At Camp Bongo, you’ll be set to check the swell without so much as getting out of your sleeping bag. This adults-only pop-up site in Anglesey is right next to Porth Trecastell beach, also known as Cable Bay. Designed as a playground for adults with a summer festival camping vibe, it has a horsebox bar, music and live entertainment, daytime activities and food vendors (just note that all of these are subject to being chopped and changed depending on when you visit). The site is also as eco-friendly as possible, with stripped-back facilities including composting toilets and fresh-water standpipes to clean off the sand from your feet. Bring your furry companions, as Camp Bongo is dog-friendly too. The seaside town of Rhosneigr is a quick five-minute drive from the site. It has surfing schools for guests who would like a little guidance in catching their first waves, as well as shops that rent out surfing equipment.
