Joshua Tree National Park in California, USA is only 2.5 hours drive from San Diego, California and one National Park that has been on my travel list for a long time!
I stayed in Joshua Tree National Park for a total of 5 days, and explored as much as possible during that time. Thankfully, I had a great Joshua Tree Airbnb in the Pioneertown Ranch just outside of Pioneertown.
Funny enough, I never slept there. Each night I would go into the park alone to film and photograph the incredible night sky of Joshua Tree National Park.
I have heard that Joshua Tree Camping is one of the best things you can do, and now I understand why. The Joshua Tree Airbnb was incredible, but next time, all I need is a sleeping bag and a flashlight, haha!
I hope you find value in this video if you're searching for great things to do in Joshua Tree National Park, and please comment if you have any suggestions for me next time I visit Joshua Tree!

Pro TIP: Scout one day before where you want to shot in the night, so you know exactly where you will place the camera and where the sun comes out, that way you can get there easily.

A little note from a desert local: In open area desert spaces everyone should be conscious of wild animals...Coyotes, Bobcats, Snakes, Scorpions and that's quickly off the top of my head. Also for visitors new to a desert area....please make sure you bring dtinking water on your desert adventures and if possible leave word with a loved one...so if you get lost in the desert it would help you be located.

Also, we saw skull rock, but missed face rock. There is so much to do, one could easily spend a week and not see or climb everything.
