Your Camping List For
Camping At The Outer Banks

A camping list for packing your next camping trip?

I have found that every successful camping trip to the Outer Banks starts with a camping list of what to take.

How many times do we get to our favorite campground and realize we left something at home, like the Coleman camp stove or your fishing poles, a true tragedy in my opinion. Well maybe not, but it would be inconvenient having to go and purchase what you need.

To try and avoid these most unfortunate circumstances, I have found a good list has been a great help with remembering those things you should have and also all the camping supplies that help make any camping vacation more of a pleasure.

I can't believe everything on our list fit in the car

I would like to give you a list of camping supplies and equipment that I have found are essentials for a fun and pleasant vacation.
