 Fort Pickens Campground

Fort Pickens Campground is situated on Santa Rosa Island, a part of the Gulf Islands National Seashore south of Pensacola and Gulf Breeze, Florida. Visitors (who might be looking for camping near New Orleans) enjoy the seashore for its great recreational activities, historic sites and unique white sand beaches.

 Recreation

 Many visitors young and old come to Fort Pickens to enjoy its scenic location on the beach. The white sands of Santa Rosa Island are the perfect place for a long walk or an afternoon of building sandcastles. The warm ocean waters are great for swimming and snorkeling. 

 Fishermen will find a pier just a short distance from the picnic pavilions. It can be used by visitors without a Florida fishing license. Many hiking trails through the sand dunes provide beautiful views and hours of exploration. 

 Historic Fort Pickens, a pentagonal fort built to defend Pensacola Bay in 1834, is just 1 mile from the campground. The structure was fortified after the War of 1812 and was one of four forts in the South never occupied by Confederates during the Civil War.

 Facilities

 This large campground is open for reservations year-round. It contains 137 family sites with electric and water hookups, as well as 41 non-electric tent sites. A group site with water hookup is also available. Amenities include flush toilets, showers, drinking water and a dump station. There are no boat ramps in the Fort Pickens area.

 Natural Features

 The campground is located on a barrier island between the Gulf of Mexico and Pensacola Bay. Groves of live oak trees are scattered across the island, providing shelter for resident and migrating bird populations, as well as shade for park visitors. 

 The Gulf Islands National Seashore is home to sparkling blue waters, white beaches and coastal marshes. However, more than 80% of the national park is underwater, as it's a vital protective habitat to marine life.

 Nearby Attractions

 The campground is a short distance from restaurants and beach nightlife, downtown Pensacola, the Pensacola Naval Air Station and Naval Aviation Museum, the Pensacola Lighthouse and other historic sites. Campsites are within 1/4 mile of the beaches of the Emerald Coast of the Gulf of Mexico and Pensacola Bay.

Fort Pickens Campground

We stayed in three sites in April 2021: 27, 6, and 64.  This campground is in a nice location and has many good features: many beautiful trees and plants, spacing between sites, clean bathhouses, etc.  Unfortunately , many of the trails are closed long-term, probably since Hurricane Sally.  Moreover, it’s an older campground and many of the sites aren’t level and are sandy.  That made big trouble for us in site 64:  our sprinter van got stuck in the sand and he had to call AAA to get a tow truck to get us out.   We aren’t the only ones: I saw another family’s vehicle stuck with spinning tires the night before and there were other sites with tread marks from possibly similar situations.   The park has recognized the problem  and has cement pads or better hard surface leveling in some sites, but not all.  Bummer.  

Nice spot but....

Love it 

We stayed at Big Lagoon for two nights in late January - site 55. The campsites are not as nice as other FL State Parks we have stayed in. The site was sand and was not level - we needed leveling blocks for our 21’ RV. Some of the sites looked more level than others - as long as you have blocks, you should be fine. The site was not as private as we’ve had in other parks - separation on only one side. We could clearly see our neighbors in the other side, as well as the folks across the road from us. Again, some sites are more private than others. What this park does have, however, are beautiful boardwalks. Most of them are closed right now due to hurricane damage, but there are a couple you can walk on a little. And they have a great sand hiking path - again, one section is closed due to a bridge being out, but it was a nice hike nonetheless. When the repairs are complete of the boardwalks and trails, this would be an amazing state park with a pretty good campground.
