Summer delivers the warmest Gulf water and the longest beach days. Daytime highs run 85 to 92°F, water temps climb to 78 to 86°F. It's peak season for families and day visitors, which means full parking and the occasional wait at the single entrance gate. Summer also overlaps with tropical storm season and sea turtle nesting from May through August. Spring and fall bring quieter crowds but still draw plenty of campers. The park stays open year-round, though winter water temps drop enough to make swimming less appealing.
Peak season with warm weather, perfect for water activities. Book early.
