best tent camping in usa image

Okay, I've decided that for one summer my husband and friends are going to be hippies and live in a van and travel around the country. Where are some beaches that allow camping? I suppose with or without fires. It could be tent camping or in an RV/trailer. We live in Louisiana and have unlimited funds, so no place is too far (except Alaska and Hawaii). Any suggestions for good destinations?
Answer
Beaches along both the east and west coasts offer thousands of campgrounds the problem though is getting a campsite since nearly the entire USA just like you wants to spend the summer driving up and down the coast. In California all beach campgrounds get reserved 6 months to a year in advance. So this summer is out of the question, start planning now for next year. Get your reservations in early and look here

I am planning on driving through Oregon, California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Montana, Idaho & Wyoming. I am mostly wanting to view the natural wonders & check out different national parks. I am planning to buy the $30/year national park pass. I am going to sleep in my car/camp out with tent on every night except for one night in Vegas I plan to get a hotel. I am planning on doing this over the course of 2 weeks. Any & all advice would be appreciated as well :)

Man that is a huge chunk of real estate to cover in two weeks : w/o actually looking it up I'd betcha that you're looking at 6000 miles ; possibly more
Realistically you're gonna be driving about 400 mpd which isn't the worst idea in the world bc there iS a lot that you can see from the road
Something that you haven''t mentioned is when you plan to do this : while that trip is barely do-able in the middle of summer it becomes impossible in winter
With those kinds of miles and those kinds of roads you're gonna need to rent comfortable biggish car like a Ford Taurus or a Toyota Camry
National Park Passes are $ 80.00 not $ 30.00.
Many NP campsites will charge you a fee ; The way that you get around that is to use the National Forests that often abut the NP and camp for free -usually
