Malaquite Campground

Malaquite Campground offers a unique coastal escape nestled directly between the dunes, providing campers with immediate beach access along the Texas shoreline. This federal campground provides a scenic, natural setting where you can enjoy the sound of the waves and the beauty of the sandy landscape. It is an excellent choice for those looking to experience the outdoors in a relaxed, beginner-friendly environment.

The campground features designated paved and gravel sites equipped with picnic tables, and select locations include grills and shade structures for added comfort. While there are no utility hookups on-site, guests have access to restrooms, cold water showers, and a convenient dump station located along the access road. Potable water is also available nearby to ensure you have the basics covered during your stay.

This location is perfect for both tent campers and RV travelers who prefer a flexible, spontaneous trip, as sites are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Campers staying in the designated campground area have the unique flexibility of pitching a tent either at their assigned site or directly on the beach in front of the campground, making it a versatile destination for families and coastal adventurers alike.
