It's an awesome place to fish and camp. Restrooms are available kids playground and the beach is further out from the jetty. The only con is thd closing hours, I feel like they could extend it back to the way it was. Im pretty tired of the park closing when the fish starts biting.

Great campground and park rangers/staff. We camped at site #1 near restrooms found it to be a good tent site. Don’t miss boneyard beach and bringing your bikes is a must!

Arrived July 19 to site 19 for 4 nights. The check in is on the beachside and the campground is gated across the road. Very narrow roads that allow for only one vehicle at a time with many low hanging branches. Very small and private sites with #19 having an odd corner post that made backing in difficult. We walked the campground, looked but did not use the restroom facility (nice and new) and tried to kayak. Even during high tide there were very low spots and the winding water way proved tricky to navigate. The beach access was beautiful and can be busy on the weekends. The beach is great for walking and finding sand dollars. Traveled to boneyard beach with beautiful driftwood backdrop. Only negative was a lack of cell signal for Verizon. We found this campground so special that we already booked a return visit before we even checked out. Don’t forget to bring cash- the ranger station sells shirts, magnets and stickers.

Peaceful natural shoreline. Park Rangers are friendly and helpful. The facilities are well maintained and clean. This is a rustic Florida beach state park. Minimal amenities but ideal for a quiet beach day. If you have a car full of rowdy youngsters please take them elsewhere. They’ll be bored at Little Talbot. Great beach for adults and well behaved children. Plan on a short hike from parking areas to the beach. Likewise plan on a 5-10 minute walk to bathroom and shower. The beach faces northeast so check the weather forecast for winds if you own a flimsy beach umbrella. Bring a camera. Lots of landscape photo opportunities and interesting dune shrubs and flowers visible from the paths to the beach.

We had a lovely visit to Little Talbot Island State Park! When we arrived, they were about to close, but we were still able to enjoy the stunning views. Watching the sunset was a highlight of our experience, as the scenery was simply breathtaking. While we didn’t have the opportunity to see any animals during our time there, we did witness someone catching a nice-sized fish, which added a bit of excitement to our visit. Overall, it was a delightful experience at Little Talbot Island State Park, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy nature and relax in a picturesque setting!
