We camped at the Manatee Point Campground while reconnoitering the Jacksonville area. Both sets of camp hosts were very friendly and extremely helpful throughout or stay. We paid $31 per night for a graveled 40" pull-through space. It was not in the shade, although most of the sites did have some. The amenities were excellent, including a very clean bath house, FREE laundry, decent WiFi, and a few FREE TV channels that could be accessed without a cable hookup (how did they do that?). The camp is right on the water and there is a screened off gazebo with electric fans that was quite comfy when the humidity wasn't too high.
The best way to enter the base is at the Yorktown Gate, as the Birmingham Gate is open for limited hours only. Be aware that for security reasons the route through the gate is rather narrow with speed bumps, but we were able to maneuver our travel trailer through it fairly easily.
The Exchange and Commissary are about 1.5 miles away between Saratoga or Birmingham Avenue, and other places to eat on base include Dewy's, Mulligan's, and McDonald's, all along Saratoga Avenue.
There are lots of things to see and do in Jacksonville, but NAS JAX is located on the southwest side of town, so getting there might involve a 15 to 30 mile drive (30 miles to the beach). Also, there are many aggressive drivers in town, and we didn't go a day without seeing a car wreck somewhere - so stay on the qui vive.
We would stay at Manatee Point Campground again if we happen to return to Jacksonville.

Conveniently located in central Jacksonville. Good price for AD military members. Staff was extremely helpful and organized. A little tight for our 43’ fifth wheel, but doable. Gravel pads and driveways need some more gravel, but overall sites in good shape. We used our Verizon cell data to stream instead of the WiFi. Will stay again.
