From Interstate 95, exit at Exit 373 (Callahan/ Fernandina) and proceed east about 15 miles on Highway A1A. Turn right on Atlantic Avenue. The park entrance is about 2 miles ahead on the left.
I have to say we loved all of this park. We really enjoyed the resident volunteer at lot 21. He and his wife were friendly and welcoming.
What a lovely park. We stayed at the Atlantic RV Campground and it was pretty great. Cross the dunes and you’re on the beach! 25 minute beach walk will get you to Fort Clinch where for $2.50 you can explore the 170 year old fort. Tons life of wild life. Deer seem to really enjoy hanging out near the camp. Armadillos always seem to be crossing the road, please watch your speed around here. We saw a beautiful sea turtle while walking to the fort. Not too many bugs in the campground, because of the proximity to the ocean. We got spot # 10, which I think is the best spot in this campground with direct view of the dunes and the Atlantic. The bathrooms are cleaned every day, showers are spacious with good water pressure. While fishing off the beach you can catch red fish, drum, whiting, pompanos, etc. Oh and Georgia is just across the channel. Stark teeth hunting is big here, too! Awesome, knowledgeable staff. We loved our 4 days here and are definitely coming back!
Beachside camping at its best. The loop of campsites very convenient to access the boardwalk and very clean bath house. Wildlife all around. Walked the beach to the fort with deer on the beach and submarines to watch. Many looking for shark teeth. No swimming signs posted at beach access. Very popular campground, received a call from park ranger 10 minutes before checkout to see why we have not left yet.. new camper already waiting for our site.
A big thank you to the volunteers who are keeping this park so beautiful.
Super clean bathrooms/shower (except for the campers who leave it in a mess!!! 😞). The volunteers cleaned twice per day, 7 days a week.
Nice beach and plenty of trails to wander.
