Of the 10 campsites within 2.7 miles of Whitecliff Bay, 4 are the budget choices, from about £25 a night or less for two.
A tent pitch on the cliff above Whitecliff Bay is one of the island's cheaper ways to get a holiday-park beach. The Away Resorts field opens only in summer, but the pitch price covers up to six people and the park's indoor pool with a flume, the seasonal outdoor pool, crazy golf and the covered adventure playground. Prices change with demand, so the cheapest nights go first.
Off the park, Forelands Pop-Up at Bembridge charged a flat £15 a night per pitch in 2026, whether you bring a tent, a campervan or a motorhome, though every unit counts as its own pitch. It is basic: portaloos and no showers. Fakenham Farm at St Helens charges £15 for a small tent and £20 for a larger one, with metered electric at 45p a unit.
Days out cost little here. The beach is free, Culver Down has six free National Trust car parks, and route 8 has stops near Bembridge Airport and on Culver Down. A 24-hour Rover and Breezer ticket was £15.50 for an adult on the app in 2026. See cheap camping.
