Boat access only defines this backcountry camping experience on Florida's remote northwest cape. Campers must navigate to the site and select their own spot above the high tide line, as the tide retreats dramatically throughout the day. The National Park Service allows campfires on the beach, and campers often use fires and torches to manage the intense bug pressure that arrives after sunset.
No established facilities exist here—no tables, fire rings, or designated campsites. David P. warns that no-see-ums penetrate cheaper tent screens with ease, making quality gear essential. For those exploring places to camp near Everglades National Park, this represents true wilderness camping. Reservations are available through the National Park Service, and pets are prohibited.
