Be aware of the tides and high tide line when choosing a beach campsite. Strong winds or storms can significantly elevate tides and create hazardous conditions along the Gulf Coast.
Stay at one of 48 water and electric campsites or 50 drive-up primitive sites. (The water and electric campsites are 1/3 mile from the beach.) We have portable toilets along two miles of the beach. Full restrooms and showers with hot water are located near the water-electric campground.

Good day- My name is John and my wife and I live in Dana, North Carolina... Just south of Asheville. Back in May, I had booked two(2) RV spots(one for us and one for dear friends coming in from California). I booked for a week, running from 5- 12 October, at a total(pre-paid) cost of$1,433. However, on Friday, 27 September(8 days before our trip), our region experienced Hurricane Helene. One hundred and twenty feet of our driveway was wiped out- totally washed away. The main road to our home was also washed away. Roads in and out of the area were destroyed and there were thousands of downed trees and power poles. The destruction was and remains hard to convey. We lost power and all communications for 13 days. We had no way in or out of our property for over a week. On Monday, 30 September, I was able to hike out to our local post office where I found I had one bar on my phone. I called family and friends, including the other couple that we were supposed to meet At the Firefly RV Resort. I explained the situation to them and asked them to call Firefly, cancel the reservation and,(given the circumstances) ask for a refund. The staff at Firefly were beyond rude and refused any consideration of a refund. When pressed on the matter by our friends, and stressing the dire conditions that all of North Carolina was facing, the Manager at Firefly told our friends the following-- and this is a direct quote:"Well, if the government would stop sending money to Ukraine, maybe they would have money to give to North Carolina." Enough said. I would strongly ask all conscientious RV-ers to BOYCOTT the Firefly RV Resort.
TravelerFirefly Coastal Bend Resort in Corpus Christi is the perfect getaway! The resort is incredibly family-friendly and pet-friendly, making it an ideal destination for everyone. The private beach is stunning, and the fishing spots are fantastic for those looking to relax by the water. The staff is amazing—always helpful and welcoming—and the management company is doing a phenomenal job keeping everything running smoothly. We can’t wait to come back and make even more memories here!

It was a very short visit—one night. The campsite we stayed in had only a 50-amp connector, even though we needed thirty amps. We didn't test the receptacle to see if they were sending 30 amps through a 50-amp plug. The campground is very close to the Gulf. The beach is divided into three sections; the center is for people only. The left and right sections four wheel drive vehicles can drive on the beach until 10 pm. There are no issues at all, but you are not allowed to drink alcohol on the beach. I expect the fine would be steep but we didn't see any rangers at night. You can ⛺ camp at night. We drove on the beach without a four-sprinter—mostly packed sand. If you are going to take risks, I would check the tides. Our sprinter is heavy. If we got stuck, we would have to call a wrecker, which would have been pricy. We were one of two B vans camping. All of the 4 by-4 were light and would probably not be able to pull us out. We don't have max tracks or a winch. The park has day passes for 7 dollars, the campsite was between 20 through 30 dollars.

The price was right and I had water and electric hookups, but basically I was in a parking lot and all the grass around is full of briars. Made it really hard to walk the dog. Proximity to the beach was also really, if only the weather was a little better. The showers are a quarter pay situation and I paid $1.50 for a cold shower. When I went to ask the front office about it, they basically said "sometimes you have to run the sink for a minute". Sorry, but I am paying quarters for a shower that never gets warm that's a big dissapointment and then to met with indifference about it, hence the two stars. I also don't like that you don't get to pick your spot, you just show up, pay and they tell you where you are staying. It was the off season, so maybe things are better in full swing summer.

We've spent many winter months around the Corpus Christi, Texas area and visit South Beach frequently. Plenty to do; fishing, sunbathing, bird watching, photography, and on some evenings after dark you can spot deer and coyote come out of the sand dunes to feed on seaweed and fish remains. We prefer to camp at nearby Malequite campground for $5 a night with water, bathrooms and showers. The visitor's center has some supplies.
GuideThe camp ground’s only redemption is the closeness to the national park. There is really nothing there that would you wanna stay there except for that. Next time I would rathe stay at a camp ground one hour drive away from the national park in exchange for a better site.
TravelerStaff was great! Beach was amazing! Loved it!
Traveler
Pull up, pick your spot, set up camp and enjoy. I suggest bringing fresh water to rinse off. Make sure you look at the beach to make sure you're not in reach of the tide. Those are probably the 2 most important things.
Traveler
Tight clean camp site. Laundry was clean and reasonably priced. Hot tub and pool were not a great experience.
Traveler
Beautiful sunrise and nice weather. Very pleasant and peaceful.
Guide
Easy access to beach. Well kept area. No hookups but bathrooms, showers, dump station available.
GuideIf you want to be close to the beach and have electric and water hook ups this is the campground! The sites are a little close and nothing fancy but they are close enough to walk to the beach. The bathrooms were clean and the camp hosts were very friendly. The showers were clean but terrible pressure and you had to keep pushing the button in to keep the water running. They did the job but it wasn't very enjoyable. The location is very convenient to exploring the nearby towns and Padre Island. The price is reasonable. I would stay here again.
RangerAwesome place to pull up the beach, listen to waves and make a fire. No trash collection so make sure you pack it out. Also, I did see some rats or something running around the dunes so just be aware
GuideArrived the afternoon of July 4th and waited until day crowd left to choose our campsite - have to go to the right for camping - only 3 cars on the camping stretch - Sandy but totally worth the effort! A bit windy. Bought shrimp at a local seafood market on the way in. Bathroom/shower was okay - but we were very grateful for it! Only frustration was the knucklehead who wanted to film himself doing 360s in his truck … thankfully that only lasted 2 minutes. Also, took the ferry over from the north and left via Corpus Christi to the south.
TravelerEasy campsite, good amenities, office open until 10:30pm. walk to the beach from your tent! Lots of beautiful birds - ibis, spoonbill, pelicans
ScoutIf you come her, don’t get the cheat site. No shade! Trees everywhere else but here. They have a swimming pool but nobody is using it! Don’t know why. It’s the middle of June!!
GuideGood beach camping! Hiking up the dunes in the evening and morning for wonderful sunrises and sets.
Its a beach, soft sand, peaceful, breezy. We had a good time and would go back.
TravelerThis place is centrally located near a lot of services and activities. There's lots of pavement, which is not a huge selling point, but the dust is greatly reduced as a result. There's a small swimming pool and a large laundry. Bathrooms and showers are very clean. Personnel are very accommodating. There's a mix of short and long term residents. There's a decent amount of walking within the park, but outside the park is not that great. I didn't feel terribly safe. There are dogs running around without humans present and some homeless in the local park. The car wash next door is a great value and I was able to get my truck with extra high canopy washed for cheap. All in all, I thought it was a good place to stay.
TravelerWaking up to the ocean is a dream come true at Mustang island. The park has 4 designated areas. Close to the entrance and facilities there’s a camp ground with water and electric hookups those are reserve only so make sure if you want that you reserve in advance. Primitive camping is a bit down the way to the right this is where primitive campers can find a nice spot if the day users are crowding the area. There’s portal potties, picnic tables and trash bins day uses tend to navigate to the primitive camping area and take up the picnic tables. Then there’s day use that’s straight ahead from the entrance there’s a big portal potty at the parking lot and a path to the beach. Then there is fisherman pass this is a drive on beach with a few pavilions and tables and the jetty. The park is cleaned every morning and midday by the park staff and park rangers. The staff really does put in a lot of work to keep the beaches and facilities clean. Its $5 per head and $10 for primitive camping and $20 for the hook up campsites. The park usually keeps the beaches at a decent occupancy putting up signs when it’s getting full and won’t let you in. After 6 the non paying people start to flood in at the primitive side during the summer. Make sure to bring lots of sun block and baby powder.

Seawind RV Resort is a nice, no-frills RV resort in Riviera, Texas on Baffin Bay. The park is adjacent to the waterfront park, beaches, boat launches, and fishing piers. Our site has views of the bay. The RV park offers large FHU sites with 50 amp. They take Good Sam discount and Passport America, which we used. The staff is friendly and the park is clean. We will definitely stay here again.

GuideSmooth check in, site #22 at 2:30 pm. Spacious concrete pad, full hook up 50 amp. At about 8:40pm we heard a loud report, similar to a shotgun blast. The whole park lost power, i think a transformer blew up. Hooked up to my generator as several other campers did the same. Electrical power was restored at 10:45 pm.
TravelerWe stayed here for 2 months prior to moving. The park is nothing fancy as far as scenery goes, however, the people and community here is top notch. The park is close to H-E-B and not too far from multiple beaches.
GuideGreat Spot! Glad O stayed for a night.
TravelerThis is a national park. $25 to enter or free with the America the Beautiful pass. The campground is $14/day or $7 with the park pass. What I didn't know before I got here is that there's free camping right on the beach just after the visitor center. 14 day max stay.
ScoutNever got tired of hearing the ocean waves a few yards away. The several camp hosts and park staff do a great job of keeping the park and facilities nice.
GuideEasy to get to and plenty of room right on the beach. There is no sign but google maps will take you right to the turn off. Ignore the sign that says entering fee area. I confirmed with Ranger that its a free area. They just ask that you fill out the slip at kiosk so they can keep track of the 14 day rule.
