Will this stake work for the beach?

No as sand is so porous. Stake needs to be put in dirt or grass areas. Hope this helps.

When I purchased this I also purchased a kit with longer stakes & mallet. Worked great. I don't know about the weights but you might be able to do that. Have fun at the beach!

If there is very much wind it will tend to fall over so if it is on the beach, rope ties and stakes help

Hmmmm. Sadly never used these at the beach yet despite it being a staple of my party circuit. The stake is not that long but since the pole is light I would imagine it would still work. I could see gusty winds creating an issue though.

Hi jessi. These stakes work well in soft ground. I replaced mine with a couple packs from our local dollar store. for $2.50 I have six plastic stakes. FYI.:)

If you had all the sandbags full and maybe use the stakes as well it would be ok... We used this on Myrtle Beach with just the sandbags and sand around the bottom floor without any problems. We didn't use the stakes on the beach - it has a bottom that holds your stuff also that helps to hold it down..

Yes, if you use the stakes that come with it. I live in the high desert and have no problem as long as I secure it.

IMHO it would be a bit heavy and sag onto the water compared to the plastic type netting. But if you pull it really tight and stake it all around it might work.

Yes. Works fine. Staked 3 so far. Just keep punching it until you get the desired movement. No hammering required.

Unfortunately I don't know how it is on the beach/sand. It's a great net and we travel with it a lot but haven't tried the beach yet. As long as you can get the posts in deep enough to secure it, I think it would work well. Good luck.

I ordered this to take to the beach. I would highly recommend sand anchors. What we did was dig holes aobut 6-8" deep, put the stake in sideways, and pack sand and water on top of it. It held for the most part, but some high winds definitely made the stakes loosen and therefore the net sagged. also note that the poles seemed to dig down into lose sand a bit when trying to make the lines to the stakes tight. Not a problem, unless you must have the net at the exact correct height.

The wind would be a problem, having camped on a lot of beaches myself. You will need something more than the type of stakes provided to keep it firmly connected to the ground. You could buy really long stakes or weight the corners. It's a great lightweight tent but if the wind blows hard, I would expect to have problems.

It does come with stakes. Depending on what kind of sand/ground u are putting them into is how well it stays put. We were at a lake and didn't have an issue with it staying in place.

Not likely to work on the beach. It needs a hard ground to plug in the pegs that hold up the net. I am not sure whether you will find the hard ground on the beach, because of texture of the quick sand.

I think so. I would recommend using ground stakes to keep it well anchored to the ground.

I think it would work fine on a beach, if you have long enough stakes to drive deep enough into the sand. But the one I bought would take up an awful lot of room on a public beach.
