About
Clearly sponsored for public camping by Cameron Parish Tourism Commission campground. Reservations: first-come dispersed beach camping; no reservation system. Free camping on the sand, advertised by the parish tourism commission rather than run as a numbered campground - there is no site count and no booking. Nearby Holly Beach and Mae's Beach were left unconfirmed because equivalent public camping authorisation could not be established.
