Hi, I camp near Morfa all the time and there are a few options right by it (within a 20minute walk down the beach). Firstly there is Benar Beach Campsite which is to the south of the nude section. Its fairly basic but has the essentials like showers and things, the added bonus is that it has a small enclosed nudist section. The nude bit is often full in the summer so you need to book ahead to guarantee a nude spot.

Just across the road is Glynns Field. (Its changed name now I think to somebody elses field, I think its his son). This is very very basic and just a field with a tap. Also I think it is limited to tents only because of their camping licence. Last I heard they were possibly expanding to accept caravans and things, but there is on occasion a caravan in there too. Although basic it is a very relaxed environment, nudists are accepted towards one end of the field but there isnt much privacy (no walls or hedges) so take a windbreak or similar if you want your privacy.

Just next to that is Dyffryn Seaside Estate, this is a large holiday park which also has an area for touring pitches. Ive not stayed here myself but Ive been in there. It has quite a few facilities like a small shop and also a chip shop. But theres no option for nude camping so I avoid it.

Ive been to both Benar Beach and Glynns Field. I always camp nude and havent had any bad experiences, everyone (especially the nudists) seem very friendly. Just a short walk up the beach is the nudist section. In my opinion you cant beat camping so near the nude beach, especially on a nude campsite.

Is there parking for day visitors?

Yes theres a pay and display carpark right by the entrance to the beach. Its not huge and can get very busy in summer, but if you get there early enough its fine.

Also I wasnt aware they had a policy about single male nudists. Ive seen a few in the nude section on previous visits but maybe they only enforce it when its busy. There are certainly more single males on the beach than at the campsite though, maybe thats why?!

David Jones also known as Davey Jones who runs the site at Benar Beach is a perv and only likes to have couples there and is very anti gay and also hates tourists! I used to know a few couples who used to camp there but got fed up of him perving into thier tent or caravan!
Also depending what vehicle you turn up in and job you have he charges different prices so you have been warned!

Read the reviews how bad he is!

Stick with Glyn's Field which is now called Pentre Mawr Farm campsite. Its much better and quiter and they have no problems with single guys. Dennis who is Glyn's son is a really nice guy and makes you feel very welcome! If you camp towards the back of the field there is a section with hedges which give you a little shelter if the winds are from the east. You may get woken up by the sheep in the next field but its lovely and quiet all night and day and very relaxing.
Just take plenty of wind breaks for more privacy.

You are allowed to take a camper van on the field as long as you pitch a tent.
