What a wonderful state park. The views and sunset were beautiful. We snorkeled in the crystal clear water and saw fish, lobster, and conchs. We also rented kayaks. We highly recommend this park.

Great no-frills camping surrounded by beaches, good fishing and easy access to scenic areas and walking "trails". If the wind is blowing too hard on one beach, use the other one, they are only a short few minute walk from each other. The beaches are kept natural for environmental reasons and may disappoint those looking for manicured sand. If so, turn around and go back to Miami and join the other 50,000 people on the beach.
I really enjoyed the daily sunset conch shell horn blowing, announcing the official sunset of the day. I bought my own horn on a trip to Key West and joined in on the fun that evening. Great, friendly camp hosts and staff topped of the overall enjoyment of the place. We will be back.

We love this campground we have stayed in many different sites on the water where the Atlantic Ocean & the Gulf meet. Kayak right from your site or drive it over to the beach side on the Atlantic & put in there. We have water and electric with a dump station onsite. The water is so pretty there great snorkeling and swimming. The Manatees hang out near site # 13 a big site on the water yet not the best view. There is a place people can dock there boats, a fish cleaning table there and when you run the water the Manatees come up & drink the fresh water. They have a nurse shark that hangs there too. Mile Marker 37 your close to Key West. If you on the water closer to A1A bridge you do hear traffic, facing the other bridge (the old bridge) on weekends it can get loud during the day at the swim beach. By far a great place to camp.
You can catch lobster off the campground if you know how & you snorkel or dive watch out for the current the tides change & become stronger.
The campground does snorkeling trips they have a big cat boat I believe they do 2 trips a day. You can take the little trolley trip to the Sandspur campground (Primitive) which is being restored it could take a year or 2.
You can fish off your waterfront site or float on a noodle or tube and hang out. The bath house is being redone Hurricane Irma took out the sandspur campground & the bath houses. This park is in the middle keys lots of great eats & things to do. There is a Winn Dixie on Big Pine (has great Key lime pie by Mikes Pies) & a Walmart the other direction. The Keys Fishery raw bar has a great Happy Hour with Shrimp, Mussels, stone crab claws when in season, and lots more. A sunset toast provided by the bar everyday at sunset. The lower portion of the Fishery has fried food & other options for eating. The Sunset grill on Marathon has a great crab soup, lobster tacos and more with a great view of the water/sunset & a pool. Porky's has a good breakfast, I'm sure other food too just went for breakfast.

We grumbled the price of staying here, but it was the cheapest spot in the Keys and after driving past some RV resorts probably the nicest.
We booked at the last minute so got an RV/tent spot and we weren’t able to stake down our tent with aluminum stakes but it was fine. There was a bathroom and showers.
Although some of the park was closed due to hurricane damage, there was a nice beach from which to watch the sunset and an old bridge trail.
Despite the number of people it was very quiet.

Earl, my canine companion, and I arrived here on November 11 for a 5 night stay on a waterfront site. I had made this reservation exactly one year prior.
Check-in was hassle free. Some areas of this State Park are still closed due to Hurricane Irma and the Park Rangers provided information about this on arrival.
Our spot -- site 23 -- was located on the water along the northwest shore. Like all of the waterfront RV sites, it was located between the Overseas Highway Bridge (A1A) and the Old Bahia Honda (Railroad) Bridge. Road noise can be heard from the A1A Bridge but I quickly became comfortable with the rhythmic sound of vehicle tires passing over expansion joints and the eerie look of headlights through the bridge rails at night.
Sites are fine gravel over a well graded base of limestone. Site 23 was perfectly level. Electric and water hookups were up to date but it's notable that one water tap serves two sites. For some, this will mean that water will be on the curbside of an RV that is backed in. Not a huge deal if you have plenty of hose.
Groceries and supplies require a 20 to 30 minute drive to either Big Pine Key to the south of Marathon Key to the north. Stone Crab comes in season during November and I picked up a dozen for dinner on a dock in Marathon. Key West is about an hour drive south from Bahia Honda and makes a good day trip.
We had good cell phone service via ATT. I was able to use the internet and stream via a high speed data plan.
I looked forward to staying at Bahia Honda since making the reservation a year ahead of time. This State Park met my expectations.
Earl, my canine traveling companion, enjoyed lounging in the breezy weather. Our nightly routine was to sit outside, me with a cocktail in hand, and watch the sunset over the Old Railroad Bridge. The perfect way to end a day in the Florida Keys. I plan on visiting Bahia Honda again some time...but for stays longer than a day...book well in advance.
