Beach camping in Wales

·

Whether you’re hiking the 870-mile Wales Coast Path, which follows the entirety of the Welsh coastline, or seeking some good old-fashioned seaside fun at one of the country’s lively beach resorts—the beaches of Wales may surprise you. Make the most of the all-too-short summer months to swim and sunbathe at popular beach resorts like Llandudno, Conwy, Aberaeron, and Aberystwyth, all of which have options for campers. Alternatively, pack your wetsuit and go surfing or coasteering along the coast of Pembrokeshire or explore the wild coastline of Anglesey Island. With around 150 beaches to choose from, you’re sure to find the perfect beachside campsite. Check your motorhome or caravan into a coastal holiday park with electric hookups and hardstanding, pitch your tent at a seafront Hipcamp away from the crowds, or go glamping in a luxury yurt, an eco-friendly glamping pod, or cosy tipi.

Narberth, Wales · 8 units · Tents, Motorhomes
Landsker Camping is a family-friendly woodland campsite, at Canaston Bridge, Pembrokeshire. As well as a lovely setting in roughly 10 acres of young woodland, it is ideally located for discovering Pembrokeshire and just a 10 minutes drive from big attractions like Picton Castle Gardens, Wild Lakes Wales and Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo. With views over peaceful countryside, the generously sized, flat grass pitches are sheltered by trees and spaced out for extra privacy (they’re also dotted by wild flowers in spring). You’re welcome to explore the woods, and let the children splash around in the stream. The campsite is certified by the Greener Camping Club. Spectacular beaches including Tenby, Saundersfoot and Amroth are just a 20 minute drive away.
