Camping gear deals abound during Amazon's Prime Early Access Sale. 

Ready to plan your next off-the-grid trip? Campers have a slew of deals to choose from as Amazon’s Prime Early Access Sale gets underway. 

Popular outdoor retailers including Coleman, Klymit, BioLite and more are offering major discounts on essential products from tents to sleeping bags, lanterns and more. In some cases, the savings is more than 50% off. 

Popular outfitter Coleman, for example, has great deals on tents during the October sale, including a six-person Dome Tent that only takes 15 minutes to set up. It's 59% off at $95 (compared to $230) and will fit two queen-sized air mattresses, according to the retailer.

A classic lantern from Coleman also caught our eye. With 390 lumens, this battery-powered piece of gear can run for almost 300 hours on the lowest setting; and right now, it’s nearly 50% off!

You’ll need sleeping bags inside that tent, and Klymit is one of the more reputable retailers offering major deals. Its oversized KSB 0°F X-Large is nearly 40% off at $211 and is made for cold-weather camping. 

Add extra comfort to sleeping under the stars with a Powerlix pad. It’s labeled as “Amazon’s Choice” for good ratings and availability to ship immediately; the brand’s nylon hexagonal mattress is almost 60% off during the sale at just $26.

Don’t forget to hydrate! Popular water bottle brand Hydro Flask has major deals on its sleek vessels during the sale. Save 30% on a wide-mouth version that comes with a straw, getting you the 40 oz. container for just $38 instead of $55. 

You can also take your hydration to the next level with LifeStraw’s water filtration systems, which make it so that you can drink clean H20 no matter where you are. The brand’s personal water filter is currently 33% off for just $10, compared to $15. 

Other great deals can be found thanks to popular cooler company Igloo. Keep your food and drinks cold with the BMX 25, a 25-quart cooler that comes with “Cool Riser Technology,” defined by the brand as “elevated design” that “improves cooling performance.”

You might also be interested in sales from major retailer Stanley, including a vacuum-insulated thermos for coffee, hot chocolate, and the like. It’s about 30% at $29 and fits about 1 quart of liquid. 

Known for its stoves, popular gear company BioLite also creates high-quality headlamps. You can get a rechargeable, 330-lumen version for 40% off on Amazon right now, for just $36 as opposed to $60.

Adventurers among us can appreciate the art of the inflatable kayak, and there’s savings to be found there, too. Amazon’s No. 1 best-seller in touring kayaks, the Intext Explorer K2, is just $89, compared to $147. This two-person vessel is about 10 feet long and made for smaller lakes and calm rivers. A carry bag comes equipped with a pump and two paddles, so you can blow it up wherever you go. 

Speaking of adventure, you can chop your own wood with a discounted Gerber Gear hatchet, now 44% off at just $25. A rubber handle is paired with a tall blade, and comes with a nylon cover for toting around the woods. 

We’re taking Amazon’s word for it when it says this shower bag is the No. 1 best-seller in camping showers. If you leave this KIPIDA solar shower bag out in the sun, it’ll heat up to 5 gallons of water for a quick rinse.

Listed at more than 50% off, ThruNite’s LED flashlight is a steal at $24. Its super compact size at just 6 inches long means it can easily fit in your pocket.

The No. 1 best-seller in outdoor generators, this Jackery portable power station is 40% off at $210. It’s about 7 lbs. and “takes only 2 hours to recharge 80% battery of the power station through the wall outlet and 60W PD USB-C port simultaneously,” according to the retailer.

Because we know you’ll want to keep busy as day turns to night, grab this Jenga game for fun by the campfire. It’s 41% off at just $10.

And finally, safety first! This 71-piece First Aid Kit comes with an emergency blanket, bandages and pads, scissors, tweezers, and more. It’s currently nearly 40% off at $14.
