908 Reviews

Bagdad, Florida has several good camping spots nearby. Camp Robbins on Eglin Air Force Base has full hookups and is close to stores and restaurants. Big Lagoon State Park Campground gives you nice views of the coast and lots to do outdoors.

These campgrounds have family-friendly features like playgrounds and picnic tables. Spring and fall are the best camping seasons around Bagdad when the weather isn't too hot or cold. The summer gets pretty hot in this part of Florida, so bring plenty of water and shade if you camp then. You can drive right up to most campsites on paved roads, though it's smart to check conditions after rainstorms. These places work well for both RVs and tent camping. Pack everything you might need since some of these campgrounds have limited stores or supplies. The natural areas around Bagdad make for a great camping trip.
