I've put this site together to allow campers on Shell Island to independently put their views together and to keep an up to date briefing of news about Shell Island (as the official website has been rather stagnant for a very long time)

This site is not endorsed or supported in any way what so ever by the management team at Shell Island. It would be nice if it was though !!!!

I intend to keep this site updated and if needed will pass on via fax any comments to the Shell Island management team.  This correspondence will be kept up to date here

If you have any information or news about Shell Island that you'd like to add to this news site please feel free to email me. I'll gladly give you all the credit for it

Thanks to everyone who has emailed me some very kind comments about the site and kept me up to date with any news, anything relevant will of course get posted. Also please check out the Gallery section theres some very nice photos there, please keep them coming, it keeps me busy. If you've got any ideas for the site or would like to see something on the site that is Shell Island related please email me and I'll see what I can do.









Happy Birthday to who ????


....Shell Island of course.  

This year sees the 50th anniversary of Shell Island running as a holiday campsite and to help celebrate this Shell Island are hosting a huge 50th birthday party on Saturday June 14th 2008, so check your diaries and make sure you can attend. If you are hoping to camp onsite on this weekend expect the campsite to fill up fast so consider your travel options.  Reception will also be closing at 3pm on the Saturday to allow staff to get into the party mood with you all.

This is expected to be a superb day out and as usual with all Shell Island parties fireworks and live bands are being organised as well as a large outdoor party

Luckily there is no high tide over this weekend so if you are not staying on the Island there is no need to worry about not being able to leave until late

As I get more information on this event I'll keep you all posted or watch the news site on the Official Shell Island website

Long Ride to Llanbedr


On Sunday 29 of June 2008 at 0500 I will start cycling from my home in Stoke On Trent to Shell Island, Llanbedr, North Wales, Gwynedd in aid of two very needy UK charities, the County Air Ambulance Appeal and the National Life Boat Appeal. 

I will hopefully be completing 110 miles in 1 day, and then falling into a long hot shower and then a good pub

Chip and PIN Receipts

Watch your "Chip and PIN" receipts.  The Chip and PIN machines on Shell Island print out way to much information.  This includes the ENTIRE card number, the issue and the card holder name.  This is not the fault of Shell Island but all to do with Barclays Bank PLC.
