It’s not just every day that you can camp right along some of the clearest water in the state of Florida. Henderson Beach State Park, which is smack dab in the beautiful town of Destin, is one of the most majestic campgrounds in the state. Not only do visitors get to camp along Florida’s panhandle, but the only thing separating their campsite from the Gulf is a beautiful 30-foot white sand dune. Who’s ready to camp?!

Each of the campsites offers privacy and seclusion, with little alcove campgrounds mere steps from the beach. For RVs, you can pull through or back-in, and then be surrounded by natural vegetation.

One of the reasons why this campground is so popular is because of the direct access to the beach.
