MacDill Air Force Base | FamCamp | Camping and Amenities

In this video, we take a look at the FamCamp area of MacDill AFB in Tampa Florida. The camground area has well over 300 campsites and most have full hook-ups. In addition, we look at the amenities in the FamCamp area including the beach, dog park, marina, restaurant, boat storage and the laundry/bathhouse. An excellent choice for those eligible to enjoy the facilties.

Thanks. I was stationed there from 1986 to 1989. Looks different! Thanks for the tour. And, thank you for y’alls service!

It is a really nice base. I'll let my dad know that you thanked him for his service. Thanks for watching.

Hi Scott, what a great place with a lot of history, looks like your Dad had a good time.

[@BikesBoatsBivouacs]

It felt good finally getting back on a base. He loves visiting the warm weather in the winter. Thanks for watching.

[@bluskyodyssey]

That looks like a really nice park. Yes, winter weather in Florida is pretty sweet. And always fun to see the dolphins. That park seems to have everything! Soon we will be back to traveling again, having to replace an axle at the moment. Take care, Debbie - BluWave Odyssey

[@BikesBoatsBivouacs]

I was wondering why I haven't seen any videos from you two. The axle problem explains it. Thanks for watching.

That looks like a really nice campground for military personnel and their families. Great is so there by Tampa, Seen a few of our TH-cam military friends stay there. Thanks for sharing, Scott.

[@BikesBoatsBivouacs]

It is a really nice facility with a lot to do. Thanks for watching.

[@MemawsMatters]

That’s a great campground Scott and it’s great that retired and active military have that available for use 😊😊 That’s also a great boat ramp👍🏻

[@BikesBoatsBivouacs]

It is really nice there with a lot to do. It can be tough to get a reservation so we will see if we can get one. Thanks for watching.

[@kattiegodfrey1656]

Can you explain the reservation process for disabled vets wanting to stay? Is it costly or free? Im moving tp Florida in my RV for my sons eye care. Was hoping to be able to stay here for a while​@BikesBoatsBivouacs

[@enroutewithchuckandcherie]

Looks like a huge campground. Should’ve taken out one of those kayaks 😂 or even threw a line in the water 🎣. ✌🏿

[@BikesBoatsBivouacs]

We did have our rods with us, I thought about trying to get out to the end of the jetty. Thanks for watching.

[@LovingLifeHitchedUp]

I'm impressed at the number of sites. We've driven past MacDill but had no idea this was even there. Can't beat those prices. Winter in Fl is definitely better than winter in PA. Nice beach. We're going to have to check to see if we're eligible. My husband was a Marine.

[@BikesBoatsBivouacs]

If you are eligible, there are a number of other bases with famcamps. Thanks for watching.

[@pattycota6195]

Very nice beach..🐬🦩....🖖✌❤

[@BikesBoatsBivouacs]

The water was very calm. Thanks for watching

[@hankcarter1021]

I was stationed there 1977 to 1979, 1928 com grp, Air Traffic Control. Is there anyway someone that did not serve 20+ but can still stay there? Thank you for any response. Hank Carter

[@BikesBoatsBivouacs]

I believe you can stay there with 15 years and certain situations. Might be worth checking into just to know. Thanks for watching.

[@hankcarter1021]

@@BikesBoatsBivouacs I only have 5 years AF and 6 years as GS-11 (FAA ATC) I sure would like to visit the base again before I die. Marital problems caused me to leave the area. I sure would like to see that all veterans with Honorable Discharge could have access to these type facilities. Thank you for your reply.
