About This Tarp

The DD Tarp 3x3 has earned its reputation as the go-to shelter for hammock campers at every level of experience. Its 3m x 3m footprint is sized specifically to provide complete overhead coverage for a standard DD hammock while leaving enough material to pitch the sides low for protection in windier or wetter conditions. With 19 reinforced attachment points it can be configured as an A-frame over the hammock, a diamond for end-to-end protection, a lean-to for day shelter, or a closed ground tarp-tent - giving it genuine versatility across different situations and terrain.

The PU 3000mm coating with taped central seam performs reliably in heavy rain, making it a practical choice across all British and international environments. It works equally well as a standalone ground shelter, tent porch extension, cooking canopy or groundsheet. For those needing extra coverage - particularly users of larger or king-size hammocks - the DD Tarp 3.5x3.5 provides approximately 33% more coverage over this model.
