  • Adults-only Anglesey pop-up site right next to Porth Trecastell beach
  • A five-minute drive from Rhosneigr surf schools and more beaches
  • Summer festival vibes with a horsebox bar, music and food trucks
Surfboards and swim gear at the ready – at Camp Bongo, you’ll be able to scramble out of bed and hit the water within just a few minutes. Not in the mood to be active? Stay cosy in your bed or crawl to your camping chair and just enjoy the sound of the waves and the views of the sea. All of this is possible because this adults-only pop-up site in Anglesey is in a truly fabulous location right next to Porth Trecastell beach, also known as Cable Bay. Designed as a playground for adults with a summer festival camping vibe, the site has a horsebox bar that runs throughout the season, plus an ever-changing line-up of music, live entertainment, daytime activities and food trucks. Depending on when you visit, you might be able to join kayak tours, ‘paint and sip’ sessions or cocktail-making classes by day before picking up pizza or fish and chips for dinner, and later settling at the social area to watch the sunset or catching some live music in one of the intimate performance spaces. Of course, the beach is always an option too – especially if you’re a surfer. For those who’ve not quite learned the art yet, there are surf schools and kit hire in Rhosneigr (five minutes’ drive away). Walks on the coast path are popular too (particularly if you’ve brought your dog along). Camp Bongo operates in an eco-friendly manner, with compost toilets, cold showers and freshwater standpipes to clean the sand off your feet.

Local attractions

The beach by the site is a lovely one, but on an island like Anglesey it’s well worth getting out to explore as much of the coastline as you can – perhaps taking in a sunset at South Stack Lighthouse (25 minutes' drive), visiting the gorgeous Newborough beach (25 minutes), backed by dunes and pine forest, or taking a boat trip to Puffin Island from Beaumaris (half an hour). While you're in Beaumaris, you should certainly stop by to visit the imposing but unfinished Beaumaris Castle. The National Trust’s Plas Newydd House and Gardens (25 minutes) is another option for those who like to poke around in a grand building with gorgeous gardens. Anglesey has plenty to keep you busy for days on end, but there’s also the option of heading back to the mainland to explore Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park – perhaps hiking, riding the Snowdon Mountain Railway (35 minutes), trying all the adventure activities at Zip World Penrhyn Quarry (35 minutes) or heading to the cute village of Betws-y-Coed (50 minutes).
