Celebrate National Hammock Day

Happy National Hammock Day

Set up in the shade and relax this summer! We celebrate National Hammock Day every July 22, and it's the perfect excuse to get out and let your worries float away in the breeze.

Whether you're flying solo or traveling as a team, we've got some great reasons for you to love hammocks.

  1. Number one, hammocks are comfortable. It's one thing to sit in a chair, but free-floating in the air is a completely different experience. Feel the gentle zephyrs as you sway back and forth, suspended in midair. Relax and focus on nature, read a good book, or just do...nothing.
  2. If you're in a group, hammocking offers more than just fun. It's a way to build relationships, both with old friends and new acquaintances. Gather a group and head to the forest for a rustic retreat. Try some of our campfire recipes, bring a guitar, and make it day of fun and fellowship. If you're craving the waves, head to the coast and set up in the sun, where you can hang out and embrace the beach life.
  3. Looking for artistic inspiration? A hammock may just be your best friend. Gather your tools, then travel deep into nature and set up in the great outdoors. Use your surroundings as inspiration, looking at the shapes and considering the colors as you breathe in the rejuvenating fresh air.

No matter how you celebrate, one thing is certain: a hammock makes everything better.

ENO Hammock

Buying a Hammock

With the rise in popularity, there are a lot of hammocks out there and you need one that checks all the boxes. Is it sturdy? Lightweight? Easy to set up? Do I like the color? Do I like the fabric? Is it safe? Is it big enough?

With so many questions, the process of buying a hammock can seem overwhelming. We recommend a few of our favorites are by ENO that include the  SingleNest and DoubleNest hammocks.

Most hammocks have a lightweight design that folds to fit inside the included travel pack. Simple and convenient suspension systems are available for purchase in a variety of colors and types, ensuring that you'll always be prepared. There are also a variety of colors available so you have plenty to choose from to fit your personality.

So grab your hammock and venture out behind the house or above the mountain to celebrate National Hammock Day your way!
