What campers say

South Beach Campground offers straightforward, first-come/first-serve oceanfront camping with many sites right next to the water. Sites typically include a picnic table and fire ring; restrooms are present but there are no hookups, showers, or running water, and power is not provided. Check-in/self-registration is simple and nightly fees are low (about $20). Expect strong surf noise, good ocean views and occasional wildlife sightings, but also frequent cool, wet and windy conditions and driftwood-strewn access to the beach. Visitor services can be limited at times, so plan accordingly.
