Tiger Key Beach Campground

Tiger Key Beach Campground is a primitive backcountry campsite within Everglades National Park accessible only by boat or paddlecraft, located on the western side of the Ten Thousand Islands near the Gulf of Mexico.

The site features sandy beach campsites on the western shoreline with no developed facilities (no water, electricity, or bathrooms), requiring visitors to pack in all supplies and pack out all waste.

A backcountry permit ($15 processing fee plus $2 per person per day) is required and can be obtained 24 hours in advance at the Gulf Coast Visitor Center in Everglades City; campers should be aware of shallow water and limited access at low tide, with a vault toilet available on nearby Picnic Key.
