Top 20 Florida Keys RV Parks

Florida Keys RV parks are busy throughout the year, but they are especially hard to get in winter. Book early if you plan to visit from January through April.

The best bargains are state parks, where campground reservations are hard to get at any time of year, so it may be best to set your sights on private campgrounds. Be assured, you will pay top dollar.

There are dozens of private campgrounds throughout the Keys to dock your RV with full hookups, and there are even a few that accept tents. We also include a U.S. Navy campground for veterans.

Things to know…

Book early, especially for the three remaining state park campgrounds, which tend to get booked as soon as they become available up to 11 months in advance.

Unless you plan to be there to hunt for lobster, avoid the madness of the Florida Spiny Lobster sport mini-season, July 27-28, 2022, and the start of the regular season, August 6. There will be plenty of lobster left after mid-August, and the season doesn’t end until March 31.
