Should you put a tarp under your tent?

Putting some sort of ground cover or tarp under your tent is essential for the durability of your tent and to keep it warm and dry. If the tarp extends too far, even dew will run down the tent walls and collect under your tent. When camping at the beach, don’t put a tarp under the tent, but rather inside the tent.

Why do tents get wet inside?

What causes condensation in tents? Air temperature in the tent can become warm and humid from people, heaters, and a lack of ventilation. When the warm air inside the tent hits the relatively cool fabric of the tent, the moisture condenses into liquid form.
