Boring campground. No shade at all. You can't stay here in the rainy, buggy summer months. Rarely see more than a handful of tents here. The A Loop is way nicer

Currently closed due to the abundance of rain Florida has been getting...Try as I might for the 6 mile hike to the campsite it was just to muddy and wet... Great for hiking with a good pair of boots and a walking stick, but trying to make your way with camping gear on your back is futile... But, you've got Flamingo Campground for $25 per night to pitch your tent and then take the hike...

Peak winter is when you can avoid bugs. Any other time you will get eaten alive. Great view of the bay and peaceful during the day and beginning of the night... Kids will come to party (why they come this far idk). Loud, inconsiderate, and with no nighttime park ranger presence, kids have to ruin everything don’t they

there are HOT SHOWERS there!!! If you have an option to camp in A or B loop on in walk in area - choose the walk in area. When I was here in late January it was almost empty - there were only three sites occupied. I put a tent right next to the water - there was breathe blowing the whole time - so I did not suffer from the mosquitoes at all. The view onto Florida Bay was stunning. You can also see dolphins right next to the shore every morning and night. The trail leading to the visitor center is close by and it is only half hour walk to the visitor center. And the most awesome thing is: HOT SHOWERS!!!! The bathroom next to the amphitheater has hot showers powered by solar panels.

I expected more from a national park. This is a large field of pokey grass, it didn't feel natural. I expect more from a national park. Nice views of the water, yes. You will only be waterfront tho if you are one of the first handful of people to stake your claim, otherwise your view is obstructed by other campers. Mosquitoes were not too bad, but sand fleas were bad. Price should NOT be the same as the drive-up sites in the other campground.
