Getting Outdoors

With 168 miles of shoreline to explore along the Gulf Islands National Seashore, there’s plenty to keep you busy. Biking is a quickest way to traverse the beachy terrain, though on foot is acceptable too. In the Florida section of the seashore, there are four main areas (Fort Pickens, Naval Live Oaks, Perdido Key, and Santa Rose) with designated biking and walking paths. Many of the hiking trails are unpaved and wind you near the water. On the Mississippi side, long-distance bikers will be thrilled to know there’s a 15.5-mile loop. This is a great way to self-tour the area.

Camping at Gulf Islands National Seashore

Gulf Islands National Seashore campers are able to spend the night onsite with the waves as your lullaby. Fort Pickens and Davis Bayous campgrounds accept RV travelers. Both are open for year-round reservations and include a variety of campsite options. Most sites will have full hookups unless you opt for a non-electrical site. Amenities include flush toilets, showers, water, and a dump station, as well as full access to the surrounding natural world.

Exploring the Area

Pensacola is a fun Floridian city beaming with busy boardwalks, low-rise buildings, and delicious seafood. The Naval Aviation Museum and the Pensacola Lighthouse & Maritime Museum are fabulous ways to totally immerse yourself in the culture of the area. Or, just jump right in and hit the town! There are several options for kids to engage with their surroundings and even more for adults. Enjoy some freshly cooked crawfish while watching the sun dip behind the water.

The camper trailer was in excellent condition and was perfect for our family of 6! We had a great beach trip and hope to rent from Kris and Shelby again.

This camper is the real deal. It is absolutely amazing. Dana is very friendly and informative. This camper is stocked completely. It literally has everything! Just to name a few things…It is stocked with games, DVDs, towels, dishes, scissors, tape and etc….We were very impressed. It has a Bluetooth wireless system and you’re able to connect your phone and play music inside and outside. The TV’s inside the camper are all Roku. I was able to mobile hotspot and watch TV if we wanted. Another cool feature is all the built-in lights inside and outside the camper. It has two separate bedrooms and two bathrooms. Very spacious. Another plus is that it has an oven. It also has a vacuum and a broom. For being at a camp ground, it is nice to be able to clean up daily. She left snacks as a welcome gift! ❤️ The air conditioner worked great. It was 100+ degrees where we were and at times it was almost too cold. The outside features are phenomenal as well. It has a pull out flat top grill and sink. On the backside, it has a place to shower off. They also set up a very nice outdoor rug with chairs. The refrigerator and freezer worked great. This unit also has a Keurig! This was our first experience with Outdoorsy. Totally worth it! If we are ever back in the area, we will definitely rent from them.
