Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Grayton Beach State Park adventure.
A unique Gulf Coast paradise with clear jewel waters and rare coastal dune lakes.
With one mile of sugar-white sand fronting the emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico, it’s easy to see why the waterfront at Grayton Beach State Park is consistently rated one of the most beautiful beaches in America. This popular Florida state park offers a convenient campground for RV and tent camping, a separate cabin site, and 2,200 acres that include Western Lake, a rare coastal dune lake found in only a few locations worldwide. A convenient boat ramp allows visitors to go paddling and kayaking in the brackish waters, while anglers can try their luck in both fresh and saltwater. Go hiking or biking on nature trails that wind past massive sand dunes, salt marshes, and a thick coastal forest of magnolias, scrub oaks, and pine flatwoods, teeming with birds and other wildlife.
The full-facility Grayton Beach Campground offers 59 sites, with restrooms, hookups, and dump stations. The cabin site is located around one mile west.
Summer is the busiest season at Grayton Beach State Park, with high temperatures, large crowds, and ranger-led programs. Consider visiting in the spring or fall, when the weather is still pleasant but the crowds thin out. Expect peak season fees for cabin rentals from February through July. Sea turtle nesting season runs from May to October and may lead to restricted areas on the beach. Be sure to check the weather before confirming plans if traveling during hurricane season, from June to November.
