Camping near Bertrand, New Brunswick
Bertrand is a small Acadian village on the northeast coast of New Brunswick, sitting between Caraquet and Bathurst along the shore of Chaleur Bay. The village serves as a practical base for RV travellers exploring the Acadian Peninsula, with several private campgrounds within a short drive and additional provincial park options further along the coast.
Most campgrounds in the immediate area are privately operated and cater to seasonal RV traffic. Camping and Motel Colibri and its sister property Camping Colibri sur Mer are among the larger operators in the peninsula, with waterfront and family-oriented facilities. Maison Touristique Dugas Camping in nearby Caraquet combines campsites with lodging, and Motel and Camping Baie Des Chaleurs Ltd offers access to the bay. Camping Shippagan sits further east on the peninsula near the ferry to Lamèque and Miscou islands.
A paved coastal cycling and walking trail runs through the area and links many of these campgrounds, making the region workable for travellers who want to combine RV camping with day rides along the shore.
Things to do near Bertrand
The Village Historique Acadien is located in Bertrand itself, on the Rivière du Nord, and is the main regional attraction. It is a living-history site with more than 40 historic buildings depicting Acadian life from 1770 through 1949, staffed by interpreters in period costume, and operates through the summer months. Caraquet, a short drive east, has a working fishing port, restaurants, and hosts a large Acadian festival each August. The New Brunswick Aquarium and Marine Centre is in Shippagan, further east on the peninsula.
Bertrand sits along the Acadian Peninsula coastal trail, a paved multi-use route popular with cyclists. Sand beaches at Grande-Anse and the lighthouse and peat bogs of Miscou Island are within day-trip range.

The camping season on the Acadian Peninsula is short and concentrated. Most private campgrounds open in late May or early June and close by mid-September to early October. July and August are the peak months, with warm days, the warmest Gulf of Saint Lawrence water temperatures of the year, and the largest festival crowds in Caraquet. Sites at the busiest waterfront campgrounds should be reserved well ahead for these weeks.
June and early September are quieter and still viable for RV travel, with cooler nights and fewer bugs. Blackflies and mosquitoes are heaviest in June near forested and wetland areas.
Fall brings foliage colour through late September and October, but many private campgrounds close before peak colour. Winter is long, snowy, and cold along Chaleur Bay, and the vast majority of campgrounds in the region shut down entirely. Travellers looking for winter access should confirm directly with each operator before planning a trip.
How to book campgrounds in the area

What to expect on the ground

Roads into the campgrounds off Route 11 and Route 145 are generally paved and RV-friendly, though some access lanes are narrow. Cell coverage is reliable in and around Bertrand, Caraquet, and Shippagan, but thins on Miscou Island and along back roads.
Grocery stores, fuel, propane, and RV supplies are easiest to find in Caraquet and Bathurst. Water access at private campgrounds is common but not universal, and full hookups vary by site, so confirm services when booking, especially for larger rigs.
