Our guests love staying here: "Camping at Gayle’s property was an amazing experience. We shared the field with 3 other campers but there was still plenty of room between sites. Land is flat and has fire pit spaces and BBQ grills. Outdoor shower was appreciated even though we didn’t use it & it was great to have the port-o-potty on site. The best part was getting to see the animals!"

The best camping near Little Talbot Island State Park guide

Overview

About

Travel back in time to one of Florida's last unspoiled barrier islands. Forget about cellphones, internet access, rush hour traffic, and busy city life on this undeveloped island. BYOB (bring your own bike) to pedal around 3 miles of bike trails. Walk the trails if prefer a more leisurely pace.

Kick off your sandals to enjoy 5 miles of sandy beaches. Look for souvenir seashells or driftwood for a campfire. Hang 10 with your surfboard, or kayak past the towering bluffs of Myrtle Creek.

Keep a sharp eye out. You might be lucky enough to spot a sea turtle in the water. The maritime forest harbors many birds and small mammals that skitter about. Animal lovers admire the abundant wildlife here.

The campground overlooks the scenic western side of the island. No matter what spot you pick, you're mere feet from the pristine beach. Around 32 campsites have facilities for tents, hammocks, or RVs.
