The thing about umbrellas is that if they are portable they are built for rain, if they are primarily for shading they are large and not portable.
I’m not sure what the solution is but neither seem to be a good fit for sitting in a park.

An RV with a retractable shade might be large and portable-ish, but RV ownership/maintenance is complicated by the current situation.
Are you thinking more Dolores Park, though? Or the big parks?
Ya, this is me setting up a perch for a 2-3 weeks in my grandparents backyard. Far too much work for a park.
Search for “uv umbrella” to find them.
