Best Shower Tents & Awnings in Australia – Privacy While Showering Outdoors!

If you’re reading this, you may have gone out and bought a camping shower, but once you got home you had another thought – where exactly are you going to shower and how will you maintain some privacy?

Portable shower tents or ensuites are the answer! While you can shower out in the open in front of your friends, most of them would agree that you probably shouldn't and that's where the following range of shower tents come in.

They are all built to use in conjunction with a portable shower so you can clean yourself in privacy whilst at the campsite and are all easy to set up and stow away whilst on the move.

Best Shower Tents & Awnings in Australia

OZtrail Pop Up Ensuite Shower/Toilet Tent

OZtrail Pop Up Ensuite Shower or Toilet Tent

Best Budget Shower Tent

Pros
  • Under $100
  • Very lightweight
  • Shower hook and towel holder
  • Freestanding structure
Cons
  • Is a little ‘flimsy’
  • We will need pegs in windy weather
  • Re-packing difficulties

First on our list is the OZtrail Pop Up Ensuite Shower / Toilet tent, which is the most budget-friendly shower tent on this list, but still has many good features. The tent itself is a free-standing one and as such can be placed anywhere you need it and comes with a window for ventilation and silver-coated inner walls for extra privacy.

It has been designed not only as a shower tent but also can be used as a space for a portable camping toilet or even as a changing room for young children. It does have some reported issues with customers, the first being that people have found it too 'flimsy' or unstable, especially in windy areas.

The second issue had by people who still gave it top marks was the re-packing after use, with springs inside the poles being a particular problem. There is a specific way to pack it, with instructional videos on the company’s website, however many people find this frustrating.

Still, given its price point and a majority of happy buyers, this tent is great for those on a budget or for occasional use a few times a year.

Best For Families

Pros
  • Twin rooms with inbuilt divider
  • Integrated floor with drainage
  • Internal storage and towel rail
Cons
  • A little on the heavy side

When it comes to being the best shower tent, the stand-alone Explore Planet Earth Deluxe has got you covered. This tent is sturdy and will hold up free-standing in windy locations, it has an integrated floor with drainage outside so you never have to stand in a puddle of water.

Probably the best thing about this shower tent is that it has two sections inside, so you can set up your shower in one section and use the other for changing or drying afterwards which make it very useful for families who like to get the kids clean all at once.

With all the internal compartments, storage and towel racks, it will almost feel like home.

Customer reviews are all very high, with literally its overall weight being the only negative issue, something that isn't so important if you are carrying it in a vehicle at any rate.

If you like to camp for long periods and like want of the comforts of home or have a bunch of kids – this twin tent is one you should buy.
