Best campsites on Anglesey: 8 top picks for 2026

*

Browse campervans and caravans for hire in campsites on Anglesey if you already know your dates.

Anglesey sits roughly two and a half hours from Manchester and just over three from Birmingham, making it a realistic long-weekend destination for much of the Midlands and North West. The A55 crosses the Britannia Bridge and delivers you onto the island without fuss. Camplify trip data shows that bank holiday weekends in late May and August are the most popular windows for camping in Anglesey, so booking early is strongly advised for those dates. Pick up your campervan from a local owner near you and you're already on your way.

The island has a particular hold on returning visitors. Its 125-mile coastal path, the Welsh language road signs, and the kind of light that photographers travel far to find all combine to make this one of the top camping destinations in Wales. The best campsites in Wales near a beach often come back to Anglesey, and for good reason.

Coastal camping on Anglesey: sites with sea views and sandy access

Tyddyn Isaf Caravan & Camping Park

Tyddyn Isaf Caravan & Camping Park sits on a south-facing hillside above Dulas Bay on the island's east coast, and its position is the thing that draws people back year after year. The views across the bay are wide and unhurried. Touring pitches are spread across terraced grass terraces, and many have electric hook-up as standard. The site accommodates motorhomes, caravans and tents, with hardstanding pitches available for those who'd rather not risk a wet-grass departure.

The facilities are well maintained and include modern shower blocks and a motorhome service point. The beach at Dulas is within walking distance, and the coastal path passes close enough to make a morning walk genuinely easy. Hirers who've stayed here rate the sunsets from the upper pitches particularly highly, and it's consistently one of the most requested parks among Camplify travellers planning an east-coast Anglesey circuit.

Dog friendly and family-oriented, Tyddyn Isaf is a steady performer across all age groups. The on-site shop stocks basics, and the local pub at Moelfre is a short drive along the coast road.

Quick facts:

• Distance: Approximately 20 miles from Bangor (via A5025)

• Best for: Families, couples, dog owners seeking coastal access

• Key facilities: Electric hook-up, hardstanding pitches, motorhome service point, shower blocks, on-site shop

• Book ahead: Bank holidays, July and August

Penrhyn Bay Caravan Park

The drive to Penrhyn Bay Caravan Park takes you along the northern Anglesey coast road, and the setting when you arrive is quietly impressive. This is a smaller, more relaxed park compared to some of the island's busier sites, which suits hirers looking for a lower-key stay.

Pitches here are a mix of grass and hardstanding, and the park is well suited to couples and smaller families who want a peaceful base. Electric hook-up is available across the touring area. The nearby beach is walkable, and the village amenities at Penrhyn Bay are close enough to be practical. Camplify owners familiar with the north Anglesey coast recommend this site for those who want proximity to the Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path without the footfall of the larger holiday parks.

The park is pet friendly, and the surrounding lanes are good for an evening stroll. For those treating Anglesey as a touring base rather than a static holiday, it works well as part of a wider circuit of the island's campsites.

Quick facts:

• Distance: Approximately 8 miles from Llandudno (across the strait)

• Best for: Couples, small families, coastal walkers

• Key facilities: Electric hook-up, hardstanding and grass pitches, pet-friendly

• Book ahead: School summer holidays and bank holiday weekends

Camping in central and east Anglesey: sheltered parks close to Red Wharf Bay

Kingsbridge Caravan Park

A community favourite for good reason, Kingsbridge Caravan Park occupies a sheltered spot near Llangefni in central Anglesey, giving it a quieter character than the more exposed coastal parks. It's popular among Camplify travellers who want a secure, well-run base while they explore the full island by road.

The site is well equipped, with electric hook-up on touring pitches and clean, practical facilities throughout. Hardstanding pitches mean wet-weather arrivals aren't the ordeal they can be on grass-only sites. Families return to Kingsbridge partly for its calm atmosphere and partly for its central location: the beaches at Red Wharf Bay and Benllech are both within easy reach, as is the town of Llangefni for shopping and supplies.

Feedback from Camplify's community of owners and hirers places Kingsbridge among the top choices for first-time Anglesey visitors. The site team are knowledgeable about local attractions, and the park has a genuinely welcoming atmosphere that makes solo travellers feel as at home as larger family groups.

Quick facts:

• Distance: Approximately 5 miles from Llangefni; 15 miles from Bangor

• Best for: Families, first-time Anglesey visitors, motorhome tourers

• Key facilities: Electric hook-up, hardstanding pitches, modern shower block

• Book ahead: July and August, Easter weekend

Frongoch Campsite Red Wharf Bay

Red Wharf Bay is one of the most photographed corners of Anglesey, and Frongoch Campsite Red Wharf Bay makes the most of its position above that broad, tide-washed inlet. The campsite sits on farmland with open views across the bay, and on a clear evening the light here is remarkable.

This is a more traditional, back-to-basics camping experience. Facilities are straightforward rather than resort-style, which is precisely what the site's regulars appreciate. It attracts a mix of tent campers and touring vans, and its off-grid camping character gives it a distinct identity among the best campsites on Anglesey. Camplify owners who know the area suggest arriving with a well-stocked cool box, as the nearest large supermarket is a short drive away.

The bay itself is ideal for kayaking and paddleboarding at high tide, and the Salt Marsh Arms pub at Red Wharf Bay is a short walk from the site. For hirers wanting a genuinely immersive coastal experience rather than a managed holiday park, Frongoch is a strong choice.

Quick facts:

• Distance: Approximately 12 miles from Bangor (via A5025)

• Best for: Tent campers, van lifers, outdoor activity enthusiasts

• Key facilities: Basic amenities, open grass pitches, proximity to beach

• Book ahead: August, late May bank holiday

West Anglesey campsites: close to Holy Island and the Holyhead ferry route

Plas Uchaf Touring and Camping Park

Plas Uchaf Touring and Camping Park is managed by St Davids Leisure and sits in the western part of the island, well placed for visiting South Stack lighthouse, the RSPB reserve at Ellin's Tower, and the dramatic cliffs that define this part of the Anglesey coastline.

The park itself is tidy and well organised, with electric hook-up pitches and a practical facilities block. Hardstanding and grass pitches are available. Well-rated by the Camplify community for its location relative to Holyhead and the west-coast walking routes, Plas Uchaf suits hirers who want to explore the less-visited western fringe of the island. The AONB landscape around Holy Island is striking and relatively crowd-free outside peak season.

For motorhome hirers arriving from Holyhead or planning a trip that incorporates the ferry crossing to Ireland, this site's position is a practical advantage. The 5 best campsites on Anglesey consistently include this area of the island for its coastal character.

Quick facts:

• Distance: Approximately 3 miles from Holyhead

• Best for: Walkers, birdwatchers, motorhome tourers, ferry travellers

• Key facilities: Electric hook-up, hardstanding and grass pitches, clean amenity block

• Book ahead: Late spring and summer school holidays

Pen-y-Llyn Touring Caravan and Motorhome Park

Purpose-built for touring outfits, Pen-y-Llyn Touring Caravan and Motorhome Park is a no-frills, well-run site in the western part of Anglesey. It's aimed squarely at caravans and motorhomes rather than tents, which keeps the atmosphere calm and the facilities in good condition.

Pitches are level, many are hardstanding, and electric hook-up is standard across the touring area. A motorhome service point is on site, which is a practical bonus for longer trips. Owners in the area suggest Pen-y-Llyn as a reliable overnight or short-stay option for travellers crossing to or from Holyhead, but it works equally well as a week-long base for exploring this side of the island.

The lanes around the site are quiet and well suited to an evening cycle. Nearby beaches at Rhosneigr and Aberffraw are within easy driving distance, and the village pub culture in this part of Anglesey is very much alive. A solid, reliable entry among the top campsites on Anglesey for motorhome users.

Quick facts:

• Distance: Approximately 6 miles from Holyhead; 12 miles from Llangefni

• Best for: Caravans, motorhomes, couples, retired tourers

• Key facilities: Electric hook-up, hardstanding pitches, motorhome service point

• Book ahead: Summer school holidays, bank holiday weekends

South Anglesey campsites: farmland settings near Newborough and Beaumaris

Home Farm Caravan Park

A go-to for Camplify regulars on the southern stretch of the island, Home Farm Caravan Park sits near Marianglas on the eastern side of Anglesey, close to the coast and within reach of Beaumaris Castle, one of Wales' most impressive medieval fortifications.

The park has a genuine working-farm character that distinguishes it from more commercial sites. Pitches are spread across well-kept ground, with electric hook-up available for touring units. The facilities are clean and practical, and the park is dog friendly, which matters to a large proportion of Camplify hirers travelling with pets. Highly rated by Camplify's community, Home Farm is particularly popular with families who want a relaxed base that isn't overwhelmed in high season.

Beaumaris itself is worth a full afternoon: the castle, the Victorian pier, and the high street have a charm that's hard to replicate elsewhere on the island. The drive south to the Menai Strait is straightforward, and the views across to the Snowdonia mountains on a clear day are a reminder of exactly where you are.

Quick facts:

• Distance: Approximately 8 miles from Beaumaris; 10 miles from Bangor

• Best for: Families, dog owners, history enthusiasts

• Key facilities: Electric hook-up, dog-friendly pitches, farm setting

• Book ahead: July and August, Easter

Ynys Môn A Môr

Ynys Môn A Môr takes its name from the Welsh for 'Anglesey and Sea', which tells you something about its priorities. This is a site that leans into the island's natural setting rather than competing on facilities, and it has developed a loyal following among travellers who appreciate that approach.

The site offers a more intimate camping experience, with pitches that feel properly separated rather than parked in rows. It suits those who appreciate quieter surroundings and who are happy to be self-sufficient for a night or two. The surrounding landscape of southern Anglesey is gentle and green, quite different in character from the dramatic clifftops of the west. Hirers who've stayed here rate the sense of calm and the genuinely Welsh atmosphere, which can be harder to find at the island's more polished holiday parks.

For those exploring the full circuit of camping in Anglesey, Ynys Môn A Môr offers something distinct: a site that feels embedded in the local landscape rather than imposed on it. It pairs well with a visit to Newborough Forest and the beach at Llanddwyn, one of the island's most memorable coastal spots.

Quick facts:

• Distance: Approximately 10 miles from Llangefni; 15 miles from Bangor

• Best for: Couples, solo travellers, those seeking a quieter stay

• Key facilities: Basic amenities, grass pitches, peaceful setting

• Book ahead: August and bank holiday weekends
