The state park facilities include a dump station , boat launch, boat wash rack and visitor center. Within the park are 15 full hookup sites with picnic tables and barbecues, for RV's and 25 developed campsites. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. Restrooms have electricity, running water and hot pay showers. At Mecca Beach there are 109 developed campsites, with restrooms, and four hookup sites with electricity and water available. Corvina Beach, Salt Creek, and Bombay Beach are primitive camping areas with chemical toilets and water. For sport fishing enthusiasts; Corvina, Croaker, Sargo, and Talapia inhabit the sea.
