Best Time to Camp at Annutteliga Hammock Unit Primitive Camp Zone

Blessed with Florida's signature mild temperatures and predominantly dry conditions, Annutteliga Hammock welcomes outdoor enthusiasts year-round. Spring and fall offer the most comfortable camping experiences, though savvy visitors should come prepared for nature's smaller residents—ticks and mosquitoes make their presence known, particularly during warmer months. During hunting season, the forest takes on a different character, so campers should plan accordingly and wear appropriate safety colors.
