Everglades National Park
The beach camp sites on the western side offer a nice breeze and more privacy. Locate your campsite away from vegetation to minimize your impact in this fragile area.
Safely exploring a wilderness by water requires careful preparation and planning.
Camp along the western shoreline, but be aware of shallow water and limited access at low tides. Make sure your vessels are tied, beached, or anchored securely.
There is deep water around the northern side. On the west side is a quiet, secluded beach only accessible by canoe/kayak due to the shallow waters. Use dead/downed wood below storm surge line. No facilities. Pack out all trash and bury human waste 6”. Vault toilet on nearby Picnic Key

This is one of the sweetest spots in the Everglades. It sits on the boundary of the national park and looks out across the 10,000 Islands and it's right at the mouth of the Gulf of Mexico. I often paddled from inland waters (creeks and swamps) all the way out to the Gulf and then back in. This spot is generally the last stop before I head back inland. It is reservable by permits only and is a popular spot in the north end of the park, mainly because there just are many land sites available.
The views from here are incredible and the night sky amazing (despite the glow of Miami in the distant). The beach can be challenging to launch from if the winds are kicking, but usually you can find a spot to push off. There is ample wind right on the beach that can keep the bugs at bay.
