Whether it is relaxing on the back of your porch, or backpacking through the woods, hammocks can be a part

of your everyday experience.

Hammocks have been used for thousands of years prior to the invention of the bed for conventional use or for

relaxing. There are many types of hammocks that an individual can choose from.

Mayan Hammocks are loosely weaved with a nylon or polyester material and feature a spreader bar across both ends of the hammock. This spreader bar stretches out the

material to create a bed like structure. This allows for a larger hammock to stretch out on or to have a loved one share a special moment with. These hammocks are very comfortable but require some room to set up. Often, a

Mayan hammock will come in a kit with a hammock swing. This is a setup that will allow you to have the perfect spot for your hammock. Some assembly is usually required and

usually is only minimal. But once you've got it put together, you simply hook the hammock up and start

relaxing!

Brazilian Hammocks are very similar to Mayan hammocks, but they are made up of a different material. Instead of

featuring a weave pattern made up of nylon strings, they are made of a cotton material, more like a sheet. These

tend to be quite colorful and large. People may prefer the Brazilian hammock because full fabric feels more

comfortable to them. Cotton lasts longer in an outdoor setting and is easy to wash. They are large and do not have

a spreader bar so they tend to envelope the user. These are great for one person seeking a sturdy structure to relax

in.

Camping hammocks are very popular among those who follow the Leave No Trace movement of camping and

ultra-light campers. Made of a very light material such as nylon or polyester, these hammocks are smaller and

require less room to set up. Easily tethered of between two trees, these hammocks make for a very relaxing and easy to set up outdoor experience. Some hammocks can

be purchased with or without a rain flap that is set up over the hammock so that they can enjoy a dry night of sleep.

These hammocks are preferred for campers who enjoy sleeping under the stars and having a relaxing night of

sleep on the trip.

Hammocks are popular and relaxing and are the perfect way to end any stressful or exhausting day of work or play.
