As we all continue to navigate life during a pandemic, our safe summer plans are more often than not taking place outside—meaning there's never been a better time to make use of outdoor folding chairs. Whether you’re spending your Saturdays socially distancing on a beach, by the pool, in your neighborhood garden, or even in your own backyard, you can easily upgrade your staycation by investing in a comfortable place to rest. Below, we've rounded up 11 of the best outdoor folding chairs to tote around this summer, whether you’re looking for a retro, lightweight lawn chair, a beach lounger to stretch out on, or a fold-up camping chair for roadside stops where you can take in the view.

It only takes a few park days sprawled out on a blanket to realize you'd be much more comfortable just slightly above the grass (and with a nice backrest to boot). Sunflow's compact lounge chair is a favorite—while it takes a try or two to get the hang of unfolding it (follow the photo directions in and on the box), it's extremely comfortable, and reclines to four different positions. Straps connect to the armrests so you can carry the chair like a backpack and at just under 10 pounds, it's not a chore to bring with you. For those always on the look-out for shade, snag a Sun Shade too; it pops on to the top of the chair for instant cover.
