Where do they sell camping stoves, preferably light weight, and more generally, where do they sell good camping equipment (as opposed to limited selection at Carrefour etc)?

Thanks!

I go to a mixture of all of the above! True Value had some good lamps recently and cheap Weber bbq's. Carrefour is where I got my stove which is quite small and very portable and I also got one that is just basically a gas canister with one burner from there, plus sleeping bag etc.

Ace sometimes have things but they can be more expensive - I price matched bbq's with Ace, True Value and Carrefour and they were not the cheapest by nearly 100AED and would not price match.

The other place where I picked up a couple of camping bits - great battery powered torch, good knife gadget and a brilliant rucksack - was in a shop on the first floor of Al Wadha Mall. Its not too far from the front of the mall - sorry, cannot remember the name. And they gave me a little discount too.
