it with my 2 year old. It's great for indoor rainy day play too!

yes it would be great for camping on the beach, but I always you this lightweight tent with a separate footprint in case I miss something sharp or pointy underneath the tent floor.

I really don't know.. We haven't used ours yet at the beach. I guess it could be used on a concrete surface if you put a blanket for comfort in there..

So , the poncho liner is the name , but in the field we know that it is basically a very light compactable blanket , I can say that i have never and i have never seen anyone acutally use this with their poncho unless it was as a sleeping back , so i would say this is not really to be used as a " poncho liner " if you are wearing your poncho as wet weather gear . Its just a really good feild blanket or blanket in general. super lightweight and compacts really good .

With two people you can lift the opened screen tent over a picnic table. It's easier with three people or it helps if the two people have a pretty good arm spread. It's roomy enough for a standard "state park" picnic table. We bought it so that we could eat at the picnic table without being bothered by bugs or rain, when we're camping. Keep in mind that, because of the angled walls, the actual rain protection area is not much bigger than the space needed to sit at the picnic table.

I think it would be fine for use on the beach, as long as you take-a-long something to tie it down with (bucket of rocks, concrete blocks, & bungee cords, etc). It really doesn't take much wind to move it or knock it down. Good luck & have fun!

Yes, you can camp at the beach with it(ie..use it for shade). Completely closes up all the way if needed and had openings on side for ventilation if needed.

The sun protection isn't great, however it is really light which makes it easy to pack and set up. It is also very breathable. I thought I would use it at the beach for my one year old, but have got more use out of it while camping (it's the play tent), in our yard and inside the house. I tie a light blanket or sheet over it if more shade is needed. Overall, I initially purchased it for the shade but have already got my money's worth out of it for different reasons. Hope this was somewhat helpful.

It will fit over a picnic table. Not much more room though. You can still get around it.
