The salt-tang of the Irish Sea meets you before you've even unpacked, carried inland on the breeze that sweeps across this stretch of the North Wales coast.
Towyn suits campers after a no-frills pitch within reach of sandy beaches — tent campers and those in campervans will find space here, though you'll want to ask ahead if you're bringing the dog. The area draws families to its wide, Blue Flag beaches and the quirky narrow-gauge railway that rattles along the coast, while the mountains of Snowdonia rise temptingly inland for anyone with a day spare and decent boots.
Facilities aren't detailed, so ring ahead to check what's onsite and whether evening campfires are allowed — policies vary. This is straightforward coastal camping in a seaside town that doesn't take itself too seriously, the kind of place where you fall asleep to distant arcades and wake to gulls. Expect a traditional Welsh seaside vibe rather than wilderness solitude, but the beaches are vast and the sunsets over Cardigan Bay are worth the journey alone.
