I'm looking for a German translation of this type of chair, that can be found on the northern French beaches. We call them "Chaises à capuchon", where chaise is "chair" and capuchon would be "hood" or "cap".
I couldn't find that word used in German on the Internet, an approximate realistic translation would be highly appreciated.
der Strandkorb
The literal translation is beach basket — which should be pretty obvious if you look at it, and where it is usually found. They are extremely common on beaches on the North Sea in Germany, where weather and wind are usually even worse than on northern French beaches.
In German that is a Strandkorb.
A two-part hooded chair, traditionally made of wicker, that provides shelter from wind and sand and is a common beach accessoire on both the German North Sea and Baltic Sea beaches. Typically they are available for rent there, as they are too unwieldy to lug around.
