With international travel still a no-go for many of us, packing up the car for a road trip is a popular alternative. And if you want to get back to nature, or off the beaten track, you can't beat the freedom a camping holiday gives you – let alone how much cheaper it is than a hotel.
If you're new to camping trips or in serious need of some new kit, the best Prime Day deals this year include some great prices on outdoor equipment, including some top tents. So much so that we've put together a full list of camping gear for under $270.
Don't forget, these deals only last until 11.59 pm (PT) on Tuesday, June 22 and can sell out before then. So if you see a deal you like, act fast.
