OCEANSIDE - San Diego County will increase fees for camping, fishing, and boat rentals at county parks and facilities starting January 2.
A full hookup campsite will cost $42 per night, up from $40. Picnic facility fees will increase by $25.
The county said it's keeping up with "rising costs while providing high-quality parks, trails, and recreation opportunities at a good value."
This marks the second fee increase in two years, part of a plan that began in February 2023.
Veterans and seniors will have access to discount programs along with program scholarships. The county also offers a free first-time camping program that lets new campers experience the sites at no cost.
