We are staying at Islay Creek Campground in a few days. Is it possible to use the Morro Bay state beach campground overflow parking for some of our vehicles?
Hi Diane,
CampsitePhotos is not associated with the campgrounds listed on our site. We provide the photos of each campsite, campground info and link to reservations. We’re not sure if campers at Morro Bay State Park can park a vehicle in the overflow parking area at Morro Bay State Beach. I recommend you call the Park directly at: (805) 772-7434
Is there a camp store at the campground? also I understand we can drive to park for a shower. How and where do we get the token? sorry our 1st time there
Pat
Hi Patricia,
There is not a camp store at the campground, and yes – there are a few parking spots over by the shower. You can purchase a token at the campground – either at the shower or at the ranger station.
