Camping

Amistad National Recreation Area offers several different types of camping opportunities:

  • Designated Camping – RV and tent camping in limited development campgrounds. None of the designated camping sites have water or sewer hookups.
  • Backcountry – Most are only accessible by boat and must be at least ¼ mile away from a developed area. Please note that park visitors are required to carry out all solid human waste and toilet paper from backcountry areas of the park in a commercially produced spill-proof and trash container safe waste bag system, or with a dump-station compatible waste system. Doing so will maintain visitor health and safety, preserve the water quality, and reduce other environmental impacts. Please help us protect your park!
  • Group Campsites – Large, designated campsites suitable for large groups.

Though most of the park's campsites will accommodate RVs, there are no hookups. An RV dump station with potable water is available only to those camping within Amistad National Recreation Area campgrounds. It is located along the road to the Diablo East boat ramp. San Pedro Campground is best suited for larger RVs. To learn more about camping in Amistad National Recreation Area, visit the park's Camping page.
