Fort De Soto Park, Florida

Fort De Soto Park, Florida

Fort de Soto Park is in the St. Pete / Clearwater area and has been a Dr. Beach top pick in the past; several other beaches in the area have been top choices, too.

Campers can book online for a 238-site family camping area with amenities. History buffs will like Fort de Soto's vintage cannons and  historical museum.

The St. Pete / Clearwater area  has a bunch of fun activities: shelling, Turtle Walks on the beach, pirate ship cruises -- read more at TWKids.
