Abstract

A beach lounge which may be folded up to form a carrying case with two separate compartments and a handle. The lounge includes two pairs of identically formed shell members pivotally connected in series to one another. The shell members are vented and have notches for gripping a towel cover to the lounge. A shade/support assembly may be adjusted to support the upper two shells in various positions to provide a frame for draping a towel to provide shade and to provide a handle when the lounge is folded into the carrying case position.
