Camping in the South: Fort Pickens NP, Florida

Welcome to site C007.... I'm guessing the smallest site they have... LOL We made it work though. Almost didn't get to come, but this site come open (someone cancelled) and I was able to jump on the reservation. Beggars can't be choosers. That tree / over grown bush helped to give a little shade.

This is the back beach if you will, facing the bay side. It was pretty neat, we stumbled on a old sunken row boat along the shore. It must have been Jack Sparrow's Dinggy.

This tree was directly across the road from our site, it just screams "CLIMB ME" .... Of course we hadn't even got the camper setup yet and the kids were doing just that.

Below is one of the bath houses. This one was in our loop C. They had just finished remodeling it. Pretty nice if I do say so.... Private shower rooms and ceiling fans.

They have a pretty well stocked CG store. Your not going to find steaks, but alot of camping stuff and it was only a short ride to pickup ICE and Ice Cream.....Which always taste better when "Its On The House".... . They have laundry machines behind the store.

Meet "Stan Lee" he had a nice cool ride on a hot day from Joe Patties fish market. We even treated him to a hot tub party in his honor..... I don't think he liked it too much....:)

The long board walk across from the CG store that leads to the beach.....

Nothing better than twilight beach walks, my favorite time of the day.....

There is some really nice coral trails between the campground and the Old Fort.

At the Fort Area they have a museum that tells you the history of the fort and of the area, pretty neat to find out why the sands are so white.... it came from the granite of the Appalachian Mts.
