Wild Camping on the Beach | A Whisky by the Campfire
Come and join me on one of the best camps I have ever done, a night by a campfire on the beautiful Rhossili Beach.
Rhossili Bay is the most westerly bay on the Gower peninsula and bears the full might of the Atlantic swells. It is known as a great beach for surfing, with the biggest waves at the north end at Llangennith. It is a dramatic environment with Rhossili Downs towering above this three mile long beach. Heading west along the cliff path towards the end of the peninsula there is Worm's Head, a mile long promontory that juts out into the ocean. Rhossili Bay has been named as one of the top ten beaches in the world and has been voted the best beach in the UK.
Thanks for stopping by, Ryan.

Camping in the Heart of Bannau Brycheiniog National Park.
zhlédnutí 1,4KPřed 21 dnem
Cribyn (meaning Little Ledge) is a mountain in the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park. It has an elevation of 2608 feet and is about 300 feet lower than the neighbouring peaks of Pen y Fan and Corn Du, it is the 8th highest mountain in South Wales. This is one of my favourite camping spots in the Brecon Beacons, the ledge halfway up the mountain on the western side makes for an excellent spot to ...
Pen y Fan Horseshoe Ridge Circular Walk | Brecon Beacons
zhlédnutí 1,7KPřed měsícem
The Horseshoe Ridge walk is probably my favourite walk in the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park. It's a challenging 10 mile circular walk that involves climbing the four peaks of Corn Du, Pen y Fan (the highest peak in southern Britain), Cribyn and Fan y Big. Pen Y Fan and Corn Du were also bronze age burial sites and each summit has a cairn on top, it has a mystical feel to it up there. Once on...
A Night in Mid Wales.
zhlédnutí 2KPřed měsícem
I headed to Mid Wales to camp at a spot I've only ever seen from afar. I was unsure if there would be anywhere flat enough for me to pitch up for the night, so it was a bit of a gamble heading straight there without doing a previous recce of the area. Anyway, it turned out there was just one flat spot, just big enough for me to pitch on, and it turned out to be one of the most beautiful places ...
Wild Camping on the Tallest Mountain in The Cambrian Range | Pumlumon Fawr

I returned to the Cambrian Mountains to explore Pumlumon and the surrounding areas. I hiked along some of the Pumlumon Fawr's Five Trails, spent a night camped on the summit of Pumlumon Fach, and visited the source of the Severn. On my second day, I hiked some more of the trails until I reached The Wye Valley Walk, where I spent the night camped next to a river. Thanks for stopping by, Ryan. #w...
An Abandoned Cottage and Bizarre Stone Enclosures - What was here?
zhlédnutí 1,2KPřed 2 měsíci
For this camp I headed to an area that I had previously discovered whilst I was walking the Beacons Way. When I passed through the area I came across the ruins of an old cottage and a number of stone wall enclosures; after doing some research online I discovered that the area (over 1,700 acres of it) used to be a rabbit farm during the medieval period. I found myself a nice spot to set my tent ...

Great video! Nothing better than the sound of rain on a tarp! I did the Penderyn Distillery tour today and I read there that Bushmills is the oldest too👍 Quickly becoming one of my favourite channels Keep up the good work buddy (and Toby) Da iawn
You can't beat it, mate. It's a great little tour isn't it 👌🏼 Thank you, I'm glad you're enjoying the channel. ATB, Ryan.
Lovely video Ryan . Makes me want to follow in your footsteps.
Thank you, Scott. You should give it a try, it's good for the soul. I hope you are well, my friend.
Another great camp mate 😊I love this place had some great camps and surfs down here . There is a lovely blue pool the far side of llangenith . Been lucky enough to see a big pod of dolphins 🐬 down here . Really enjoyed the video keep safe both look forward to the next video ⛺️
That sounds incredible, a sight I would love to see. I'm looking forward to exploring more of this coastline and shall look for that pool. Thank you and ATB, Ryan.
You deserve every bit of success pal. The Welsh tourism board should be throwing you a few bob too. 😂 Thank you again for the content
That would be nice wouldn't it 😂 Thank you again for the kind words 🙂
Well done mate great video 😊
Cheers, Baz. Thanks for watching, bud.
Thank you for another great video mate. Peace to you and Toby.
Thank you so much 🙂
Great vid again man! ⚡️⚡️⚡️
Thanks, buddy 👍🏼
Wonderful video Ry, inspired me to do a beach camp, and that food looks banging brother 👌
Cheers, buddy! Get on it, brother, it's good for the soul! 🌊
Fairie stones 😮?🧚♀️
Maybe, very mysterious 😮
Fantastic stuff
Cheers, Phil. Thanks for watching.
Brilliant videos
Cheers, Adam. Thanks for watching.
Incredible upload again mate! Channel just keeps getting better and better
Cheers, buddy...thanks for the positive feedback 👍🏼
Ahh mate nicholas romans put me onto your videos. Awesome and great knowledge fair play. Not sure if i wish I'd found them later as im binge watching them and watched about 10 since yesterday so keep them coming, ha before I run out!!!
Nice one, Lee. I'm glad you're enjoying the channel and having a good binge. Hopefully I can get a few more camps in before you run out of videos, ha ha. Take it easy, mate. ATB, Ryan.
Another stonking video!!! How do you keep making each one even better than the last.. keep up your amazing work, can't wait until the next one!
Thank you, buddy, I appreciate the kind comments. Thanks for watching. ATB, Ryan.
I love Rhossili, visit it a lot. I've had my eye on Whiteford beach (just around the corner) for a while for a camp. . Just don't get the free time.
It's beautiful down there, mate. I haven't been to Whiteford beach, I definitely need to explore more of the area. Thanks for watching. ATB, Ryan.
@wildaboutwales as well as the beach there's a few wooded areas that should make nice little hide away areas.
@@swanseamale47 that sounds interesting, I definitely need to take a look down there 👌🏼
Did you finish the bottle pal ? Because your eyes look like you did. 😂. Great video fella, keep em coming, me and clare really enjoying. 👍
That was actually the smoke from the fire, I wish I'd mentioned it in the video because I look pretty wasted, ha ha. Thanks, I'm glad you're both enjoying the videos. ATB, Ryan.
Another excellent video and camp and very inspiring, thank you Ryan. That ruck sack is a tardis!
Ha ha, as another person mentioned, like a Magician's Hat. Thank you, Jeff, and thank you for watching.
Great video again 👏 Jura journey single malt, try it it's the smoothest I've tasted. Keep the content coming 👍
Thank you, Lee 👍🏼 I've had a few bottles of the Journey, and indeed it is a smooth whisky. Good taste, mate 👌🏼
Everything about that was brilliant, your set up, your Firepit, your food prep, drinks, drone, music, local history everything. Been there many times fishing, but never stayed on the beach, think I might give it a go next time I'm down the Gower. Keep 'em coming mate. Atb
Thanks for the positive feedback, mate. It was a wonderful camp, you should definitely give it a go 👌🏼
Thanks for another great video.
You're welcome, mate, and thanks for watching 👍🏼
Great camp can't wait 2 get wild camping with me lad.after watching that.
Thank you, Carl. It was a great camp this one. I hope you get to go out soon 🏕️👍🏼
Parabolic skills! Well done.
Thank you! 🙂
Another great edit mate👌😎. That place is something special, I never get tired or the views down there. What day was you there last week?
Cheers, buddy 👍🏼 it really is something special, I love it down there. I camped there on Friday night.
Excellent video, great shots again as usual. Have you ever thought of camping on Worms Head? It's a fantastic location if you don't mind being cut off by the tide for the night. You just have to be sure to check the tide times (they're posted locally). Lots of seals on the north side but can be tricky to find a safe spot to film them. Should be easy with a drone though.
Thank you, Paul. I camped out on the far end a couple of years ago. If I'm honest, it's the best camp I've ever done, it was incredible. I got to see a few seals too. I've been thinking of doing it again...it would make for a cool video!
@@wildaboutwales I hope you do. I'll look forward to it!
Stunning beach Ryan , special place for me , very close to where my cousin lives . Walked it many times . Thumbs up Ryan ( Look at the bally comments WOW ) You have lift of !!! Well done sir ATB Phil
Thank you, Phil. It's a beautiful place and very magical, I loved this camp. It's definitely something I'll be doing more of. ATB, Ryan.
Makes for a nice change doesn't it,a beach camp. I've always fancied worms head for a beach camp. But don't know if you would get away with it 🤔 great video again 👍
Thank you, Charlene. It must certainly does, I really enjoyed this one. I've camped right out on Worm's Head, it was incredible 👌🏼
Never been to Rhossili, from Cardiff have to pop over on a day off. You've done it a service, looks bloody beautiful.
Thank you, mate. It's most definitely worth a visit, I love it down there. Thanks for watching. ATB, Ryan.
Really enjoyed watching your video. Thanks for bringing us along with you on your camp.
You're welcome. Thank you and thanks for watching. ATB, Ryan.
Ryan another great camping video. Toby looked as though he was a puppy again running around and in the sea. Your breakfast I think I will have a go a doing that for my next camp instead of the obligatory bacon butties.👍
Thank you, Tony. He absolutely loved it down there, he enjoys the beach. If you make that breakfast, don't forget to drizzle some maple syrup over your fruit like I did 😋
Thats my local go to spot.....its absolutly amazing. On the beach front just below the white house is a small flat area of grass that gets you off the sand. Big enough for a couple tarps. Be warned it can get seriously windy there.
Thank you. Yes, it's an incredible place, I love it down there. I'll have a look for that spot the next time I'm down there. I wouldn't fancy camping on that beach in the wind, I don't think it would be much fun. ATB, Ryan.
I’m on my third and have never had this issue
I have another 3 Ospreys and they are ok, this one and my partner's are super squeaky though.
Well done Ryan, looks an amazing place to camp for the night, great food tips too.
Thanks, Martyn. It's a beautiful place..hope you're keeping well 👍🏼
Top notch! Enjoyed the adventure
Thank you...I'm glad you enjoyed 🙂
Wow! You was living the dream on this one. I gotta do a coastal camp after watching this. Been a while. Great music, drone footage and editing on point. This was a perfect camp. Thanks for the shout Ryan, nice little story that was. Amazing how things can change just bumping into someone, well it was a honour to bump into you. Keep going Ryan, your putting out really good content 👍
Thanks for the kind words, mate, and likewise you're putting out some great footage on your channel; myself and Marianne always watch your videos. It was a fantastic camp, I loved this one. Yes, that brief encounter was a good one 👌🏼 Take it easy, bud 😎👍🏼
Great video.Nice music, too. Always look forward to your videos. Cheers!
Thank you, Ed. It's nice to hear you're enjoying the content. ATB, Ryan.
Another great video! Toby seems to like the beach. Loved your breakfast burrito. I’m like you, I always take a little time and pick up around the area where I’ve camped. People in general seem to be so disrespectful of nature and public places. It’s such a shame!
Thank you, Chris. Yes, he loves the beach, it brings the pup out in him. Good man, it makes a difference if we all do our bit. Thanks for watching. ATB, Ryan.
Infact we have just subscribed to your channel ❤
Thank you, Helen. Welcome to the channel 🙂
That breakfast looked amazing! Thinking I'm going to have to try that very soon. Thanks for sharing my friend😎
Thank you and thanks for watching. Don't forget to drizzle a load of Maple Syrup over the fruit, like I did 😉
Hiya! Fairly new to your channel but we are loving it!!! 😊
That's great to hear! Thank you, Helen 🙂
Nice one. Used to go canoe surfing there, had some great times. Not sure about the raspberry ripple beer but the whisky sounds superb. ATB, Roger
Thanks, Roger. It doesn't sound so good, but it was a nice drink. It's a beautiful beach, and we had a great camp. ATB, Ryan.
Epic 💯👍

Another great video ive never done a beach camp i shall try it
Thanks, Nigel. You most definitely should, I really enjoyed this one.
What a cracker of a video Ryan, they just get better and better. I’ve never tried a beach camp, looks amazing, especially where you were. Toby loves it doesn’t he, such a good doggy. And that whiskey, well I’m just going to have to get some now! Thanks Ryan for all the tremendous time and effort you put into your channel, it’s so enjoyable to watch. ATB Serk
Mate you have done your self proud again, your helping people seen how amazing our country is, 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴
Cheers, buddy! It's a beautiful part of Wales and it made for a great camp 😎👍🏼
Always look forward to your videos. Rhossili, what a lovely change for a wild camp 🏕
Thank you, mate. It was a refreshing change of scenery for us and we enjoyed a good night. ATB, Ryan.
Another wonder of Wales. It speaks for itself !
It really does, it's a magical place. Thanks, Allen.
