Now that we’re officially into spring, we’re celebrating by snagging those elusive campsite reservations. Naturally, Amazon’s version of celebrating is holding a massive sale — and the 2026 Big Spring Sale could prove quite beneficial to your upcoming outdoor plans.

Amazon sales tend to bring significant discounts to some of our favorite outdoor items like Ninja coolers, portable power stations, Owala bottles, Solo Stoves, and outdoor-ready Bluetooth speakers. If you have some well-loved outdoor gear that deserves to retire, this is a smart week to upgrade.
The Amazon spring sale started on March 25 and runs through March 31. Here are some of the best Amazon Big Spring Sale outdoor deals that we’ve found so far:

If your campsite could use some extra power, consider the major upgrade to a portable power station. The Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 is well worth inviting along on your weekend in the outdoors — and its sale price has dropped by an extra $61 since we caught it on sale ahead of the spring sale’s official kickoff.
Anker went super lightweight with this model and it comes in at just under 25 pounds, making it easy to pack and carry around the campsite. There’s also the quick recharging capability. Just 49 minutes of AC wall charging will get the Solix C1000 Gen 2 up to 100 percent charged. It’ll keep phones and tablets charged up, as well as giving you the ability to hang fairy lights and even pack along the air fryer.

Best outdoor speaker deal
JBL Charge 6
$159.95 at Amazon
Save $40 (regular price $199.95)
Why we like it
Every camping adventure deserves some tunes. In Mashable’s review of the best portable Bluetooth speakers, the JBL Charge 6 earns top marks as the best for most people. Its IP68 water- and dust-proof rating makes it especially worthy of adventure, and the battery can give it up to 28 hours of playtime. JBL also added a sturdy handle strap for easier transportation. Plus, the speaker doubles as a portable charger, so you can keep your phone from going dead while also hosting a dance party.
Best cooler deal
Ninja FrostVault Cooler (30 quart)
$149.99 at Amazon
Save $50 (regular price $199.99)
Why we like it
Ninja makes some of our favorite kitchen appliances to use at home, but the brand is also a go-to for keeping food chilled at the campground. The 30-quart Ninja FrostVault Cooler can hold 26 cans while loaded up with 15 pounds of ice or 48 cans with no ice. The handles and lockable latch make this model especially user-friendly. Ninja also added a dry-zone drawer to the design of the FrostVault, which is the perfect place to store road-trip snacks with the assurance they won’t end up getting squished or soggy.
