From playdates to family gatherings, this past year has made parents total pros at doing pretty much everything outdoors! And with summer on the horizon, there’s even more fun to be had in warm weather. But if you’ve ever wrestled with a beach tent (or seen another defeated parent make an attempt!), you know it’s not an easy undertaking. Until now..

The California Beach Co Pop N’ Go portable play yard can be used indoors and outdoors—wherever you need a safe, enclosed spot for your kiddo to play. At only 7.2 pounds, this handy tent is a breeze to transport in the included carrying bag (and means it won’t take up a ton of space when not in use).

Set up is equally simple, thanks to the pop and release technology. The lightweight, reinforced fiberglass frame comes fully assembled and unfolds into a sturdy, spacious tent in seconds. At 59″ inches wide, it’s large enough to fit multiple small children and their favorite toys. Perfect for newborns, babies, toddlers, kids, and even your furry family members… the safety lock keeps the tent securely in place. An included UV sunshade blocks the sun’s harmful rays, creating a shaded hangout for your tot when you’re spending time outside.

From the backyard to the beach, the playroom to grandma’s house… this tent is a must-have for anywhere you want to create a happy home base.

  • The pop n go is a great safe place for your baby to play while out in public. We have used this at the beach, in our backyard, and at the park. It provides shade for your baby and plenty of play space May 28, 2023

  • I do love that this is easy to put up, but it’s a task to get down. Not as easy as they show in the videos! I wish it came with a mat and that it wasn’t an extra add-on. Apr 30, 2023

  • Our son LOVES this thing. He loves being outside, so this was perfect for camping for us. Apr 26, 2023

  • So easy to set up and take down. Big enough to crawl in and hang out with the kiddos. Perfect for the beach, camping or even just to hang out at the park. Great ventilation and SPF cover. Apr 24, 2023

  • Absolute must have! This thing is amazing! Great for the beach, park, backyard or porch! Great ventilation, spf cover, easy and light to carry. Gives your little ones a place to play that is safe! Apr 03, 2023

  • We loved this at the beach! Mar 30, 2023

  • Easy to pop up & take down one handed. Great for travel or in the back yard. plenty of space for kids to play, screen all around for great ventilation. Sun canopy was perfect for UV protection. Love! Mar 10, 2023

    This thing is Amazing! So light and easy to set up/take down. The sunshade provides adequate protection and my buns love playing in it. It’s so easy and practical to travel with. Jan 16, 2023

  • My kids love it, but there are some issues. It has stakes, but these don’t work well for sand. Older toddlers can collapse the sides to get out and the locking mechanism eventually wears out. Dec 21, 2022

  • I don't end up using it as much as I thought. Easy to open and close though. Dec 09, 2022

  • I really wanted to love this but I wish I had splurged on something with a better canopy and that could fit an adult comfortably too. I also find it really difficult to set up. Aug 26, 2022

    Love this! Perfect to bring to the beach and keep baby out of the sun and keep bugs away. I found it a little tricky to open/close but worth it. Aug 22, 2022

  • I can not say enough good things about this play yard. Perfect for the beach or park. Pops open and closes super easy. Compact and easy for moms to carry on their shoulder. An absolute must have! Aug 20, 2022

  • Best thing ever! Lots of space inside! Perfect for your little to get away from the sun, to nap inside and for a play area. Nice with netting to keep bugs out Jun 05, 2022

  • Absolutely love. I love using this for outside. The top “umbrella” is amazing for shading baby, and letting him/her be outside with you in a protected from the sun way. May 18, 2022

  • Absolutely love this play yard! It is so easy to setup and disassemble. I also purchased the play mat and cover and the mat cover is super soft and comfortable! May 15, 2022

  • The best travel play yard!! So easy to assemble! Apr 12, 2022

  • Yes! Get it. So easy to set up and breakdown. I used it when she was very little and I could sit inside and breast feed her. Comes with a sunshade. This is way better than trying to set up a pop up. Mar 27, 2022

    Wow! This pack and play is the best. Pops up so fast and easy and is super light weight. Buy the mattress for it otherwise there is no cushion for the floor. I recommend this to all my friends! Mar 02, 2022

    This is incredible: easy to set up, light weight, and great to use inside and out! Easy to take along for a day at the park or the beach; or just a space in the house to play while you check emails! Jan 12, 2022

  • This thing is pretty awesome. We used it in our living room before my daughter could crawl. I don't think it's travel friendly, especially if you're using the mattress. It takes a while to break down. Dec 14, 2021

  • We used this a lot last summer and it will be coming to FL with us as well. The only thing I do not like is that the sun shade/top cover is not attached. It would be super handy if it was attached. Dec 14, 2021

  • Looks like a lot of fun! !" Nov 05, 2021

  • This is THE BEST thing ever! So light weight and easy to pack, carry, and set up. It looks nice and there's always a sale going on. I'd buy this over a Pack and Play any day. Oct 10, 2021

  • Great for outdoors - park / beach. Wish the shade was longer on one side as the sun can still get in. Easy to transport and pop up/down. Definitely a luxury item rather than essential! Oct 06, 2021

  • I was really excited to get this. It is super easy to setup and take down. To me the only down side to it is bugs can still get in when the cover is on, but overall it’s nice to have for outdoors. Aug 14, 2021

  • Best Baby Product I Own! We use this at the beach, parties, traveling. It is versatile and lightweight. Opens and closes easily. Cons - Expensive, Mattress and covers are sold separately. Aug 14, 2021

    Great beach tent or play tent! Only downside is that the sunshade should have an option to be lower (longer) on one side so it can be moved with the sun. Aug 06, 2021
