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.
