Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Enjoy the charming fishing village of Carrabelle, Florida. Bayside Camping is a privately owned 100’ x 100’ tract of ocean front property. Take a walk alongside the natural beach and experience the ocean waves at the East Pass a.k.a. The Gateway to the Gulf with a direct view of Dog Island and St. George Island. Carrabelle‘s public beach is about 1 mile away and St. George Island is approximately a 15 minute drive with beautiful beaches and restaurants alongside the ocean. Enjoy the Carrabelle lighthouse tour or catch an airboat ride at Captain Hooks Airboat Excursions in Apalachicola. Boat rentals are available both in Carrabelle and neighboring East Point. Fishing charters are available at Cippio Creek in Carrabelle or East Point. Enjoy local seafood at Carabelle’s Millender’s seafood or enjoy dining out at The Farmer’s Daughter or Fathom’s Steam Room and Raw Bar to name a couple of popular night spots.Check in time: 1:00 pm EST/ Check out: 11:00 am EST. No special check in instructions; just show up at 1:00 pm or after and enjoy your stay! Please make sure to remove any trash from the area and leave only wood in the firepit prior to your departure; no burned trash please to keep neat and tidy for the next happy campers. 😀 Carrabelle public beach has public waste cans for trash disposal. Park your RV or pitch your tent and enjoy the sounds and sites of the ocean. Watch the dolphins. Fishing charters are available as well as boat rentals. Carrabelle public beach is 1 mile approximately from the campsite headed east on Highway 98 on the right side of the road complete with restroom facilities, picnic tables, and waste cans for trash removal. It is also pet friendly beach. 😀🐕🦮🐩🐕‍🦺 St. George Island is just 15 or so minutes away heading east across the bridge. The Apalachicola Forrest is close by for nature hikes and bike trails. Carrabelle has the Crooked River Lighthouse that is open to the public for tours. Enjoy the historic sites that Carrabelle has to offer such as the Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum or the Carrabelle History Museum. There are many charter boats available to book for fishing trips as well as airboat tours that are available in the nearby area. You can also go horseback riding on the beach in Port St. Joe if that’s on your wish list. ❤️

Disappointing
This spot is okay for a one night stop, but not suitable for staying longuer with kids. The road is pretty noisy and the beach is dirty and hard to access. There were also lots of dog poop on the ground. Backing in this spot is also pretty tricky... It is over priced for having no service plus it isn't clean.

Waterfront scene
Difficulty backing into driveway with rough ground for dog walking, no easy access to beach area around spot but beautiful sunset and sunrise!!! I know you want to sell, but spruce it up a little and it’ll be a gem!!

Great view!!!
This spot is exactly as advertised - an empty lot with an amazing view!! Nice fire pit made for a great spot to cook dinner while watching the sunset and the full moon rise. A big wind meant we really didn’t hear the traffic at all.

Private Waterfront Spot
That's what was a fantastic private spot the park for the night. I loved walking on the little beach, not a swimming spot I don't think. Pelicans and other birds say on top of the piers and pillars nearby as the sun went down and came up. There was quite a bit of fog in the morning and the fire pit was a wonderful bonus... The road noise didn't bother us. The site was clean. Even though there are other stealthy places to park on the water, it was comforting knowing you would not be kicked out overnight. Would definitely stay here again.

Not Our cup of tea
If you have pets and small children, this site is not for you. Very close to a very busy road. Great view of ocean!
