Elliott Key Campground

✅ BOOK IF: You have reliable boat access and want genuine waterfront island camping. You're prepared for minimal amenities—cold showers only, no hookups, uneven natural terrain. You can navigate a 2.5-foot shallow marina entrance. You want absolute solitude and can pack all supplies self-sufficiently. ❌ SKIP IF: You need hot showers or laundry facilities. You have an RV or trailer (no vehicles allowed). You require cellular service or need ADA-accessible facilities. You can't reliably access boats or prefer close proximity to mainland resupply.

Tent-only

Waterside views

Arrive by boat to Elliott Key Harbor (2.5 feet minimum depth at low tide). Select from 20 waterside or partially forested tent sites. Expect uneven, unpaved ground—bring sturdy stakes for variable soil. All gear and supplies must come by boat; no on-site resupply available. Cold water showers only.

Remote island campground with minimal amenities and zero vehicle traffic. Only boat noise and marine wildlife. Waterfront and partially forested sites with natural, uneven terrain. This is true back-country camping—rugged, solitary, and entirely dependent on your boat access.

Cold water showers available at restrooms (no heated water). No laundry facilities—plan multi-day trips accordingly; pack extra clothing.
