The Escambia River Delta area is TOTALLY AWESOME! We at Becks Lake Fish Camp invite you to experience the thrill of access to over 35,000 acres (yes, you read that correctly!) of fishing and naturalist fun by visiting our facility.

Becks Lake Fish Camp is set among Live Oaks dripping Spanish Moss on a bayou-river setting of a network of pristine waterways that are teaming with Bass, Bream, Crappie, and much more! Natural Bayous were enlarged during the Northwest Florida Lumber Boom of the late 1880's and now the fish flock to this area because of our deep and still waters. Those looking for more adventure and fishing opportunities have but to motor or paddle a short distance to the Escambia River, the 4th largest river in Florida and considered the best fishing river by the State.

Becks Lake is close to all major area attractions, including Pensacola Beach and the Creek Indian Casino. Known by locals as the gateway to the heart of the 35,000 acres of the Escambia River Delta, this is "the" place to embark on a river "oddessy", fish your little heart out, or just paddle around in the "lake".

Hunters are telling us that we're the perfect spot to use as "base camp" for duck and other hunting in the Escambia River Wildlife Management Area!

We have over 2 miles of waterfrontage with a boat launch & storage, fishing, group activity areas, a group primitive camping area, hiking trails, and limited RV sites. There's over a mile of exceptional water frontage in the "lake" and a beautiful half mile deep channel connects our "lake" with the Escambia River. Unlike most boat launch and waterfront areas, the property manager lives and works on-site and you can have more peace of mind about leaving your vehicle unattended.
