St. George Island - camping- recommendation?

[gh1950]

I want to go to Apalachicola -St. Georgia Island for a week or so this summer, before it goes so hot.

I want to take my tow behind camper. Don't much care as long as it has power and a dump station. Can't take the boat, so prefer somewhere with good access to shore fishing.

St. Joes o.k over to Panacea.

Want to avoid P.C., Destin, Pensacola. Other words big cities.

Everything you asked for and incredibly nice area. Camp right near the bay and a short drive across to the beach. You can rent a kayak or paddle board right down the road for the week to fish the bay with. I would recommend going in April or October if you're interested in catching a lot of fish.

Nice place and 25 min from SGI.

St. George state park. It is beautiful on that side of the island . You have the gulf on 1 side and the bay on the other to fish in.

St. Park is a great place to camp. Couple things...skeeters can be terrible and the coons are very smart. Do not leave anything out that they can get into. They can and will pop lids on containers.

If you cant get into sgi go to cape san blas, its the next island over, i like the camp sites not on the beach, my only complaint is that its not as dog friendly as sgi, but it seems like there were less people.

Cape San Blas and Indian Pass both nearby have camp sites

Apalachicola: A nice little drinking town with a fishing problem.

I've never camped on st. George, but I did rent a house there 1 vacation.
Absolutely the best vacation I ever had. I love st. George

I have fished St. George by boat and Appilachicola and great Sea Trout area. Lots of bugs if you plan it wrong, be aware. Not trying to steal thread but will be down in that area for a week during July 4th. Anybody fish the old bridge?
