Anastasia State Park Campground

Anastasia State Park is an amazing campground. I'd place it among the best I've been to. The sites are dry and sandy, no Florida swamp yuck and thus not so many mosquitoes (but there are no see-ums at night). All of them have shade and are surrounded by a ring of greenery for your privacy. The also have personal water spigots, that's something you don't see to often. The beach is beautiful and uncrowded. The waves can be a bit rough.

You will be within a few minutes drive of many fine restaurants. There was also a funky cheap taco cart at the park entrance when I stayed there. I recommend going to the mainland to get a hyppo pop (gourmet popsicle that comes in good flavors like peach bourbon), and dining at the Floridian restaurant.

You can often book Anastasia the day of (due to cancellations and other factors)
