Top Truck Camper Beach Camping Spots in North America

One of the advantages of owning a truck camper is the ability to camp in locations that are not always possible in other type of RVs. Camping on the beach is one of those places that are ideal for truck camper owners. There are many great places for beach camping, or camping near a spectacular sandy beach, in a truck camper in North America so to help you get started planning your next truck camper beach adventure, here are a few suggested locations:

  1. Baja California, Mexico – With miles of pristine beaches and warm waters, Baja California is a popular spot for truck camper beach camping. Many of the beaches offer free camping, and there are plenty of spots to park your truck camper.
  2. Cape Lookout National Seashore, North Carolina – This undeveloped barrier island on the Atlantic Ocean is a great place for beach camping. There are three primitive campgrounds that can be accessed by vehicle, and you can camp right on the beach with your Northern Lite truck camper.
  3. Padre Island National Seashore, Texas – This 70-mile stretch of beach on the Gulf of Mexico is a popular spot for beach camping. There are five campgrounds that can accommodate truck campers, and you can camp right on the beach.
