St. Andrews State Park

St. Andrews State Park is a true gem on Florida’s Gulf Coast! The pristine beaches with powdery white sand and crystal-clear waters are perfect for swimming, sunbathing, and relaxing. The park offers a variety of activities, from hiking trails and kayaking to snorkeling and fishing. Shell Island, accessible by shuttle, is a must-visit for its untouched beauty and abundant wildlife. The park is clean, well-maintained, and the staff are friendly and helpful. Whether you’re camping, picnicking, or just spending the day, St. Andrews has something for everyone. It’s a perfect spot for nature lovers and families. Highly recommend

Wow what a great place to visit and camp. We will definitely be back. The camping area itself was very nice. Hot shower and laundry on site. Staff were very nice. The beach very clean and water very clear. It was colder when we stayed but did not mind due to everything being on point at this campground. Love love love

Is really torn up right now. They are making a lot of improvements, getting ready for the 2025 season. Lots of detours and closed roads. If you can wait a few months to visit, I would do so. We were there to take the ferry to Shell Island. If you enjoy collecting shells on an unspoiled beach. It's worth the trip. We had a wonderful time and collected some beautiful shells.

We thoroughly enjoyed the pristine beaches. We parked at the end near the jetty and rented a beach wheelchair for my 96yo mom. There are two wheelchair access paths on this one parking lot. The beach wheelchair was fairly easy for us oldsters (72 & 68) to push on the loose sand and easier on the damp sand. What an enjoyable adventure!

We visited with our airstream. The park is having some major construction being done but the campground is not really affected. The sites are small but nicely laid out with gravel so they are clean. No real shade except on a few sites on the west loop. We were there during one of those motorcycle events so the town was a bit crowded and noisy. The beach was lovely. It’s not much on being in nature however. There was one trail that was very short with mosquitoes around alligator Lake. Saw a few deer. We prefer a park that isn’t surrounded by so much touristy stuff but I did enjoy my morning walks as the sun rose up over the horizon. The bathrooms were very clean and well maintained. It was nice to have water and sewer on site with no separate dumping required. If you get a chance and you are there on a week day, and you close to raw nature check out the local springs. Williford, Pitt and Sylvan Springs.

Such an incredible place to visit the beaches of Panama City! The sand, the water, the waves, and the breeze was phenomenal. They go above and beyond to keep the beaches clean and the shells on the beach were great as well. Enjoyed a whole day out on the beaches with the family and had some great pictures at the end. The bathrooms were clean and working. Showers on the walkways were fantastic and there were four in our area that worked great in helping to get the fine white sands washed off before loading into our vehicle. I highly recommend going to visit the beach and ocean for the day for sure!!!

Wow I can’t say enough about this amazing park. Everything is so new and clean and just overall amazing. It’s a 5 minute or less bike ride to an amazing beach too. Our spot was flat and in excellent shape. Love this place

Great place to relax and walk and see God’s creation! Plenty of trails and beach. Beautiful white sand and marvelous dunes! (Please show some respect and don’t play on the dunes! Stay on designated recreation areas!) Great views of the Gulf o’Murrica! There are a few small shops and a place to grab some food, although we just came to walk around. There is a large pond, aptly named Gator Lake. Stick around and you’ll probably see some wildlife!
