Tent Camping in Florida?




Donald C


I am looking to take my son and girlfriend camping down in florida this March. I would like something on or within walking distance of the beach(atlantic or gulf), and not too far south(already a long drive). Ideally a resort type camp ground would be nice. (The more non camping stuff the more my girlfriend will want to go) I don't have a great deal of money, any suggestions?
How is diney on the wallet though?
Thant should have said disney
and by resort type I ment things like having a hot tub



Answer
don't know about tent camping with hot tubs -- my favorite camp grounds are anstasia state park outside st augustine, bahia honda state park in the keys and camping in flamingo in everglades national park. all of them are beach camping. in the everglades you can pitch your tent right on fla bay and look out over the keys. it is very nice. nobody ever really tent camps there either so you won't have many neighbors.

What are the best tent camping sites in Florida?

I'm considering Highlands Hammock and Ocala for tent camping for a group of us for my birthday. Assuming we don't want primitive sites, which site #'s are the best for tent camping (privacy/location) for these parks or others in central or south florida?


Answer
If you REALLY want something nice, you might want to consider Fort DeSoto County Park in southern Pinellas County (Tampa Bay area).

Fort DeSoto's North Beach was named the #1 Beach in the U.S. (Hawaii included) in 2005! It sits on the Gulf, at the mouth of Tampa Bay!
