Sunshine Coast camping overview
The Sunshine Coast is a stretch of mainland British Columbia reached from Metro Vancouver by the BC Ferries run from Horseshoe Bay to Langdale, roughly a 40-minute crossing. Despite being on the mainland, it has no direct road link to Vancouver, so RV trips are planned around ferry schedules. The coast runs from Langdale and Gibsons in the south through Roberts Creek, Sechelt, and beyond, hugging the Strait of Georgia and Sechelt Inlet.
Campground options range from small provincial parks in second-growth coastal forest to full-service private RV parks. Porpoise Bay Provincial Park sits at the southern end of Sechelt Inlet, four kilometres north of Sechelt off Highway 101. Roberts Creek Provincial Park lies between Gibsons and Sechelt, split into a forested campground and a separate cobblestone beach day-use area. Porteau Cove Provincial Park is on the Sea-to-Sky side of Howe Sound, useful as a first- or last-night stop when timing the ferry.
Langdale Heights RV Par 3 Golf Resort and Bayside Campground and RV Park round out the local options for RVers wanting hookups closer to the ferry terminal and Sechelt.
Things to do near Sunshine Coast
The coast is built around water. Porpoise Bay Provincial Park has a sandy beach, a roped swimming area, a playground, and easy launches for kayaks and canoes exploring Sechelt Inlet. Rentals are available outside the park in Tuwanek, and calmer paddling conditions typically prevail in early morning and late afternoon.
Roberts Creek Provincial Park has a cobblestone beach that reveals sea stars, mussels, and oysters at low tide, with whales and seals sometimes visible offshore. Forested trails run through cedar, Douglas fir, and hemlock. Porteau Cove Provincial Park sits on Howe Sound and is popular for scuba diving on sunken ships and artificial reefs, plus boat launches, swimming, and shoreline walks.
Off the water, small-town stops in Gibsons, Roberts Creek, and Sechelt cover groceries, cafes, and gear.

Peak camping season on the Sunshine Coast runs from mid-May through early September. Porpoise Bay reservations are available for dates from mid-April to mid-October, and Roberts Creek Provincial Park is open from mid-May to early September, operated by a park facility operator who collects fees on-site. Porteau Cove is open year-round, with reduced services in winter.
July and August are the driest and warmest months and also the busiest. BC Parks specifically recommends reserving for July and August at Porpoise Bay. Weekends and holidays fill fastest, and Porteau Cove tends to book up well in advance due to its proximity to Vancouver.
September and early October bring cooler nights but noticeably thinner crowds and mild days. Late fall through winter is wet, with November among the wettest months. Chum and coho salmon runs in Angus Creek at Porpoise Bay draw visitors in November and December even though camping facilities are largely closed.

How to book Sunshine Coast campgrounds
Provincial park sites are booked through the BC Parks reservation system at camping.bcparks.ca on a rolling four-month window ahead of the arrival date. Porpoise Bay and Porteau Cove both accept advance reservations, and reservations are strongly recommended for July and August. Porteau Cove is a popular Vancouver-area park, so sites and its Olympic Legacy cabins fill quickly once the window opens.
Roberts Creek Provincial Park does not accept reservations. All 21 gravel sites are first-come, first-served, with park staff collecting fees on-site. Arrive early on summer weekends.
Private parks such as Langdale Heights RV Par 3 Golf Resort and Bayside Campground and RV Park are booked directly with the operator and are useful backups when provincial sites are full.
What to expect at Sunshine Coast campgrounds
Sites are typically forested and gravel, tucked under tall cedars, Douglas fir, and hemlock. Privacy varies. Roberts Creek has 21 spacious gravel sites with pit toilets, cold water taps, and a sani-station at the park entrance for a fee. There are no hookups. Porpoise Bay has 84 vehicle-accessible sites with pit and flush toilets, hot showers, and a playground, and a group site is available.
Expect train noise at Porteau Cove from the active rail line skirting the park, and Highway 101 noise at Roberts Creek. Campfires may be restricted or banned in dry summer months, and Porpoise Bay allows campfires only in communal sites. Secure food and scented items, as raccoons and other wildlife are active in coastal campgrounds.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Sunshine Coast F, BC
How much does it cost to rent an RV on the Sunshine Coast, BC?
Good news: RV rental on the Sunshine Coast is often more affordable than you'd expect for a coastal BC getaway. Travel trailers typically range from $90 to $175 per night, Class C motorhomes run about $175 to $295 per night, and larger Class A motorhomes start around $250. You'll also want to budget for the BC Ferries Horseshoe Bay to Langdale crossing, which offers Saver fares from $39 to $59 one way for under-height vehicles. To find a cheap RV rental on the Sunshine Coast, book midweek, travel in May or September shoulder season, and use RVezy's price filter to sort by budget. Pro tip: hosts in Gibsons and Sechelt often include kitchen kits and outdoor gear that can save you another $100+ on trip prep.
bcferries.com/routes-fares/ferry-fares/sunshine-coast-saverDo I need a special license to rent an RV in British Columbia?
Great news for first-time renters: a regular Class 5 BC driver's license (or the equivalent from your home province, state, or country) is all you need to rent an RV on the Sunshine Coast. No commercial license, no air brake endorsement, and no RV-specific certification are required for the motorhomes, campervans, and travel trailers listed on RVezy. You just need to be 25 or older with a valid license. Visiting from overseas? Bring an International Driving Permit alongside your home license and you're set. RVezy verifies your ID right through the platform during booking, so the process is quick and you can focus on planning the fun stuff, like which Sechelt bakery to hit first.
icbc.com/driver-licensing/visit-move-bc/Visiting-BCIs my Sunshine Coast RV rental protected if something goes wrong?
Yes, every RV rental in Sunshine Coast booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance. The protection plan covers eligible physical damage to the vehicle during your trip, so you can drive Highway 101 from Langdale to Lund with real peace of mind. During checkout, you choose your preferred level of coverage, letting you balance your deductible and protection to suit your comfort level. If you bump a mirror on a narrow forest road near Halfmoon Bay or have a tire issue on the way to Earls Cove, you are covered and help is one phone call away. Pro tip: review your coverage choice the day before pickup so you know exactly what to expect.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat is the cancellation policy if my Sunshine Coast trip plans change?
Booking is low-risk: RVezy applies a standard cancellation policy to every reservation, including a full money-back grace period right after you book. That gives you breathing room to confirm BC Ferries reservations, line up your campground bookings, and coordinate the rest of your Sunshine Coast RV trip. Refund amounts after the grace period depend on how far out from your trip start you cancel. You can review the full policy on the RVezy Help Center before you book. Pro tip: book your ferry and campsites only after your RV reservation is confirmed so everything stays in sync.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Sunshine Coast RV trip?
Absolutely, the Sunshine Coast is one of the most dog-friendly corners of BC, and plenty of hosts offer pet-friendly RV rental on the Sunshine Coast. Just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy to see motorhomes and trailers that welcome four-legged co-pilots. Once you arrive, your pup will love Cliff Gilker Park in Roberts Creek, the off-leash beach at Davis Bay (outside posted hours), and the forested trails at Smuggler's Cove Marine Provincial Park near Halfmoon Bay. BC Ferries also welcomes pets, though they ride on the car deck or in designated outdoor pet areas. Pro tip: message the host before booking to confirm pet fees and bring a towel, because Sunshine Coast beach walks always end in happy, sandy paws.
bcparks.ca/visit-a-park/visitor-info/pets-in-parks/Can the RV be delivered to me on the Sunshine Coast?
Yes, RV delivery on the Sunshine Coast is one of the easiest ways to skip the ferry stress entirely. Many RVezy hosts based in Gibsons, Sechelt, and Roberts Creek will deliver the RV directly to your campsite at places like Porpoise Bay Provincial Park or Sunshine Coast Resort, then set up the awning, hook up the power and water, and walk you through everything before they leave. That's a game-changer if it's your first time renting an RV. Some hosts will even meet you at the Langdale ferry terminal. Filter by Delivery on RVezy and message the host for a delivery quote based on distance. Pro tip: campsite delivery means no ferry fare for your rig, often saving $80 to $150.
sunshinecoastcanada.com/plan-your-trip/getting-here/How far can I drive on the Sunshine Coast and beyond?
You'll have plenty of road to explore. The Sunshine Coast Highway (Highway 101) runs about 84 km (52 miles) from the Langdale ferry terminal up to Earls Cove, then another 34 km from Saltery Bay into Powell River, so the full coastal drive is roughly 140 km of jaw-dropping ocean views. Many RVezy hosts offer 100 to 200 free kilometres per night, with extra kilometres priced at $0.30 to $0.45. If you're planning a longer Sunshine Coast RV trip with stops in Gibsons, Sechelt, Pender Harbour, and Lund, look for listings tagged with RV rental with unlimited mileage or higher daily allowances. Pro tip: ask the host upfront so your kilometre allowance matches your real route plan.
tranbc.ca/Where are the best campgrounds near the Sunshine Coast?
You're spoiled for choice when it comes to the best campgrounds near the Sunshine Coast. Porpoise Bay Provincial Park in Sechelt is a local favourite with sandy beach access and 84 vehicle-accessible sites. Roberts Creek Provincial Park offers shaded, old-growth sites just minutes from the village. Saltery Bay Provincial Park, near Powell River, has waterfront sites and a famous diving cove. For full hookups, Sunshine Coast Resort in Madeira Park and Sechelt's Big Maple Campground are great picks for RV camping on the Sunshine Coast. Reservations open four months ahead through BC Parks' Discover Camping system and fill fast for July and August weekends. Pro tip: book the moment your dates open, and aim for Sunday-to-Thursday stays for the quietest experience.
bcparks.ca/reservations/When is the best time to visit the Sunshine Coast in an RV?
The sweet spot for RV camping on the Sunshine Coast is mid-May through late September, when daytime highs sit between 18 and 25 C (65 to 77 F) and rainfall drops off dramatically. July and August are the warmest and driest months, perfect for swimming at Davis Bay or kayaking out of Porpoise Bay. June and September are the smart-money shoulder seasons: campsites are easier to grab, ferry lines are shorter, and you'll still get plenty of sunshine (the region averages over 2,400 hours of sun per year, hence the name). Winters are mild and wet, rarely freezing at sea level, so off-season trips are doable too. Pro tip: aim for the first two weeks of September for warm water, empty trails, and great rental rates.
climate.weather.gc.ca/climate_normals/I've never driven an RV before. Will I be okay on the Sunshine Coast?
You're going to be just fine, the Sunshine Coast is one of the most beginner-friendly places in BC for first time renting an RV. Highway 101 is a paved two-lane road with regular pull-outs, light traffic outside summer weekends, and speed limits between 50 and 80 km/h. Every RVezy host gives you a hands-on walkthrough at pickup covering driving, levelling, the propane system, the water tanks, and the awning, and they stay reachable by phone the whole trip. If city driving makes you nervous, look for a host who delivers straight to your campsite so you skip the ferry queue altogether. Pro tip: do a quick parking-lot practice loop before heading north, you'll feel confident in 15 minutes.
icbc.com/road-safety/sharing/Pages/recreational-vehicle.aspxWhat happens if I have a breakdown or roadside issue on the Sunshine Coast?
You are never alone on the road. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the renter protection plan, so whether you have a flat near Halfmoon Bay, a dead battery at the Earls Cove ferry terminal, or need a tow outside Powell River, help is one phone call away. Your host is also a direct lifeline for questions about the RV's quirks and systems. Cell coverage is solid along Highway 101 through Gibsons, Sechelt, and Madeira Park, with a few short dead zones near Egmont and the Skookumchuck Narrows trailhead. Pro tip: save the RVezy support line and your host's number in your phone before you board the ferry, and screenshot your campground reservation in case you lose signal.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Sunshine Coast RV rental across the border into the US?
For a Sunshine Coast RV trip, cross-border travel into the US is possible with some RVezy hosts but never with others, so always confirm in writing before booking. Insurance coverage and host permission both have to line up, and some hosts only allow travel within British Columbia. Travel into Mexico is not permitted on any RVezy rental. Most Sunshine Coast renters stick to the BC coast anyway, because the region links beautifully into a Coastal Circle Tour: ferry from Powell River to Comox on Vancouver Island, then south through Parksville and Victoria, and back to the mainland via Swartz Bay. Pro tip: message the host directly from the listing before booking to confirm cross-border permissions and any extra paperwork.
cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/travel-voyage/menu-eng.htmlWhat fuel economy and gas costs should I budget for?
Budget-friendly news: the Sunshine Coast is compact, so fuel costs stay manageable on most trips. Class B campervan rentals on the Sunshine Coast average 18 to 22 mpg (about 11 to 13 L/100km), Class C motorhomes get roughly 10 to 14 mpg, and travel trailers depend on your tow vehicle, usually 12 to 16 mpg. Gas prices in BC tend to run higher than the national average, hovering around $1.70 to $1.90 per litre on the Coast in 2025, with stations in Gibsons, Sechelt, Madeira Park, and Powell River. A typical 4-day round trip from Langdale to Lund burns about 120 to 180 litres. Pro tip: top up in Sechelt where prices are usually 5 to 10 cents cheaper than the smaller northern stations.
www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/industry/natural-gas-oil/petroleum-productsHow far in advance should I book a Sunshine Coast campground?
Book early and you will thank yourself later. BC Parks' reservation system opens campsites on a rolling four-month-ahead window, so for a July 15 arrival at Porpoise Bay Provincial Park, you can book starting March 15 at 7 a.m. Pacific. Summer weekends at Porpoise Bay, Roberts Creek, and Saltery Bay routinely sell out within minutes. Private parks like Sunshine Coast Resort in Madeira Park take reservations further ahead and often have more flexibility. Don't forget to also book your BC Ferries vehicle reservation for the Horseshoe Bay to Langdale crossing, especially in July and August. Pro tip: set a calendar alert for 6:55 a.m. on your booking-window opening day, and have your campsite numbers picked in advance.
bcparks.ca/reservations/What are driving conditions like on the Sunshine Coast?
Driving the Sunshine Coast is genuinely scenic and very manageable in an RV. Highway 101 is paved end to end with two lanes, occasional climbing lanes, and a posted speed of 80 km/h on the open sections, dropping to 50 through Gibsons and Sechelt. North of Madeira Park the road narrows and winds more, so take it easy with longer rigs. Tides matter at the Langdale ferry terminal: very tall, low-clearance, or long-overhang RVs are sometimes asked to wait for a later sailing during extreme high or low tides. Winter brings rain rather than heavy snow at sea level. Pro tip: check DriveBC for live cameras and incidents before you set off, and plan ferry arrivals 30 to 60 minutes early.
drivebc.ca/What amenities can I expect at Sunshine Coast campgrounds?
Sunshine Coast campgrounds run the full range, so you can match the experience to your comfort level. BC Provincial Parks like Porpoise Bay, Roberts Creek, and Saltery Bay offer flush toilets, potable water taps, picnic tables, and fire rings, but no electrical, sewer, or water hookups at the sites. For full hookups (30/50 amp power, water, sewer, and Wi-Fi), head to private parks like Sunshine Coast Resort in Madeira Park, Big Maple in Sechelt, or Willingdon Beach Campsite in Powell River. RV sanitary stations for dumping tanks and refilling fresh water are available at Porpoise Bay, Saltery Bay, and several private parks along Highway 101. Pro tip: top up fresh water in Sechelt before heading north of Earls Cove, where services thin out.
bcparks.ca/visit-a-park/visitor-info/services/What's included inside a typical Sunshine Coast RV rental?
Most Sunshine Coast motorhome rentals come ready to roll. Expect a fully equipped kitchen (fridge, propane stove, microwave, sink, cookware, dishes, utensils), a bathroom with toilet and shower in Class B, Class C, and most trailers, sleeping for 2 to 8 depending on size, a furnace, air conditioning, and seatbelted seats for everyone travelling. Many listings also include a generator, outdoor awning, BBQ, camp chairs, levelling blocks, and basic linens. Wi-Fi and TV vary by listing, so check the amenity list. A campervan rental on the Sunshine Coast (Class B) is great for couples wanting something nimble for ferry travel; larger families usually choose Class C or a travel trailer. Pro tip: filter by Sleeps and amenities like Generator or Bike Rack to match your trip style exactly.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Sunshine%20Coast%2C%20British%20ColumbiaWhat add-ons and pickup logistics should I know about?
You can customize your rental with handy add-ons that make a Sunshine Coast RV trip easier. Common host extras include kitchen kits ($25 to $75), bedding packages ($25 to $50 per bed), generators ($20 to $40 per day), bike racks, kayaks, paddleboards, BBQs, and outdoor patio sets. Pickup usually happens at the host's home in Gibsons, Sechelt, Roberts Creek, or Powell River, with a 30 to 60 minute walkthrough included. Mileage policies vary by listing, typically 100 to 200 km per night included, plus an overage rate. Drop-off mirrors pickup, with the RV returned clean, with empty tanks and a full fuel tank. Pro tip: if you're ferrying over with the rig, ask the host to meet you at the Langdale terminal to save a round trip.
bcferries.com/travel-boarding/terminal-directions-parking-food/sunshine-coast-langdale/LNGHow do payments and the security deposit work for a Sunshine Coast RV rental?
Payment is simple and fully handled through RVezy, so there is no cash exchange with your host. You pay your rental total by credit card at booking, and a refundable security deposit is pre-authorized on your card a few days before pickup. Deposits are separate from the booking payment and vary by listing, typically ranging from $500 to $1,500 depending on the RV's size and value. As long as you return the RV on time and in the same condition you picked it up, the hold is released after your trip ends. To avoid surprises, dump the tanks at a sani-station (free at Porpoise Bay Provincial Park), refuel before drop-off, and do a quick walk-around with the host. Pro tip: take date-stamped photos at pickup and drop-off so everyone is on the same page.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksWhat's a great road trip route from the Sunshine Coast?
An RV road trip from the Sunshine Coast is one of the most scenic in Canada. Start at the Langdale ferry terminal and cruise Highway 101 north: Gibsons (10 minutes, the Beachcombers town), Roberts Creek (25 minutes, hippie-charm village), Sechelt (35 minutes, your supply stop, about 28 km from Langdale), Halfmoon Bay and Smuggler's Cove Marine Provincial Park (1 hour), Pender Harbour and Madeira Park (1.5 hours), and Earls Cove (about 84 km / 90 minutes from Langdale). Hop the 50-minute ferry to Saltery Bay, then continue 34 km into Powell River and another 30 km to Lund, literally the end of Highway 101 and the start of Desolation Sound. Pro tip: build in three nights minimum, you'll want to slow down for every viewpoint.
