Essential

There are quite a lot of adventurous souls out there who want to explore the beauty of nature, wildlife, and mesmerizing sunsets. One of the best ways to do this is to go camping.

Camping remains a popular pastime for many, especially in the UAE, allowing the visitors to enjoy to the fullest while staying in nature camps. Though that may sound like a weekend getaway, there are some quick guidelines that you may need when packing up your essentials.

Camp Site

The city’s municipality clearly tells all those with nature camps in Dubai, to avoid campsites that fall in low areas like stream valleys or next to a cliff. This saves the campers from any potential natural hazards.

In addition to this, campers should set up their cooking stations away from the tents. This serves as a safe distance from a wood fire, fuel depots, generators, and electricity poles.

Moreover, campers are also advised to stay away from muddy areas. This reduces the possibility of coming in contact with any infestations like insects, ants, scorpions, etc.

Tent Specifications

As a camper, make sure that the tent is made from a non-flammable and non-absorbent material, with essential holes that allow proper ventilation.

Also, the tents should be properly set up, so as not to fall or fly away during strong winds. The ropes should be kept at a safe length so the people do not trip or fall over.

Along with this, make sure you have all the camping equipment with you. these include:

  • Tent
  • Sleeping bags and sheets
  • Blow-up mattress and pillows
  • Firewood and Camp chairs
  • Barbeque set and tin foils
  • Extra batteries, Map and GPS
  • Water, Torch, Fire Extinguisher

Fires are a common outbreak on a campsite. One small mistake and fire can encapsulate everyone. However, campers following the below-mentioned practices can avoid the possibility of a fire.

  • Keep the light sources and lanterns at a safe distance of 50 centimeters away from the tent
  • Do not use any heated equipment, like coal, inside the tent

Things to Consider

People go camping all the time. Sometimes they hire camping services, while at others they do it on their own. This can be some summer fun or a part of the birthday party package Dubai. regardless of what it is, make sure you are not venturing into someone’s private property and seek prior consent.

Also, make sure that your car is fully serviced and in good condition. The air pressure, fluid levels, and moving parts are working perfectly well to take you to the camping site safely.

Cleaning up After Yourself

Once you are done camping, make sure you clean your area before leaving. This means you are able to repack all the leftover food, and properly dispose of the trash.

Very recently, Dubai Municipality has begun implementing a comprehensive cleaning program to ensure that the mountains and deserts are kept clean at all times. 

As a camper, one can bring along a large trash bag to throw everything away. This reduces the use of many smaller trash bags. Also, if you had to change the tires or bumpers, make sure you take them away with you. Leaving them behind will make them dangerous for the animals and an unfriendly sight altogether.

Food

Food is one of the most important parts of any camping trip. From planning the barbeque food to bringing foodstuffs along, one should do it properly.

Possible options include loaves of bread, tin foods, cereals, condiments, and dry foods. Since one does not have all the kitchen facilities in a camp, one should avoid bringing uncooked food along and stay away from hassle and trouble.

For packaged foods, there are some options available too. Many food companies, like the ones who host birthday parties, provide travel foods that are good in nutrients and quantity too. This saves the people from preparing it and focusing on other aspects of travel needs.

The Takeaway

Camping definitely sounds interesting, but one should not forget the essentials to take along. Forgetting something behind can cause hassle, something we never look forward to. So make sure you plan ahead and properly execute it all and enjoy nature closely. So make sure you plan ahead and properly execute it all and enjoy nature closely.
