Can you put up those 8 or 10 ft. canopies at Lifeguard Beach. a lot of places don't let you anymore. but if you want to stay all day, it is nice to put one up at the back of the beach to have a place to sit in the shade and watch the waves.

Yes. Pop up canopies are allowed. Great spot for families.
