Location! Location! Location! I don’t know that you can find a spot like this that seemingly has been carved out of the non-stop throng of beachside high-rises that dot the coastline here in NE Florida (and trust me, I’ve navigated the vast majority of the eastern coast of this Sunshine state, one delectable mile of seaside at a time!). While the actual location here is quite modest and incredibly simple – don’t expect a ton of amenities, beyond just the basics – you are here for predominantly one thing and one thing only: the most excellent access point to a simply stunning beachhead located just due north of the pristine, quaint village of Ormond-by-the-Sea. 

As for the camping outpost itself, this place is definitely on the smaller side of the accommodation equation, providing less than 3 dozen sites of varying length to accommodate just about any size of RV. One of the hands-down best amenities at Coral Sands is that this RV lot is connected to the Coral Sands Inn, so you will have access to all of the amenities of the hotel (think: oceanfront heated pool, scattered beach chairs and umbrellas as well as a signature gazebo, free WiFi, on-site laundry facility, bathrooms and showers, etc.). Back to the beachfront RV lot, all sites come with the standard water, electric (20 / 30 / 50 amp) hook-ups. There is also a handicap comfort station available for the disabled. 

Insider’s tips? Here’s a few: (1) If you find yourself lacking for anything, just due north of Coral Sands you’ll find a Publix and Dollar Tree, both of which are pretty well stocked up; (2) When you get tired of making every meal from either your on-board mini fridge or cooler and care to grab a slice of local fare, I recommend the fried yuca and Caribbean pork empanadas at Lulu’s Oceanside Grill or fresh fish tacos at The Tipsy Taco; and (3) With either your canoe or kayak entowe and looking for a place to dip your watercraft in, check out Fortunato Park that has a great access point for the Intracoastal. 

Happy Camping!
