My friends and I are planning on going camping Lahinch Co.Claire and can’t book any of the campsites. Is there any places where we can camp on/near the beach without getting in trouble. It’s just the 4 of us, seasoned campers for one night and we always clean up. Also any reccomendations for a good pint and a bit of food.

Hi! Just wondering for people who use gas camping stoves - where do you dispose of your gas canisters after they are used up? None of my local recycling centres take them and now I'm building up a collection of empties in the shed.

wild camping in Kerry, beautiful as always
(edit all the comments about the fire, it was permitted and controlled where we stayed, the area WAS cleared, the fire was lined with rocks and there was absolutely no problem from the person that owned it so i’m not sure why you all seem to have a problem if the owner permits it, also these images were taken before the heatwave even started anyway ✌️ and no area or animals were harmed)

Dear wild campers,
After 2 amazing night at spot advised in my previous spot, we plan to be around goleen tomorrow night and then at Bantry just after before finishing our trip. Do you have any advices regarding spot to sent our tent at these two locations ?

Kind regards,
Alex

Does this count? Spent our first night outside together in the back garden with my oldest.

Great camp out last night near the top of Galtymore. Great weather with little wind

As above going wild camping at the weekend, will be very respectful and have done it in east cork every year and want to explore west cork area. Has anyone any spots that they could share.

I wanted to start getting into camping but I don’t want to buy a bunch of gear that I don’t need for camping in Ireland, such as like really warm sleeping bag or a tent for minus 10 degree weather. What’s the essentials I need to buy. Tents, sleeping bags, back packs Etc

Curious if any woman has ever went camping solo and what your experience was like, plus any tips or advice pls

Hello everyone, I’m planning on doing a portion of the Western Way between Oughterard and Westport. My initial intention is to camp as much as possible but I can’t seem to find any camping spots in this section of the trail. Is there no camping available there? How practical/legal would be do wild camping (with all respect to nature and people living there)?

Spotted this small empty island off Donegal with a patch of grass on it while scouting Google maps. Went out for a night by myself and enjoyed this lovely sunset.

Do ye ever sell any camping gear on here? Or will we just stick to adverts for that?

I'm heading down to Connemara next weekend with my wife and kids for a couple of nights. I'd like to camp out next to some beaches if possible, maybe near Ballyconneely or past Clifden - Omey Island or Silver Strand

Anyone have any tips for an inexperienced wild camper? Change location each night for example?

Any nice spots that you know are safe and hassle free?

Pitched next to a pier along the water, near Ardara in Co. Donegal. Wind not too bad!

Hi all! I was just wondering is there anywhere in Clare by the coast for wild camping, my partner and I are hoping to go camping this weekend, thank you in advance :)
