Take a day trip to coastal wonders of Treasure Island on a camping trip to Central Florida.
Treasure Island, a jewel along the Gulf Coast, is a beach town full of water sports and activity; however, there is no camping available in town specifically. Instead, it’s easy to settle down at the Madeira Beach KOA or in one of St. Petersburg’s luxurious RV resorts that include amenities like full hookups, free wifi, and an adult-only hot tub. Tent sites and cabin rentals are also available here. St. Pete’s offers private campsites next to Boyd Hill Nature Preserve. Amenities are limited but the views are abundant. A boat ride away is Caladesi Island State Park, an unspoiled paradise of pristine beaches, nature trails, and kayaking routes through mangrove forests. Or travel an hour away to Honeymoon Island State Park—with its beautiful beaches, nature trails, and bird observation areas, it’s ideal for sunbathing or hiking the Osprey Trail. Stay at public campgrounds and RV parks in Tampa with full hookups and a dump station, or reserve a private pet-friendly yurt in the city instead.
