We go camping by the seaside because...

Walking on miles of open sand, swimming in the sea and building sandcastles is some of the most simple but amazing fun you can have! If you're planning on spending your holiday on the beach then why go camping inland? Instead, we love discovering campsites on the coast where you can step from your tent and wander down the sandy pathway right to the waterside. Swimming, surfing, paddling, splashing about... the waters of the UK are fun, safe and shark free! For families, camping by the coast is a no-brainer, while for couples and groups of friends the coastal footpaths, smugglers coves and old harbour towns offer ample exploring opportunities – and all topped off with local fish and chips for dinner. Delicious.
