While a portable beach changing room may seem to have just on primary purpose, there are in fact, a variety of uses for them. For example, it can also be used when camping out in the woods, on a small boat, at a pool party or at a photo shoot where there is very little privacy. If this is an item that will only get occasional use, look for the less expensive models. They do the job fine, and they tend to be lighter and more portable than the fancier models.

We often see it at the beach: someone holding up a towel, trying to hide a friend or relative from view as they awkwardly change into their bathing suit. If trips to the lake or ocean are rare for you, then using this method may be the way to go, however uncomfortable. But if you are a frequent camper or beach goer, then a pop up changing room may be worthwhile. Most are easy to set up.
