The advantages of a camping holiday begin with adventure. A family can go wherever they want and camp there for as long as they have. From a camping base, a family can take a nature walk and see nature in its true habitat. They can also head out to big lakes to fish or swim, and if they find an adventure park they can zip line around the trees as fast as they can, which is fun for everyone.
However, this is also where the downsides start, because some people like the routine they have and won’t want it to get upset by living in a tent for a week or two. Sometimes there are no showers and people will need to use a solar shower, which is not a problem for most, but some people may feel self-conscious about their body using one. Restrooms are another major disadvantage if a campground does not have the facilities provided, as people will have to go and dig a hole to use, or use a communal one, which many consider worse.
For others, the freedom of being outdoors outweighs all the downsides associated with home comforts, like showering and using the bathroom. They also enjoy not being able to use their mobile phones as they are an invasion that can ruin a vacation if someone is constantly using them. While camping, people will also be away from the thick smog of the city, something many consider unhealthy. The outdoors is nothing but fresh air, and most people find this to be a great advantage of camping holidays.
To break it down into a list of top pros and cons, here’s what most people think of camping.

In conclusion, the pros and cons of camping seem to be entirely opinion-based. What people need to realize is that camping can be a lot of fun as long as everyone is involved in having fun, because once someone isn’t having fun, the trip is ruined. If worst comes to worst, building a big fire and staying up late at night is something everyone enjoys doing.
