Fort De Soto Park is a 1,136-acre park spread across five interconnected islands (keys) at the mouth of Tampa Bay. Named after a Spanish explorer, the park features 7 miles of waterfront, a historic fort, and consistently top-rated beaches.
What to Expect: Large, well-maintained campsites with full hookups. Many sites back up to the water. The park has two swim beaches, two fishing piers, and a 7-mile paved trail perfect for biking.
Best Sites: Waterfront sites on the bay side face the sunset. Sites 1-85 are closest to the water.

Getting to Fort De Soto Park Campground.
This site takes rigs up to 45 ft, which is a question about the vehicle rather than the pad. The nearest pickup point for a rented one is Tampa.

Nothing in Florida is bookable today. Dated requests are what we take to owners, so give us the window you actually want — you get one email the day a rig covers it, and nothing else.
