Does this tent have a bottom, or do you need to use a towel or beach blanket?

Yes it has a very nice bottom. The whole thing is larger than it looks. My one & two year old grands napped in it at the same time. We put it under our big canapy- double protection from the sun.

It's not a tent...it's a canopy and has no sides. It does come with stakes, but in loose sand, they probably won't work well.

Only with Velcro and mini hooks at the bottom! I used it for burning man, so I had to duck tape it together for more closure!

No. The bottom is a durable plastic or turf type material. It's the same material that the tent is made from.

yes the bottom is mesh. sand can get in bag..but it also allows sand to leave bag and all items to drain and dry while in the bag

It does have a floor made of the same material as the tent. We looked at several versions last summer for a beach trip and I'm not sure about model numbers, we went with this one b/c the lighter color would attract less heat on the beach.

There is a bottom made of light canvas. I just put a blanket down for my dog.

It does not have a porch or awning so if you just used the tent itself, the shade provided when its facing the sun is not that much. We used a beach umbrella set up in front of it and it worked well, and it was easier to move the umbrella to adjust for the angle of the sun than it would be to move the tent (although the tent is also very easy to set up and take down to move).

Yes, it has a floor of sorts, it is a 3 sided tube style tent. With one side being the floor. There is no way to close off the ends, so if used placement is important to avoid wind and water entering the tent.

Yes, you can zip it up completely- like a normal tent. We haven't used it to camp a beach, but I don't see why you couldn't use it for that.

The tent has a heavy duty rubberized floor, but I still put a tarp under it. The tarp didn't come with the tent. The tent does come with a nice bag for storage, just remember that this tent is very heavy. But this is a very nice tent, I do recommend it.

The bottom is mesh with a thin ring to hold it together...I think it work fine for drying.

It does not but I found an outdoor waterproof blanket to use on the bottom as a floor.

It's a nice late spring to early fall tent! I love it, it's great for beach camping the front porch helps keep the sand out:)

No. The tent does have a relatively tough floor but if using a second waterproof material consider using a light weight tarp or poly and cutting it slightly smaller than the tent floor or use it inside turned slightly up on the sides.

There is no bottom because I think it is intended to be placed on the ground. However, we put ours on a mahogany deck and therefore we attached a permeable barrier to hold the sand but let the rain through - we live in the Pacific Northwest and have plenty of rain. The cover - which is SO COOL - does not keep out rainfall but is perfect for us to keep out neighborhood cats and most the leaves that fall in the autumn. And, of course, the cover folds back to act as seats.

No it does not. The bottom has about a 8" flap that I steak to the ground. Still a great tent.
