Coleman Camping Tent

Is there a particular brand/type of camping tent that is more sturdy in high winds?

My wife and I go beach camping a lot during the summer. We have a very nice Coleman tent, but it doesn’t handle wind very well. I usually sleep with the side of the tent whacking me in the face most of the night.

A “mountaineering” tent is designed for high mountains and high winds which works OK in freezing temperatures, but may be a bit too stuffy (and damp) in moderate climes. Mountain Hardware makes a few excellent models: http://www.rei.com/product/732212

Stephenson’s Warmlite tents with optional stabilizers can survive in winds up to 160 MPH, according to them. http://www.warmlite.com/tents.htm

Here are some tips for setting up any tent in high winds: http://www.bicycletouring101.com/CampTentHighWinds.htm
