Campland on the Bay

Voted best campground in San Diego every year.  We love going to Campland when we want to go wakeboarding. We tow a boat behind an RV, put it in the water and anchor it just off the beach overnight. Then we go out at sunrise and the kids wakeboard and dad waterskiis on "glass" on Mission Bay.

The campground has everything - a store, a restaurant, shuttles to local attractions, bike and personal watercraft rentals, a sandy beach on Mission Bay, and an unbeatable view of the Sea World fireworks every night. They have live music and dancing in the summer, kids activities, and more.

We rarely stay for more than a night, but on a longer trip, you can catch a ride to Sea World, or down Grand Avenue to the beach with real waves and the boardwalk. A longish bike ride would take you to Belmont Park to ride the rollercoaster and a few other rides.

The place is extremely crowded, with the streets clogged with golf carts, bikes, skateboards and the like. The spaces are rather close but there's some greenery.

This is still our first choice for an RV trip involving wakeboarding.
