That is the most effective way to increase your shade because yes the cabanas are most effective when the sun is directly overhead, which unfortunately is the time you should not be in the sun! Just Google cabana side walls.

Hi Sandy. There isn't really a way to tilt it although these photos probably accentuate the issue as they are taken in our sub-tropical - tropical winter when the sun is still damaging but spends more of the day lower in the sky and less directly overhead.

We're thinking of getting one of these cabanas. It seems the shade always falls outside the cabana itself. Is there a way to tilt the top like an umbrella? It doesn't seem to protect from any reflected rays, can a wall be attached? Cheers, Sandy

Hi Jono, I've had ours for a few years we use it often and it's still going strong. My understanding was they were Australian owned, designed and made at that time.

I'm in Coolum Qld, looking to buy one now but seems to be lotsa bad press since things moved to China..
Best Regards
Jono 🤙
