We decided to take a last minute trip to Rockport Texas. We would like a campground on the beach in Rockport or not too far out of Rockport so we can go into town and enjoy some of the seafood restaurants. So we would like your suggestions on a campground in Rockport on the beach. We have a 25 foot travel trailer and will be going from Monday through Friday of next week. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

We frequently stay in Blue Lagoons RV Resort on North Fulton Beach Drive, Rockport. The park is bayfront and is within just a short trip of everything Rockport has to offer. Do an internet search for the phone number (not sure I can post it here).There's a new trolly (bus) system that Rockport has implemented that stops just down the street from the park. There are also cabs available to and from the numerous restaurants and bars.

There are no campgrounds on the beach! You would need to go to Port-A for that. There are a few on the Bay. Copano Bay RV Resort, our RV park Bahia Vista RV Park, and Blue Lagoons (basically a parking lot). There is also Goose Island SP across the new causeway. We live here so PM if you want additional info. or have more ?'s!

My suggestion is to get a good campground directory that would allow you to peruse the possibilities at your leisure in case the answers from this Forum are not complete or satisfactory.If the latter is true try also doing a Google search for `rockport tx campgrounds' and see what you get.

Ancient Oaks! Nice place, location and price.

I'd avoid shady sites in the trees due to all the rain we've had lately. Must be a bumper crop of mosquitoes in the wooded sites by now.

Two votes for Beacon. Good 'N cheap!

Wharf fishing and bait shop right across the street, with complimentary access for Beacon RV Park tenants.

Walking distance to Walmart Supercenter and H.E.B. Grocery store right next door to the Walmart. No sidewalks though to the Walmart.

The HEB and Walmart or almost a mile apart! Not right next door?????
Actually they are right next door. We're talking about Texas here!

If you camp on the bay front at Goose Island you will more than likely have your rig drenched in salt spray. If you notice, all the oak trees point north because of the prevaling south winds.

If you do not need FHU's go get a site on the bay at Goose Island. It is a great place to stay and fish right out the door of your camper. You will still be close to town.

We visited that area. It's very relaxing and beautiful. Here are some pics of where we stayed. For "on the beach" camping, try Goose Island. The pics of me fishing are from the front door of our coach...Dennis
