From mountains and deserts to beaches and rolling hills, the variety of options for campers in California are an outdoor lover’s dream come true. You can pitch a tent next to giant boulders, under massive pine trees, near fields of wildflowers, directly on a sandy beach, or even nestled among stately California Oaks. The relatively mild weather in much of the state invites camping year-round. Although, even in the deserts, winters can get mighty chilly as soon as the sun sets! The perfect time to cozy up next to a campfire, snack on s’mores, and enjoy the beauty of the night sky.

In the subdued colors of the outdoors at night, this design features a tranquil scene of camping next to a stream and oak trees under a star-studded sky. Stars are optional.
