Best Time to Camp at Wekiwa Springs State Park Campground

One of the spring's magical qualities is its constant 72°F temperature—a refreshing escape on sweltering summer days and a surprisingly comfortable swim spot during cooler months. The park welcomes visitors every single day of the year from 8 a.m. until sundown, so you can plan your camping adventure for whenever it fits your schedule, whether you prefer spring wildflower season, summer water adventures, or the crisp days of fall and winter.
