San Clemente RV Campground
San Clemente State Beach's RV and trailer campground provides full hook-ups of water, electricity (50 and 30 amp), and sewer. Generators, TVs, and radios may be operated between 10 AM and 8 PM. Dogs must be kept on leash and confined to a tent or vehicle at night. The showers take tokens.
The short Nature Trail and Butterfly Trail lead off from the RV campground near sites 66-67 and loop back to the road just east of the campground.
San Clemente Tent Campground
The campsites in San Clemente State Beach's tent campground are also sometimes called Family Sites since they are not limited to tents. Small RVs often camp here, but there are no hook-ups as there are in the RV campground.
According to previous campers, sites 74 through 90 have the best views of the ocean since they are near the edge of the bluffs. Among those, sites 82, 83 and 85 have the best views. A fence separates the campground from the bluffs.
Camping fees cover one vehicle and one towed vehicle. Extra vehicles are allowed for a fee. Each campsite is for a maximum of 8 people. As in the RV campground, dogs must be kept on a leash and confined to a vehicle or tent at night. A number of previous campers noted skunks wandering around at night, so carry a flashlight when headed to the restroom.

South Carlsbad State Beach Camping
The campsites in South Carlsbad State Beach are located along the bluff overlooking the ocean. The entrance to the campground is at Poinsettia Lane and Carlsbad Boulevard. Sites are arranged in parking lot style, with a row of bushes separating many of the sites. Sites in the ocean-front row are designated as Premium, while the back row offers Standard Sites. Hook-up sites have recently been added, including some dual hook-up sites.
The campground is divided in half, with sites 1 - 130 north of the entrance kiosk and the rest to the south. A seasonal camp store (April - October) sells firewood, ice, and basic supplies. Laundry facilities are available there. During the summer campfire programs are held at the campfire circle near the store.
Access to the beach is via a number of convenient stairways or a ramp near the south end of the campground (between sites #179 and #180). Restrooms with token operated showers are situated all along the campground.
