Boca Chita Key Campground Details
Park visitors are welcome to camp at Biscayne National Park and have two islands to choose from, one of which is Boca Chita Key, the park's most popular island. Boca Chita Key has an open, waterside, grassy camping area, along with grills and picnic tables. You'll be roughing it for the most part, though: toilets are available on the island, but there aren't any sinks, showers, or drinking water. Camping in Biscayne National Park requires a $25 fee for each overnight stay, and reservations are not accepted; camping on Boca Chita Key is first-come, first-served. All camping and docking fees are waived May 1-September 30.
