Atlantic Beach Campground at Fort Clinch State Park



This campground is within the Fort Clinch State Park, which is in the northeastern part of the state. When you are not enjoying the sandy beach, swimming, hiking, fishing, and searching for seashells and shark teeth, you can explore Fort Clinch. This fort is still completely furnished, and you can take a self-guided tour of those rooms and the museum. There are also extensive grounds to explore outside, so you can easily spend a half day or more in the area.
Blue Spring State Park Campground
This family-friendly Florida campground is approximately one hour to the north of Orlando, so it is an option if you want to tackle a theme park or two during your visit. This is one of the best places to see manatees in Florida during the winter months, so plan your vacation accordingly if you want to see these creatures up close. When you are not in your RV, you can go out in the water to go swimming, paddling, snorkeling, and scuba diving. You can also hike the nearby trails, go birdwatching, and take a river cruise tour.
Fort Pickens Campground
The Fort Pickens Campground is part of the Gulf Islands National Seashore and can be found out on the island of Santa Rosa. While you will love the sparkling water and secluded beach area, your kids will love the mini golf and the nearby National Naval Aviation Museum. The Blue Angels practice here, so you will want to check out their practice schedule and try to plan your trip for when they will be up in the air.
Gregory E Moore RV Resort
The Gregory E. Moore RV Resort can be found at the Topsail Hill Preserve State Park on Santa Rosa Beach. There are more than one hundred RV sites, so you will always have a place to put your camper. This is one of the best beaches in the state and you can take a tram down to it from this family-friendly Florida campground. Of course, you can also walk down to the beach or hike along one of the trails that leads to views of both Morris and Campbell Lakes.
St. George Island State Park Campground
Smaller RVs are welcome at this campground at St. George Island State Park. You won’t find yourself right on the water at this campground in Florida, but the Gulf of Mexico is only a quarter of a mile away. This is normally considered the forgotten part of the state, because not many people think of traveling to this location. However, once you arrive, you will realize that this is the paradise you have always been looking for. Dr. Beach is one of the best beaches in the country and your family will love everything you can do on the beach from the moment you arrive until the second you need to close your RV door one last time to return home.
Lion Country Safari KOA
The final family-friendly Florida campground on our list, the Lion Country Safari KOA can be found in Loxahatchee and it is right next to the Lion Country Safari. It is common to hear the lions roaring when you are in your RV, so make sure you remember that they are in their home and so are you. When you are not driving through the safari, you can play shuffleboard, basketball, volleyball, and go swimming in the pool. There is a dog park for furry family members, and you can all take long walks along the canal.
