About Fishing Campgrounds in Florida
Florida offers some of the most diverse and rewarding fishing camping experiences in the United States, where anglers can target freshwater bass in crystal-clear springs one day and pursue saltwater species along coastal waterways the next. From the cypress-lined rivers of the Panhandle to the subtropical waters of the Everglades, the Sunshine State provides year-round fishing opportunities that draw enthusiasts from across the country.
Best Time
Florida's fishing camping season varies by region and target species. For Central and North Florida lakes and springs, fall through spring (October to May) offers the best combination of comfortable temperatures, lower humidity, and active fish.
Activity Highlights

Tips & Recommendations
- 1Always obtain a valid Florida fishing license before your trip—available online through MyFWC.com or at sporting goods stores. Regulations vary between freshwater and saltwater, and some preserves have additional requirements, so review local rules carefully.
- 2Book electric sites early at popular campgrounds like Ortona South and Ocean Pond, as they fill quickly during peak season. For remote locations like Bear Island or Burns Lake in Big Cypress, bring all water, food, and supplies as no services exist for 20+ miles.
