Longsha campsite, the Facilities

Basic facilities bring anyone back to a bit of reality, living at one with nature. Communal shared Kitchen, male and female communal showers are all built basic but functional and in the open air.

We extend a big thank from Longsha campsite to all the friends, family, and guests who have helped along the way over the last ten years.

Most recent pictures of facilities are below:

Lighting up the under cover areas.

To save on electricity, we added some clear panels into the roofing in 2023. This change gives more hours of daylight in the kitchen, undercover areas and store cupboards. It has made a huge difference and allows sunlight to get to the sand.

Electric was self-sufficient back in 2014. A generator housing system was in place. It pumped water from the wells and provided electric power. However, it was run on petrol and diesel. This meant many costly trips back and forth to the mainland.

Then slowly around 2015/16 our own solar system was implemented . However, it was hard to maintain over the years.

We slowly erected solar lampposts in the last few years. They provided enough light for the campsite. We then used smaller solar lights where needed. We use a little electric power for the kitchen only from 7-11pm.

The Kitchen

The Kitchen has not changed too much in appearance over the years. With a lick of colourful paint, new coverings and eventually metal splash backs, the kitchen remains basic and functional.

Plates, cutlery and cooking pans/bowls and woks are available.

Above you can see before and after.

Seating areas for eating.

The smaller tables & chairs change regularly due to monsoon damage and wear n tear.

The undercover group eating area has had the floor raised with sand and a boarder to prevent rainwater from collecting.

This provides an extra dry space during rainy times.

BBQ’s are also located in these areas and remade most seasons.

Toilets

We have two toilet blocks. They have changed several times over the years due to fallen trees. There has also been damage from the monsoon.

Other facilities

DRINKS: We have room temperature water for sale and sometimes soft drinks. During busier times we may have cold drinks for sale. This has always been basic and minimal at the campsite. Drinks are always sold in many restaurants

COOL BOXES: We have few cool boxes for guests to keep there items cool and out of the sun.

BOOKS: A small library of books is available for guests.

GAMES: We always have several games, cards, musical instruments, (guitars, recorders etc) for guest use. Childrens buckets and spades for sand.

SNORKELS: Snorkels have always been available. We hire out snorkeling equipment for guests at a reduced rate for Longsha camping guests.

CAMPFIRE: We try to ensure responsible campfires at the front of the beach only!. No plastics or rubber/rubbish are to be used. We move our camp pit sometimes so guests are not smoked out. This ensures they can sleep well without breathing in smoek from the campfire, so please be mindful of this.
