Florida Keys campgrounds come in several varieties. For the most part, RV campers will find that most
Florida Keys campgrounds will accommodate their needs. Florida has extremely hot and humid weather
conditions for part of the year, so tent campers are not as common as they would be in many other parts of the
country. In general, the Florida Keys campgrounds seem to be geared towards RVers, but they do reserve spots
for tenters as well. Keep in mind, prices quoted can change at any time, and are also subject to an 11.5% tax.
