About
Hampton Beach State Park RV Campground offers a rare opportunity to camp directly on New Hampshire's Atlantic coast. Located at the southern end of Hampton Beach near the Seabrook town line, this intimate 28-site campground provides full-hookup RV camping with water views of the Atlantic Ocean. Every site includes 30-amp electric, water, and sewer connections, all of which must be used. The campground caters exclusively to self-contained RVs; tents, pop-ups, and cassette toilets are not permitted. Sites accommodate equipment up to 40 feet with both back-in and pull-through options available. The park features a camp store, dump station, playground, and access to multiple bathhouses throughout the beach area. Swimming, fishing, and wildlife observation are popular activities. The beachfront location means some restrictions apply: pets are only allowed from September 14 through October 31, and campers must pack out all trash. Maximum stays are limited to 14 cumulative days between Memorial Day and Labor Day. Reservations are made through ReserveAmerica, with a lottery system for peak season bookings opening in mid-June.
