Haven – The Beach Boy

Holiday park chain Haven have launched this new TV ad video titled ‘The Beach Boy’. The commercial follows a young boy sporting a blue cape cruising down the coast on a horse-drawn chariot.


We see holiday makers watch in awe at this unusual sight. The advert concludes however revealing this was maybe just the boy’s imagination as we see him simply running down the beach with his dog.

The commercial is showcasing Haven’s partnership with Team GB. There are also 10-second and 30-second version of this ad featuring Olympians Tom Daley and Denis Lewis at a Haven resort.
