Camping Tents

Camping Gear Supplier Locator

Camping tents are available in a range of sizes, and are rated for various weather and camping experiences, from tents that are perfect for family camping, to more sophisticated tents geared to extreme camping.

Lighted Camping Tent at Night

A camping tent should at least offer a reasonably roomy and secure place to sleep in the great outdoors.  It must be portable, easy to assemble, well ventilated, water resistant, and wind resistant.  Compact, lightweight tents are popular for adventure travel use while larger, double wall tents are more suited to recreational travel with the family car.

A well-designed tent should prevent moisture from getting inside; it should also breathe to prevent condensation from building up inside.  A double wall tent keeps moisture outside by using a rain fly, and it has breathable tent walls.  A single wall tent does both of these things with a single, laminated tent wall that is both waterproof and breathable.
