How camping nearby works

A campground within a kilometre of the beach, with the nearest one's distance on every card. That is a place to sleep near the beach, not on it; camping on or directly behind the sand is its own list, beachfront camping.

How we verify camping nearby

A campground mapped within 0.6 mi (1 km) of the beach's extent in OpenStreetMap, measured to its grounds where mapped as an area, with the nearest one's distance shown on every beach. Camping on or beside the sand itself is its own feature, beachfront camping. Sources and methodology
