Military RV Parking Review

Pelican Roost RV Park - Naval Station, Mayport, FL

This is a very popular place to park if you qualify and are visiting the Jacksonville, FL area.

Mayport Naval Station is located at the mouth of the St. Johns River. The St. Johns flows from the south and is Florida’s largest river.

The RV park is situated on the St Johns jetty sea wall. It’s not shown in the picture because it’s another quarter mile out on the jetty road at the bottom left in the picture in the link below.

The MWR facility at Mayport has a large inventory of recreational equipment. All the equipment you might need for a day of fishing from the jetties at the RV park can be checked-out there. They also have live and cut bait. The on site RV park office also has a good selection of cut baits.

Pelican Roost is on the south jetty. There is a short ferry boat ride across the river to the north jetties available in the village of Mayport.

The following links are pictures I’ve taken during various stays at different times of the year. Sites can be smallish and very close together to spacious with lots of extra space to put up a tent or screen room.
