Sunscreen Checklist for Camping, Fishing and 4WD Trips
Plan portable and campsite sun protection for long days away from home.
Pack a personal tube
Keep a 100g tube in each day pack or tackle bag.
Add a shared pump
A 1kg pump can live at the camp kitchen or vehicle setup.
Reapply after water
Swimming, sweat and towelling off all reduce cover. Reapply as directed on the label.
Store it correctly
Keep sunscreen cool, dry and protected from direct heat according to the label.
Before you leave
Check expiry dates, product labels, pump operation and how much sunscreen your group is likely to use. Pack shade, hats, long sleeves and sunglasses as well.
At camp
Create one visible application point and keep a portable tube with anyone leaving the campsite for fishing, hiking, paddling or 4WD trips.
