So you wanna be a happy camper, eh? Then, Florida with its complex river systems, its riveting marshlands, picturesque clearings and ancient trees should be in your bucket list. From tent outdoors and RV stop campgrounds to hidden jewels and lodge rentals, you’ll be able to find the best campgrounds and spots to camp in Florida. Here are the things you must know before stepping out into the unknown.
Reserving a spot is an absolute necessity. Amid the slower times of the year (winter in northwest Florida, and summer in the rest of the state), you might have the capacity to get by without reservations on weekdays, yet it’s better not to take the risk. What’s more, to catch a campground amid the bustling season and on all ends of the week and occasions, you’ll have to reserve a spot months ahead of time. Florida State Parks have a reservation system set up through Reserve America. It’s similar to making a hotel reservation. Simply check the Reserve America website and book.
Campgrounds in this part of the state are busiest from March through August and on weekends.
Collier-Seminole State Park is an extraordinary spot. Reservations are highly suggested from November through March. Outdoor activities from June through Sept. might be joined by gnawing creepy crawlies and evening downpours. Climbing and mountain bicycle trails are liable to flooding from June to November so this adds to the rough but welcome challenge to the no-nonsense camper.
Highlands Hammock State Park is 9251 acres of land that’s opened to the general population in 1931. The recreation center still retains a beautiful, virgin hardwood forest. The sharp-eyed and trained wildlife expert can get a look at whitetail deer and alligators practically most of the time. For an intriguing trail, take a gander at different areas, the recreation center offers nine separate nature trails, including the well-known walk through a cypress region.
Everglades National Park is the third biggest stop in the lower 48 states, covering 2400 square miles! There is no shortage of things to do for people, groups, or families to appreciate while on the outdoors. The various living spaces consider charming activities ranging from climbing, kayak and kayaking, biking, fresh and saltwater angling, and outdoors in the great wilderness. The Everglades offers outdoor camps. Long Pine Key and Flamingo campgrounds offer potable water, spaces for eating, barbecues, restrooms, and tent and trailer locales. Showers and electric hookups are accessible at Flamingo. Primitive campgrounds and beach destinations are accessible through the watery Everglades backcountry.
These are just some of the camps both men, women and even children can enjoy. Most of Florida especially the central and southern parts are covered in vegetation, lakes and rivers so there are a lot of opportunities to explore. Who knows, you might even spot some creatures currently unrecognized by science such as the Bigfoot of whom some locals swear they have seen in at one point or the other.
