Huguenot Campground

Can you imagine a campground where you can wake up to the sound of waves crashing and watch massive ships glide past, all while surrounded by the unspoiled beauty of coastal North Florida? Huguenot Memorial Park in Jacksonville offers just that, with a vibrant blend of beachfront camping, serene nature, and unique proximity to maritime activity.

This waterfront campground features 71 sites, including options with electric hookups, picnic tables, fire rings, and access to clean restrooms and showers. While privacy between sites may be limited, the breathtaking Atlantic Ocean and St. Johns River views more than make up for it. The park's sandy beaches are its centerpiece, offering opportunities for swimming, fishing, and surfing, while a family-friendly beach with calmer waters is perfect for relaxation. On-site amenities like a playground, picnic shelters, and a boat launch enhance the family experience, and the park is part of the Great Florida Birding Trail, making it a haven for birdwatchers.

Located about 30 minutes from downtown Jacksonville, the park is easily accessible and offers a distinctive atmosphere shaped by its proximity to a naval base, where the occasional sound of helicopters adds a touch of excitement. With soft sand requiring 4-wheel drive for beach driving, Huguenot Memorial Park is particularly suited for active beachgoers and nature enthusiasts seeking a blend of adventure and tranquility.
