Camping is one of the best summer activities.

Nature, fresh air, and great company - what could be bad?

But if you're going camping, you're going to need the right gear.

We've put a list of the essentials and fun gadgets that will make your camping experience way better.

A pop up tent

Amazon

Unless you want to brave the wild at night, you're going to need a tent.

A pop up tent is a great option as it takes virtually zero effort to set it up (it literally pops up), and only takes a few seconds to fold back.

This tent comes with 4 plastic ground stakes and sand bags on both side panels to keep it in place.
