Quick Overview
Ormond Beach stretches along 23 miles of Atlantic coastline where the Tomoka River meets the ocean, creating a unique camping destination that balances beach access with natural preserves. The city's claim as the "Birthplace of Speed" stems from early automobile racing on its hard-packed sand beaches, and today's RV campers can still drive on designated sections of Ormond Beach. This coastal community sits just north of Daytona Beach but maintains a quieter, more residential feel that many RVers prefer over the hustle of its famous neighbor.
Ormond Beach offers several RV campgrounds and parks, all of which are paid facilities providing various amenities and access levels. You won't find any free camping options among the some available here, but the paid parks deliver solid value with most offering full hookups and convenient beach access. The campgrounds range from luxury resort-style facilities with pools and clubhouses to simpler parks that focus on location over amenities.
From your campsite, you're positioned perfectly to explore both natural and historical attractions. The Tomoka State Park sits just minutes away, offering hiking trails through ancient shell mounds and excellent fishing spots along the Tomoka and Halifax rivers. Bulow Creek State Park provides pristine paddling opportunities through old-growth hammock forests. Beach activities dominate the summer months, with surf fishing, swimming, and beachcombing right at your doorstep. The Ormond Memorial Art Museum and Gardens showcases local culture, while the nearby Daytona International Speedway draws racing enthusiasts year-round.
Full-hookup RVers will find the most options here, with several parks catering to Class A motorhomes and large travel trailers. The area works well for snowbirds seeking extended winter stays, as many parks offer monthly rates and seasonal activities. If you prefer a more natural setting, look for campgrounds closer to the state parks rather than those right on the beach strip. Budget-conscious campers should note that beachfront locations command premium prices, especially during Bike Week and racing events.
Winter months bring the most pleasant weather and heaviest crowds, particularly from January through March when snowbirds flock south. Summer can be hot and humid with afternoon thunderstorms, but beach breezes provide relief and rates drop significantly. Spring and fall offer the best balance of weather and pricing for most RVers.

Interstate 95 provides the main north-south corridor to Ormond Beach, with Exit 268 (SR-40) offering the most direct route to the beach area. From I-95, it's about 6 miles east on State Road 40 to reach the oceanfront campgrounds. US Highway 1 runs parallel to the coast and connects all the beachside RV parks, making it easy to check out multiple options if you're park shopping.
The drive along A1A (Atlantic Avenue) between Ormond Beach and Daytona Beach is particularly scenic, hugging the coastline with ocean views. However, be aware that A1A has several low bridges south of Ormond Beach, so stick to US-1 or Granada Boulevard if you're in a tall rig. State Road 40 west of I-95 leads to the Tomoka State Park area, where you'll find more wooded camping options.
RV-specific considerations include narrow streets in some older beachfront neighborhoods. Granada Boulevard and Nova Road handle large rigs better than some of the smaller beach access roads. The Pilot Travel Center at I-95 and SR-40 offers easy fuel access with RV lanes and a decent convenience store for last-minute supplies.
Stock up on groceries at the Publix on Granada Boulevard or the Walmart Supercenter on West Granada, both easily accessible with any size RV. The Walmart location includes an auto center if you need tire service or basic maintenance. Beach driving permits are available at several locations if you plan to drive on the designated beach areas, though check current regulations as they change seasonally.

Oceanfront sites command the highest premiums, often adding $20-30 per night over inland locations. Since a portion% of the area's several campgrounds are free while a portion% charge fees, you'll need to budget for accommodation costs throughout your stay.
Seasonal pricing swings dramatically here. Winter months (December through March) see rates jump 40-60% above summer levels due to snowbird demand. Bike Week in early March and racing weekends at Daytona push prices even higher, sometimes doubling standard rates.

Good Sam and Passport America memberships can save 10-50% at participating parks, though blackout dates often apply during peak winter months. Some parks offer weekly and monthly rates that provide significant savings for extended stays – particularly valuable for snowbirds planning 2-3 month visits.
Grocery costs run slightly above national averages but remain reasonable at chain stores like Publix and Walmart. Gas prices typically track Florida state averages, which tend to be lower than many northeastern states.
