AFB camping July 2021

Full hookups campsite with cable. Nice building with pool table, TV, games, laundry, bath and showers. The campground needs a little more TLC like mowing.

Reopened After Hurricane - Affordable, Close to the Water

The campground doesn't have as much shade or as many trees as it had before the hurricane in 2018, but it is back open for business and is a great place for military and veterans to park their campers short or long term.  There are also some small, elevated cabins back in business and a rec center/lounge area that can be reserved for groups, which includes a large kitchen (call ahead, may be closed due to COVID).  It's close to Tyndall AFB and the Tyndall marina (requires a drive, not directly connected) where you can rent kayaks, canoes, pontoon boats, jet skis, bikes, and more (again, call ahead to verify availability and whether reservations are required).  It's about a 15 minute drive from Walmart, Win Dixie, and a slew of restaurants both fast-food and regular.  A 20 minute drive will put you in Mexico Beach, a town devastated by the hurricane but well on it's way to recovery--a real gem.  A bit further away is Port St. Joe, a quaint Gulf-side town with restaurants, shops, parks, and more.

FAM Camp

Was damaged by Hurricane Michael and isn’t open for campers right now. Only Tyndall people are there due to housing shortage on base and in Panama City area

A nice getaway!

Tyndall's family camp offers all the amenities you hope for when camping. You can also simply tent camp if you prefer rather than camping in an RV. Its conveniently located near the base and also near the bay for fishing and other fun water recreational activities.

  • Here is a good video of the beach. It's also my son flying down it pretending he's a bird. 😊 But I uploaded it so people could see what the beach looked like.
