The standard DD Tarp 3x3 is the most popular for general UK camping. Choose the UV50 Plus if you camp in hot climates, travel to tropical regions, or want UV protection during summer camping and beach trips.


DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Protection Blocks 98% of UVA and UVB Rays

The UV50 Plus fabric treatment blocks over 98% of UVA and UVB rays that cause sunburn, skin damage, and long-term health risks from prolonged sun exposure. This protection lets you relax underneath the tarp in hot, sunny climates without worrying about harmful UV radiation reaching you through the fabric.

Standard camping tarps without UV protection allow UV rays to pass through the fabric, particularly when the sun is directly overhead. The UV50 Plus treatment in this tarp provides the same level of sun protection as high-quality sunscreen, making it suitable for extended periods in direct sunlight. This matters most in tropical regions, high altitude locations where UV intensity increases, and summer camping where you spend hours under the tarp during the hottest parts of the day.


DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus for Summer Camping and Hot Climate Travel

The UV50 Plus tarp suits summer camping in UK when you want shade from intense sun during heatwaves or extended sunny periods. The UV protection prevents the tarp from degrading as quickly under constant sun exposure compared to standard tarps, extending the tarp's lifespan when used regularly in sunny conditions.

For tropical hammock camping trips, the UV50 Plus provides essential sun protection during the day while maintaining waterproof performance for tropical rainstorms. The tarp works well as a beachside shelter between swims, protecting you from sun exposure while you rest. The UV protection also makes this tarp suitable as a garden awning or vehicle shelter in sunny climates where standard tarps degrade quickly from UV exposure.


DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Bancha Green Colour for Hot Climates

The Bancha Green colour is a light green shade that reflects more sunlight than darker colours like Olive Green or Forest Green. This lighter colour helps keep the area underneath the tarp cooler in hot weather by reflecting solar radiation rather than absorbing it. Dark colours absorb heat and make the sheltered area warmer, which works against you in hot climates.

The Bancha Green shade blends reasonably well with tropical vegetation and summer foliage while providing the heat-reflecting benefits of a lighter colour. This colour only comes on the UV50 Plus version, as it is specifically chosen for hot climate use rather than UK woodland camouflage.


DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Waterproof for Rain and Sun Protection

The UV50 Plus tarp maintains the same 3000mm waterproof PU coating and taped seams as other DD tarps, providing full waterproof protection alongside the UV blocking treatment. This dual protection makes the tarp suitable for tropical climates where you need shelter from both intense sun and heavy rainstorms.

The UV protective treatment does not compromise the waterproof performance. The tarp handles tropical downpours and prolonged rain as effectively as standard DD tarps while providing the additional benefit of UV protection during sunny periods. This makes the UV50 Plus particularly useful for tropical travel where weather alternates between intense sun and heavy rain throughout the day.

When to Choose DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Over Standard 3x3

Choose the UV50 Plus if you regularly camp in hot climates, travel to tropical regions, or do summer camping where UV protection matters. The UV blocking treatment prevents skin damage during extended periods under the tarp in direct sunlight, making it safer for all-day use as a sun shelter.

The UV50 Plus also suits situations where the tarp will be set up for extended periods in sunny conditions, such as semi-permanent garden shelters or vehicle awnings in hot climates. The UV protection extends the tarp's lifespan by preventing fabric degradation from constant sun exposure, making it more durable than standard tarps in sunny environments.

For UK camping in typical mixed weather conditions, the standard 3x3 provides adequate performance at lower cost with more colour options. The UV50 Plus justifies its higher price mainly for hot climate use, tropical travel, or situations where UV protection provides significant health or durability benefits.


DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Complementary Equipment

Pair this tarp with hammock suspension accessories and hammocks for tropical hammock camping setups. For hot weather camping, lightweight hammock quilts provide comfort without excessive insulation.


DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Limitations to Consider

The UV50 Plus only comes in Bancha Green colour, limiting your choice if you prefer darker woodland colours or camouflage patterns. The UV protection adds cost compared to the standard 3x3, making it more expensive for a feature you may not need if you mainly camp in typical UK weather with limited sun exposure.

The lighter Bancha Green colour shows dirt more easily than darker colours like Olive Green or Forest Green, requiring more frequent cleaning to maintain appearance. The UV protection is most beneficial in hot climates and tropical regions - for UK camping in typical mixed weather, the standard 3x3 provides adequate performance without the UV treatment premium.


DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Care and Maintenance

Clean the tarp regularly when used in sunny conditions, as the lighter Bancha Green colour shows dirt more readily than darker colours. Rinse with clean water and allow to dry completely before storing. The UV protective treatment maintains effectiveness over the tarp's lifetime with proper care.

Store the tarp out of direct sunlight when not in use, even though it has UV protection. While the UV50 Plus treatment protects the fabric during use, storing the tarp in a cool, dry place away from sunlight extends its overall lifespan. Inspect the fabric periodically for any signs of UV degradation, though the protective treatment significantly slows this process compared to untreated tarps.

DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Frequently Asked Questions

What does UV50 Plus protection mean?

UV50 Plus means the fabric blocks over 98% of UVA and UVB rays that cause sunburn and skin damage. This provides the same level of sun protection as high-quality sunscreen, making it safe to spend extended periods under the tarp in direct sunlight.

Do I need UV protection for UK camping?

For typical UK camping in mixed weather, the standard 3x3 provides adequate performance. UV protection becomes valuable during UK summer heatwaves, extended sunny periods, or if you camp at high altitudes where UV intensity increases. The UV50 Plus is most beneficial for tropical travel and hot climate camping.

Does the UV protection affect waterproof performance?

No, the UV50 Plus tarp maintains the same 3000mm waterproof rating and taped seams as other DD tarps. The UV protective treatment does not compromise waterproof performance, making it suitable for tropical climates where you need protection from both sun and rain.

Why is the UV50 Plus only available in Bancha Green?

The Bancha Green colour is specifically chosen for hot climate use because lighter colours reflect more sunlight and keep the sheltered area cooler. Darker colours absorb heat, which works against you in hot weather. DD Hammocks offers this tarp in one colour optimized for its intended use in sunny conditions.

Will the UV protection wear off over time?

The UV50 Plus treatment is integrated into the fabric during manufacturing and maintains effectiveness over the tarp's lifetime with proper care. Store the tarp out of direct sunlight when not in use to extend its overall lifespan, though the UV treatment significantly slows degradation compared to untreated tarps.

Can I use the UV50 Plus for winter camping?

Yes, the UV50 Plus works for winter camping and provides the same waterproof performance as other DD tarps. However, the lighter Bancha Green colour and UV protection features are optimized for hot climate use, so the standard 3x3 in darker colours may be more practical for UK winter camping.

Is the UV50 Plus suitable as a permanent garden shelter?

The UV protection makes this tarp more suitable for semi-permanent setups in sunny locations compared to standard tarps. The UV treatment prevents fabric degradation from constant sun exposure, extending the tarp's lifespan when used as a garden awning or vehicle shelter in hot climates.

Does the UV50 Plus weigh the same as the standard 3x3?

Yes, both weigh 790g excluding pegs and guy lines. The UV protective treatment does not add significant weight to the tarp, making it equally suitable for backpacking and lightweight camping as the standard version.

Can I use the UV50 Plus for beach camping?

Yes, the UV50 Plus works well for beach camping and beachside shelters. The UV protection prevents skin damage during extended periods in direct sun, and the waterproof coating handles unexpected rain. The lighter Bancha Green colour reflects heat better than darker colours in beach environments.

Not durable at all.
Not durable. My cocker spaniel puppy shredded the ropes in no time. They're cute, and for that I'd give a star, but cute does not support the point of having it. Would not recommend and would not buy again.

For Small Dogs
Wish it was longer. It would be good for very small dogs. I think medium dogs or larger need a longer toy.

My dog's favorite toy* (*see durability warnings*)
Style: Variety Pack - Large (3-pack)
This is a plush toy, so *if your dog is a destroyer of things, it'll destroy this toy easily/instantly* & if they're not destroyed right away, I'd definitely expect them to be destroyed eventually just given the type of toy it is- plus much of that depends on the way your dog plays. That said, this plush, multiple squeaker toy has held up really well for the amount of use it gets in our home. Because it contains 3 separate squeakers in it, these toys have been like heaven for my 3 year old, male, Toy Fox Terrier to play with- he freaks out when we squeeze more than 1 squeaker at the same time & I don't do all 3 at once bc I think his head might actually explode LoL 😋! Seriously, ever since he's grown out of puppy-hood, he's much less destructive with his toys now, so we are able to buy toys like these for him, have him go nuts freaking out on them & have them hold up pretty well/for a while before it's time for a replacement, yet since they're not very expensive, it's not terribly hard to replace them if needed (he's still using the last toy in the original 3 pack we got for him). It's great for fetching via a "flinging" motion (they're not heavy enough to actually throw) if you have a smaller dog who doesn't cover much distance too readily, but the best part of this toy is the elongated design of it, because it makes for a perfect "tug of war" type of playtime toy with my little buddy (tugging is a behavior which you may or may not want to encourage your dog to do depending on its disposition). Since my dog thankfully isn't really destructive & doesn't have issues releasing a toy from a tugging interaction anymore, these items have held up pretty well for a plush type toy, but again, if you own a dog known for destroying their toys, or anything else for that matter, these probably aren't going to work out well for you. Given they're pretty cheap to replace, for a throw ready, tug toy which has 3 different places for a dog to chomp on to make it squeak, they've turned out to be perfect for our smaller sized pup & have become a favorite toy of my little guy which he's always ready to play with, at any time, with anyone- he's got it ready to go a lot of the time when we get back home to him after being out. Again, you'll need to go with Kong or something similarly durable if your dog destroys things or is still a puppy who doesn't know better, but for an average amount of wear & tear they've held up really well while remaining at the top of my dog's favorite toy list. So recommended for sure, but just know if you've got a chewy character on your hands, despite all the fun they'd have with these, I'd get a more durable toy instead of this one as these plush toys, while good quality, will not hold up to prolonged abuse (as is the case with most plush toys sold). However, for an "average destruction" level dog, it seems well enough made to last a decent amount of time & they're a source of an enjoyable playtime for our dog & therefore for us as his owners as well! Definitely recommend for it's features, like 3 different squeakers, it's great design for a tugging style of play & it's overall good durability for a plush style toy. 👍

Better than I expected!
Style: Variety Pack - Large (3-pack)
I have two pitbulls who can destroy any toy! My youngest one likes to chew on my fluffy slippers. She doesn't hurt them, just chews on the fur. I give her a lot of heck for this but she has an affinity for them. I decided to buy her a stuffed dog toy and she loved it! She proudly carried it with her everywhere and would throw it up in the air and catch it. She was as happy as she could be. The problem was that after a few days, my 5-year-old pittie wanted to get in on the action and they turned it into a tug of war. Five minutes later it was in pieces on the floor. I decided to see if there was such a thing as a cloth toy for aggressive chewers. I found these! They weren't that expensive, so I thought, "what the heck", I'll give them a try! They arrived the next day! I took two out of the pack and within two or three days they had killed the squeakers in both of them, and I was thankful! The squeaking was loud and they could not get enough of it. There were three squeakers in each toy! After the squeakers were gone, they seemed to lose interest. So I started doing tug of war with them. Pretty soon they were doing it with each other. I didn't expect them to last a day! However, it has been almost a month and they are still pretty much intact. I mean these dogs are for real and they pull as hard as they can and they still have not ripped them apart. And it's great exercise! There are a few small holes in them but they are not getting bigger. I guess that is how they got the squeakers out! Even the eyes on these toys are still there. I put the third one away for when these two are demolished, but I think I will order another pack of three. That will give me four all together! That should keep them busy for quite a while! I just want everyone to know that I am pretty limited with my reviews. I don't bother unless I really have something to say, so you can totally believe what I am saying! I don't think you will be upset with this purchase, unless you don't like saliva soaked toys and/or your dog is prone to swallowing it's toys. It is very hard for me to imagine a dog swallowing one of these. From the top of their heads to the tip of their tails they are over a foot long!
