Give the gift of adventure

Nothing beats the joy of a getaway! A Reflections Holidays gift card is the perfect way to treat someone to a relaxing break. They can use it to book a stay at one of the beautiful parks across Australia, from serene beachfront locations to lush countryside retreats. It’s a gift that’ll leave them with memories they’ll treasure.

Surf’s up!

For those who love the ocean as much as the great outdoors, Let’s Go Surfing classes are a winner. Perfect for beginners or those keen to refine their skills, these lessons are available at iconic Aussie beaches. It’s a fun way to embrace summer and make the most of Australia’s stunning coastline.

Gadgets to light up their travels

Campers love a gadget, especially ones that make life easier or more fun. Popular camping gadgets include portable BBQ grills and compact cooking sets that make whipping up a feast under the stars a breeze. Bluetooth speakers are another must-have, bringing your favourite tunes to the campsite for added atmosphere.

And for those who love staying connected, solar-powered chargers keep your devices juiced up without needing an outlet. Add in clever tools like collapsible water bottles, LED lanterns with USB ports, and multi-tools that do everything from opening cans to tightening screws, and you’ve got the ultimate camping kit to make your trip both comfortable and fun.

For coffee lovers, a portable coffee maker is an absolute game-changer. Brands like AeroPress or Wacaco make lightweight, travel-friendly models that deliver barista-quality brews wherever you are. They’ll never have to settle for instant coffee again!

Memories in the making

Encourage your favourite campers to document their adventures with a travel journal. They can jot down highlights, sketch scenes, or even stick in photos and ticket stubs. It’s a simple but meaningful way to help them remember every special moment.

Memberships for outdoor fun

Memberships make fantastic gifts that keep on giving. A Junior OzFishers membership is perfect for kids or families who love fishing. It comes with educational resources and activities, making it ideal for encouraging eco-conscious outdoor fun.

For fans of the big game, Giants or Knights memberships are an awesome way to combine their love of the outdoors with their passion for sport. It’s also a great excuse to plan trips around game days!

Camping games the whole crew can get a kick out of

When it comes to kids, think fun and practical. Camping games like Kubb, bocce, or frisbee sets are perfect for keeping them entertained at the campsite. For something extra cool, consider an underwater camera for capturing their snorkelling adventures. These are available at stores like Big W and BCF and make for hours of fun both in and out of the water.

The gift of a full tummy

Food always brings people together, especially around the campfire. Consider gifting a portable BBQ, camping cookware, or even a pack of gourmet camping snacks. Throw in a bag of marshmallows for roasting, and you’ve got a gift that’s both thoughtful and delicious. Plus, we got you covered with some tasty camping recipes, sure to please even the fussiest camper.

Extra comforts for the campsite

Elevate their camping experience with a few creature comforts. Compact hammocks, inflatable loungers, or even a set of lightweight camping chairs make fantastic gifts. They’re lightweight and don't take up precious packing space, yet luxurious. Yep, a chance to relax in style!

Day trip time

Another top pick? An annual parks pass to Reflections Holidays Country NSW parks. This pass offers access to stunning destinations, but remember, they’ll need to call the park to book. Talk about a ticket to endless adventures!

Wrap it up with style

For a personal touch, consider wrapping your gifts in reusable fabric wraps or a dry bag that doubles as extra camping gear. It’s an eco-friendly option that’ll impress any outdoor enthusiast.

This Christmas, give the gift of adventure, comfort, and fun. Whether it’s a Reflections Holidays getaway, a handy gadget, or a family game, these thoughtful ideas are sure to make every camper or caravanner's festive season unforgettable.

As always, happy travelling and Merry Christmas.
