🌧️ Storm Amy Puts a Damper on Festivities at Shell Island 🌧️
It’s official, folks! Shell Island, the largest campsite in Wales, won’t be hosting its much-anticipated Shelloween and Firework Weekend. With over 100,000 visitors annually, this Gwynedd hotspot had to make the tough call to cancel the event due to a rather unfriendly weather forecast thanks to Storm Amy.
Famous for its stunning views and expansive sandy beaches, Shell Island was all set to wrap up another successful season with a bang. Hundreds were expected to join in the celebration, but safety comes first. The forecast didn’t look promising, leaving organisers with no choice but to pull the plug on the festivities. 🌪️
A heartfelt message from Shell Island reads: “We’re really sad to share that due to the unfavourable weather forecast, we’ve had to make the difficult decision to cancel this year’s Shelloween and Firework Weekend at Shell Island. Safety and enjoyment of our guests is always our top priority.”
To all who had booked for the event, keep an eye on your inbox. They’ll be sending out emails soon detailing the next steps. Though this news has left many disappointed, the overwhelming support for the decision is clear. One guest shared: “Totally understandable, safety is more important.”
We know it’s disheartening, but Shell Island promises to be back with more amazing events once the weather clears up. Until then, stay safe and dry! ☔
Keep your spirits up and stay connected for updates on future events. Let’s hope for clearer skies soon. 💙
