Even if it doesnt appear to be private land, it probably is. A BAD EXPERIENCE.

I had a terrible experience yesterday. I went out camping after spending hours and hours on google and bing maps trying to find somewhere with a flat piece of grass that didnt look like it was a field. I found what I thought was a suitable spot near Streedagh beach in Sligo. Set up my tent and had dinner etc. Ended up not…

You’re not a wild camper. You’re a car camper. The type of camping best suited to you is a camp site where you can rock up, take all your gadgets out and set up.

I’m very familiar with Streedagh, been surfing there since the early nineties. It couldn’t be more obvious that that spot is privately owned. There’s plenty of good campsites, but you need to hike a bit. You obviously wanted to camp beside your car.

If you’re in to wild camping you gotta;

- change your attitude

- Learn to read the land. If you really thought that was “wild” land you obviously can’t read the land.

- learn about livestock, steer clear of livestock and respect farms

- learn some backwood skills

- leave your precious Land Rover somewhere and learn to hike/bike/canoe/kayak somewhere off the beat and track.

Until then stick to sites.

You got shifted quick! The landowner blasted you out of there and you’re sore. Get over it and stop pretending you’d have turned in to a ninja if your girlfriend wasn’t there.
