Big Lagoon SP is no more than 10 minutes from the west gate on FL 173/S Blue Angels Pkwy. Sites have power and water, dump station, nice showers and restrooms. This is the closest outside of the one on base. $20 per night plus taxes and fees.

Ft. Pickens is a 35 to 45 minute drive across two bridges and thru downtown traffic to the east gate at the Duncan Rd bridge.

This is an expensive alternative, as you pay a $20 entrance fee (good for 7 days) plus $40 per night camping fee. Water, power, dump station and nice showers and restrooms.

On base is Oak Grove RV Park, near the museum and lighthouse.
