Get outdoors with the experts

BLUE Sky Outdoor Experts is equipped with gifts for any type of dad this Father’s Day, from the backyard chef to the outback explorer.

Owner Luke Kelly is a hobby fisherman himself, alongside keeping busy managing the store with his wife Kristy and raising his sons.

“I try to do as much fishing as I can, and I’ve got plenty of products to test and report back to customers and give them direct feedback,” he said.

Blue Sky stocks everything your dad needs to enjoy an outdoor lifestyle; workwear for the DIY or tradie dad, water sports gear for the river dad, caravan, 4WD and camping supplies for the adventure dad, and barbecue fittings and flavourings for the home chef dad.

Treat your dad to an upgrade of the basics – a deluxe camp chair or Esky to add a bit of luxury to his kit.

Luke knows how particular hobbyists can be, so if your dad’s idea of a good time is spending hours instore deciding between two near-identical options, give him the gift of choice with a Blue Sky gift card.

“When it comes to fishermen, they can be fussy when it comes to what they like to use, so sometimes if you’re stuck for ideas a gift card can be a good option,” he said.

Kristy manages the growing embroidery department, so you can order personalised ‘best dad’ merchandise.

Luke and Kristy have done the hard work for you, with a display out the front for extra inspiration.
