Top campsites for a coastal getaway
What’s not to love about a coastal camping and touring holiday? In summer, the family can build sandcastles in the sun, or enjoy an ice cream after a splash in the sea. In the winter, you can take a bracing walk along the seafront, taking in panoramic views as far as the eye can see.
Whether you’re looking for a secluded beach to relax on, or a traditional holiday at one of many seaside resorts, you're sure to find the perfect coastal campsite in our list of Premier Parks.
