Weekend Trip to Malakai 🏕 different by design

Very peaceful Site, shower had hot water which was nice. About 30 minutes from the beaches which isn’t bad. Host was very helpful with everything. Has a pretty trail with lights. Can’t wait to come back, 10/10 would recommend

2 nights at Milton & Blackwater Pit Stop

I loved the amenities very clean well kept up. Just wish mosquitos didn’t exist lol. Campground was flat and shaded and in a perfect location not horribly far from the beach.

1 night at Gateway Trails

We loved car camping on Jay and Suzzettes land. This was our first time using Hipcamp and they couldn't have made things easier! They provided easy to follow instructions and offered optional amenities. The site was private and I really enjoyed rising to the sounds of the livestock. We would definitely stay again!

5 nights at Milton & Blackwater Pit Stop

Nice set up. Accommodating host and clean facilities. I will definitely recommend these campgrounds.

2 nights at Milton & Blackwater Pit Stop

This was a good pit stop👍🏻 you get a lot of space with your campsite which is much appreciated. The porta john was clean, JJ even cleaned it first thing in the morning when I was the only camper. It was an easy walk to navigate the camp site too. I could see the possibility of being open to seeing other campers a little but I wouldn’t mind because it was super spread out. Only recommendation would be some extra tress or bushes to add more privacy from the road and surrounding neighbors. Good spot!

4 nights at Bay Forest Retreat

Easy to find, and exactly what I was looking for. The area for the 3 primitive tent sites and 2 Glamping tents was secluded enough that you felt you were in the wilderness but not so much that you were worried about not getting help or emergency services if needed. Each tent site had several places where you could set up and not have roots/rocks underneath you. Portapotty was close and clean. The garden shower was closer to the main site due to the needed access to running water. Everything was just as described and I did not feel mislead, no unpleasant surprises. Close drive to the main beach, restaurants, and stores. There were several bad thunderstorms while I was there and they checked with me to make sure I was aware and could let them know if I needed help.

Weekend Trip to Country Camping At The Beach

Me and my wife absolutely loved car/tent camping at Big Rig’s. They offer everything you may need and offer an unforgettable experience. Site is beautiful. Surrounded by the most beautiful goats, chickens and ducks. Their outdoor shower has an amazing view. Location is absolutely perfect. Just a few minutes away from the beach access and main Panama City attractions. Will definitely like to come back to Big Rig’s in the future.

Weekend Trip to 30A Bay Hideaway

Love camping on the bay. Everything is always well-kept and just as pictured. We really enjoy kayaking, bird watching, fishing,… we used a cast net to catch our own bait and caught fish off the dock. We saw crabs, stingrays, and even a gator swimming by this year. The sunrises and sunsets are great. This is one of our favorite places to camp. Thanks for sharing your great place!

Weekend Trip to Stay And Play The Cypress

I loved tent camping at this location! It was the perfect getaway. The hosts were amazing and we loved being so close to the water! Will definitely return!

Weekend Trip to FOB Pelican at Little Pelican Bayou

We had such a great time at little pelican! The airstream was awesome and the property was meticulously well kept. We enjoyed morning paddle in the kayaks.

Weekend Trip to The Wandering Path

Amanda the owner is awesome, but we loved Bella her 15 y/o pup the best! Great location easy to play on the river/creek, hike some trails, be relaxed in peace and beauty. We stayed at the rv spot- we didn’t have a 30min converter so she let us borrow one - great weekend on river

Weekend Trip to The Wandering Path

The host is amazing. She is very welcoming and attentive. The site is super clean and peaceful with enough room between sites to ensure privacy. Loved the covered outdoor kitchen area and the cedar walled restrooms. As for the waterfront: you just gotta go experience it! Thank you Amanda. P.S. we all loved Bella.

3 nights at The Wandering Path

beautiful spot! great shower and dishwashing area too… secluded enough for privacy and the river is amazing :)

2 nights at Milton & Blackwater Pit Stop

The place was easy convenient to nearby activities, after a long day of exploring and beaches. It’s nice to come back to camp here cause it’s quiet and relaxing. I stayed here for 2 nights. JJ was very very quickly responding to my questions, I highly recommend JJ camp. Thank you

Weekend Trip to Stay And Play The Cypress

We loved everything about this place! Liz and Rick are the perfect hosts! We car camped for one night overlooking the creek which was amazing to wake up to. The sites are very level, which made setting up camp a breeze! I was very impressed at how clean, family friendly (games like corn hole and more) and even a swinging rope if you wanted to get wet. The sites are well equipped with fire pits, grill and even grilling tools and the portapotties were convenient and clean. We missed out on canoeing due to thunderstorms, but love that we could do that right from the campground. The sites are well spaced so you can enjoy the serenity or go visit your neighbors if you are so inclined. They also have some beautiful trails and nature abounds. They also have plugins for recharging your phones in the community area. This was my first time camping in a long time, but thanks to such a positive experience, it won’t be my last time, or last visit here.

1 night at Malakai 🏕 different by design

Joe has an amazing spot you would be lucky to experience!

5 nights at Sand Between Your Toes

This is our second time staying at this property in the last year and a half in Robin our 32 foot Class C Jayco. There is a very large fence around the property for complete privacy from surrounding neighbors. We always bring our ebikes with us so we can visit our kids at a local resort property on the beach 2 miles away. Public beach access is less than one mile away. If we needed groceries, Publix is 1.1 miles away. There is sidewalk access everywhere including some local restaurants. Brian is a great host and always quick to respond to any questions we have. Thanks again Brian!!

3 nights at Stay And Play The Cypress

This place is amazing! The hosts are awesome and the whole set up is amazing. We loved camping next to the beautiful peaceful river and the canoe to the springs was breathtaking we had to do it again the next day, we got rained out the second day but we still had a great time. We definitely recommend! We will definitely be back when we come back to Florida.

1 night at The Wandering Path

Such a pretty spot, very quiet, clean and well-kept. Adorable bathhouse, also tidy and well-kept. Perfect place to get away and camp. Can’t wait to go back. 10/10

Welcome to Malakai campgrounds different by design 🏕 I purchased this land several years ago after a loss of a child a daughter her named was (little jo) JoLisa Marie Roadcap , it was a life changing moment, teaching me that family and enjoying of life is what it all about... so I want to welcome you here to Malakai for a peaceful and relaxing time, it's even a place that may help you heal from life hardships... At 5:30 just as the Sun comes up it is time for you to go out on to the deck and listen to the birds song 🎵 . As the Sun starts to rise on a new day ✨️ dozens of species of birds from the Great American Bald Eagle , To the endangered woodpecker, The blue herrings, bluebirds(we have mating pair that comes every year) blue jays, mocking birds, doves and several other species and occasionally a couple small black bears like walking through, we want you to have a peaceful and relaxing stay here while you visit everything,here at Garson Point were several species of carnivorous plants grow wild and our beaches have much to offer. It's official -- after 4 years of politics we are officially a park and a preserve.....9 acres of 🚶‍♂️ trails 👣 we are still constructing trails by hand I believe this place has a spiritual strength to people of all nations History of our location Count De Galvez awarded a land grant on Garcon Point to Antonio Garzon following his 1781 Siege of Pensacola in consideration of “his good services rendered as an interpreter to the Indians of Pensacola." The grant was held for 35 years before Maria Garzon, who survived husband Antonio, sold the land they called Garzon’s Point to Joseph (Jose) Bonifay. The land uses were favorable for cattle grazing and turpentining through the 1800s. Many more pioneer families moved into the area and began their own business in the booming industrial opportunities of western Florida. It came to be known as Yellow River Marsh State Buffer Preserve on June 12, 2000, when it was purchased by the state of Florida to protect rare and environmentally sensitive lands, plants and animals. Through generous donations, Preservation 2000 and the Florida Forever Program, more land was added to protect contiguous habitat of the Garcon Ecosystem. Today Yellow River Marsh Preserve State Park provides recreational opportunities for hiking and nature study along the Great Florida Birding Trail among rare and endemic plant species and within one of Florida’s oldest multi-cultural frontiers.The preserve is located in Santa Rosa County on Garcon Point, which separates Escambia Bay from Blackwater Bay. Nearly 20 rare and endangered species of plants 🪴 and animals make their homes along the bay and its wet prairies, dome swamps and flatwoods.

Camping near Destin guide

Overview

Take the dreamy sunsets and sugary sands of Florida’s Emerald Coast, throw in a bar and restaurant-lined harbor, a handful of golf courses, and a state park, and you’ve got Destin, one of the Panhandle’s most popular beach resorts. Perched on a peninsula between Choctawhatchee Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, sunseekers have a choice of beaches in Destin, where you can swim, snorkel, parasail, cruise the coast in search of dolphins, or cool off at a waterpark. RV parks, resorts, and campgrounds are dotted along the peninsula, or you can camp amid the sand dunes at Henderson Beach State Park.

Where to go

Emerald Coast

Sandy beaches and turquoise waters stretch along Florida’s aptly nicknamed Emerald Coast. East of Destin, Topsail Hill Preserve State Park and Grayton Beach State Park have popular coastal campgrounds, or you can head inland to hike, bike, and horseback ride in the Point Washington State Forest. A little further, check into an RV resort at Panama City Beach and enjoy water sports along the Grand Lagoon.

Gulf Islands

West of Destin, scenic barrier islands stretch all the way to the Alabama border. You can hike to coastal marshes and pristine beaches, then pitch your tent right on the sand at the Gulf Islands National Seashore. Or, seek out a secluded beach or fishing spot along Okaloosa or Santa Rosa islands.

Okaloosa County

Coastal parks, campgrounds, and boat launches pepper the shores of Choctawhatchee Bay, north of Destin. Heading inland, the rambling woodlands of Blackwater River State Forest provide plenty of opportunities for hiking, canoeing, and fishing, along with a choice of campgrounds.

When to go

Summer is peak season in Destin, when temperatures soar into the high 80s°F, and prices shoot up accordingly. Opt for a spring or fall visit to avoid the crowds—it will still be warm enough to hit the beach, and you can benefit from shoulder-season rates too. Many campgrounds stay open year-round, but be aware that seasonal activities and services may close down over winter.

Know before you go

Destin has plenty of supermarkets, restaurants, and gas stations, and you’ll find several shops selling camping and outdoor supplies.
Day-use fees apply in all Florida state parks, as well as campsite booking fees.
Stingrays are common in the Gulf from May through October, so take care when swimming, and always follow warning flags and local advice. Bug spray is equally a must for coastal camping.
