On the beach, by the pool or in the garden, a towel soon becomes uncomfortable: your head lies too low, the sun shines in your face and you want to keep your luggage as small as possible. A beach headrest with a sunshade is designed for exactly these situations. In this guide you will find out when such a product is worth buying, what data the GOOTER SunBeachy has and what to look for when choosing.
What is a beach headrest with a sunshade?
The beach headrest is a foldable support for your head and back with a sunshade. It is not a substitute for a parasol or sun cream, but an addition for relaxing hours outdoors. The product page shows how exactly the sunshade is built and how to adjust it.

When is a beach headrest worth it?
On the beach and by the lake
On sand or grass you lie more comfortably when your head and back have some support. Especially for longer stays, this is an advantage over a simple towel. The carrying strap helps if the walk from the car park to the water is a little longer.
By the pool and in the garden
You can also use the headrest at the edge of the pool or on the lawn. When you do not need it, you fold it up and store it in a cupboard or in the garage.
When travelling
Because it is only approx. 8 cm high when folded, the SunBeachy is easier to stow than a classic beach chair. If you are already travelling with golf luggage, you can plan it in together with other travel accessories.

What to look for when buying
- Dimensions: Are approx. 45 × 35 cm when set up and a backrest of approx. 40 cm right for your seating height?
- Packed size: Only approx. 8 cm high when folded is practical for suitcases, rucksacks and the boot.
- Carrying comfort: A carrying strap makes the walk to the beach easier, also when you want your hands free.
- Colour: The SunBeachy is available in olive or beige. You choose the colour directly on the product page.
- Intended use: Think about where you will use it most: beach, pool, garden or holiday.
Packing list for a day by the water
A short list helps keep the day relaxed. Besides the headrest, you will usually want a large towel, sun protection for your skin, enough water and a bag for small items. Because the SunBeachy is only approx. 8 cm high when folded and has a carrying strap, it takes up little room and can be carried alongside your bag. Before you set off, check whether your spot offers shade or whether you need a parasol as well, because the sunshade does not replace sun protection for your skin.
