Rv Spring Break Destinations : Our Top 4 Family Campgrounds

Living in New England, our RV spends the winter under a cover until the spring. Therefore, April vacation is when we first open the RV and look for warmer weather. When the winter is over, we look for great RV spring break destinations to enjoy with our family. 

After the long, cold winter, it is time to enjoy the warmth of the sun and head to the beach. So, our first RV trip of the year often takes us to one of the many southern RV spring break destinations. One where the sun is warm, and we can sit on the beach. 

Here, we share some of the spring break destinations we have enjoyed with our family in our RV.  It lists spring break as a family-friendly destination for the entire family. Spring break RV travel is a great way to shake off the winter and return to making camping memories. 

Ocean Lakes Family Campground is one of our top RV spring break destinations. It is a huge RV park with something to do for all family members. 

Ocean Lakes is a premier destination for campers seeking relaxation and fun. Spanning 310 acres with nearly a mile of beachfront, it offers an unparalleled camping experience. 

The campground boasts a wealth of amenities designed to cater to all ages. Families can enjoy the outdoor and indoor pools, a thrilling water park, and direct access to the beautiful Atlantic Ocean. For those seeking more activities, options such as mini-golf, an arcade, basketball courts, and weekly planned events keep the atmosphere lively and engaging.

Ocean Lakes also provides practical conveniences, including modern laundry facilities, a well-stocked camp store, and various dining options. The campground’s layout ensures all sites are within easy reach of the beach and recreational areas. With its natural beauty, extensive amenities, and friendly community vibe, Ocean Lakes Family Campground is ideal for a memorable beachside camping adventure.

If you are looking for a quiet, relaxing vacation on the beach then Cape Hatteras / Outer Banks KOA Resort is a must. The campground sits on the Atlantic Ocean side of the island and right across the street is the Pamlico sound. This provides amazing views of both the sunrise and sunset. 

The sight we camped in,106, had full hookups and backed right up to the beach on the Atlantic Ocean. We were able to set up our beach chairs in the morning and see the sunrise over the ocean, and then in the evening turn our chairs around and watch the sunset. 

This KOA resort offers a great pool and small water slides that will keep the kids busy for hours. There is also a cafe and a large lounge area. We brought our bicycles with us and spent the afternoons adventuring along the island on our bikes. If you are looking for things to see and do, the Cape Hatteras lighthouse is about 20 miles south of the campground. To the north of the campground, you will find Kitty Hawk and the Wright Brothers National Memorial. 

The Our Banks is a great Rv spring break destination if you are looking for a relaxing beach experience with the out hustle and bustle of other tourist-type destinations. 

The Holiday Trav-L-Park in Virginia Beach is another great RV destination near the Atlantic Ocean. 

Holiday Trav-L-Park in Virginia Beach is a popular camping destination known for its excellent location and extensive amenities. Nestled just a short drive from the beachfront, this campground offers a variety of site options with full hookups, including water, sewer, and electric connections.

Clean, well-maintained facilities and friendly staff add to the overall positive experience. Whether you’re looking to explore the nearby beach or relax within the campground, Holiday Trav-L-Park offers a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

This spring break destination is noticeably a little different than the ones described above. We have a separate blog post New Orleans Camping | A Great Time in the Big Easy detailing our stay down in New Orleans. 

This was not our typical spring break vacation on the coast but was an opportunity we couldn’t resist. 

The New Orleans Rv Resort and Marina is only 12 minutes away from the famed New Orleans French Quarter. The campground provides free round-trip transportation from the park to the French Quarter. 

The campground has great amenities if you are looking to just sit back, and relax at the campground itself. There is a great restaurant and bar on site. They offer live entertainment and great local cuisine. 

Regardless of when you are looking to visit New Orleans we highly recommend camping at the New Orleans RV Resort and Marina.
