Booking Monahans Sandhills State Park in July

Texas state parks open reservations exactly 5 months in advance at 8 a.m. Central — so for a July trip, the booking window opens in February. Popular weekends can disappear within minutes of the window opening. If your dates are already full, set a Camp.land alert and we’ll email you the moment a cancellation opens.

What to Expect in July

Peak heat and peak demand at water parks. Book far ahead, or set a cancellation alert.

Park Highlights

  • 70-foot sand dunes for surfing
  • Sand disc rentals available
  • Unique desert sand dune landscape
  • Interpretive center and museum
  • Sunset photography paradise
  • Dark sky stargazing

Tips

  • Rent sand discs at the visitor center — sliding down dunes is a blast
  • Visit at sunset — the light on the dunes is magical
  • Summer camping is not recommended — sand surface temperatures can burn
  • Good overnight stop between Dallas and Big Bend or Carlsbad Caverns
