Of the 14 campsites within 3.7 miles of the Yarmouth ferry terminal, 5 take tents.
With a tent and no car, the Lymington boat is a simple crossing. There is no luggage limit, but you must carry your own bags, and bikes go free if you book them. Gas canisters are restricted goods, so call Wightlink's restricted goods office at least 24 hours before you sail.
On foot, Heathfield Farm is about 45 minutes west over the Yar Bridge, and Lucketts Farm about 40 minutes east, though that is along the busy A3054, so the bus is better with a heavy pack. Camp Wight is about an hour's walk, or route 7 to the stop outside, and gives a cheaper rate if you arrive without a car. Stoats Farm is over 6km away, so take route 7 to Totland.
Check arrival times against the boat. In autumn 2026 the last sailing left Lymington at about 21:00, but Heathfield takes no arrivals after 7.30pm, Stoats Farm none after 8pm and Camp Wight expects you between 3pm and 6pm. See taking a tent on the ferry.

Probably not without arranging it. Heathfield Farm takes no arrivals after 7.30pm and Stoats Farm none after 8pm, while the last boat from Lymington left at about 21:00 in autumn 2026. Book an earlier sailing or ask the site first.
Gas bottles and canisters are restricted goods that can only travel on certain sailings. Call Wightlink's Restricted and Dangerous Goods Office at least 24 hours before your crossing.

Yes: Camp Wight.
Yes, at Lucketts Farm Campsite, Camp Wight and Stoats Farm Caravan and Camping. Most want fires in a raised pit, not on the ground.
