Campgrounds near Cap-Pelé
Cap-Pelé is an Acadian village on New Brunswick's Northumberland Strait coast, about 20 minutes east of Shediac and 45 minutes from Moncton. The area is built around long sandy beaches, warm saltwater, and a cluster of family campgrounds, which makes it a practical base for an RV trip in southeastern New Brunswick.
Most sites sit directly on or within a short walk of the shore. Gagnon Beach Campground and Camping Plage Gagnon Beach are located along the Grand-Barachois shoreline just west of the village, while Beausejour Camping Ltd and Camping Oceanic offer additional serviced RV options closer to town. Parlee Beach Provincial Park Camping, roughly 20 minutes down the coast in Pointe-du-Chêne, is the largest option in the region and sits within the province's flagship beach park.
Cap-Pelé is also close to Aboiteau Beach, a long sandy stretch with a boardwalk, restaurant, and lookout tower, giving RV travellers a full day-use beach in addition to their campground shoreline.
Things to do near Cap-Pelé
The main draw is the water. The Northumberland Strait has some of the warmest saltwater north of Virginia, with comfortable summer swimming temperatures, and Aboiteau Beach offers a gentle sandy slope suited to kids. Parlee Beach Provincial Park adds swimming, change houses, an amphitheatre, and a Blue Flag eco-certification.
Beyond the beach, families can visit the Smokehouse Museum to learn about Cap-Pelé's herring-smoking heritage, walk the Aboiteau wharf area, or take the short drive to Shediac to see the World's Largest Lobster sculpture and eat at seafood restaurants.
Golf, boat launches, cycling routes, and birdwatching in the coastal marshes are all within a few minutes of most local campgrounds.

The RV camping season in Cap-Pelé is short and heavily concentrated between mid-May and early September. Parlee Beach Provincial Park runs its high season from mid-May through the Labour Day weekend, with a shoulder low season extending into the fall. Most private campgrounds in the Cap-Pelé area operate on a similar window, and Aboiteau Beach lists availability from June through September.
July and August are peak, with the warmest air and water, the fullest event calendar, and the tightest campground availability. The Canada Day and New Brunswick Day long weekends, along with Acadian Day on August 15, are the busiest dates in the region.
Late August through mid-September brings warmer water than early summer, thinner crowds, and easier bookings, though restaurants and some amenities wind down after Labour Day. Winter camping is not offered at the local beach parks; the region gets significant snow and freezing temperatures from December through March.

How to book a campsite
Parlee Beach Provincial Park Camping is reserved through the New Brunswick provincial parks system at parcsnbparks.ca. The nightly reservation window for the provincial parks typically opens in early February for the upcoming season, and sites for peak July and August weekends can sell out quickly after the window opens.
Private campgrounds in the Cap-Pelé area, including Gagnon Beach Campground, Camping Plage Gagnon Beach, Beausejour Camping Ltd, and Camping Oceanic, take reservations directly through their own websites, phone, or email. Full-service waterfront sites go first, so booking several weeks ahead is recommended for July and August.
For an RV rental delivered to a campground, confirm the site's length, hookup type (30 or 50 amp), and whether the park allows drop-off before finalizing the booking.
What to expect on-site
Campgrounds in the Cap-Pelé area range from full-service RV parks with pull-through sites, 30 and 50 amp power, water, sewer, and Wi-Fi, to more basic tenting and unserviced sites. Parlee Beach Provincial Park Camping has over 210 sites across three campgrounds with electrical, non-serviced, and rustic shelter options, plus a campers' store, showers, washrooms, playground, and amphitheatre.
Most private parks in the area are family-oriented, bilingual (English and French), and pet-friendly on leash. Parlee Beach itself does not allow dogs on the beach except service animals, so plan dog walks along quieter shoreline areas or nearby trails.
Sites near the water are often open with little shade, so awnings and sun protection are useful. Cell coverage is generally reliable across the Cap-Pelé, Shediac, and Grand-Barachois corridor.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Cap-Pelé, NB
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Cap-Pelé?
RV rental in Cap-Pelé is surprisingly affordable, especially compared to staying in beachfront cottages around Aboiteau Park. On RVezy, you'll typically find travel trailers from around $100 to $175 CAD per night, campervans from $150 to $225, and larger Class C motorhomes from $200 to $325 per night, depending on the season. The biggest savings come if you book outside the peak July to August window, when Acadian festivals and warm-water beach traffic spike demand. For cheap RV rental in Cap-Pelé, look at shoulder dates in June or early September when the Northumberland Strait is still swimmable. Pro tip: filter by Instant Book to lock in your dates fast before lobster season weekends sell out.
tourismnewbrunswick.ca/listing/village-cap-peleDo I need a special license to rent an RV in New Brunswick?
Good news, your regular Class 5 driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Cap-Pelé. New Brunswick permits standard motorhomes and towed trailers behind a regular license, which covers every Class B campervan, Class C motorhome, travel trailer, and fifth wheel listed on RVezy. RVezy generally requires approved drivers to be 25 or older with a valid license at pickup. Visiting from outside Canada? Bring your home-country license plus an International Driving Permit if it's not in English or French. RVezy verifies your ID through the platform before your trip, so by the time you arrive in Cap-Pelé, you're cleared to drive straight to Aboiteau Beach.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat protection comes with my Cap-Pelé RV rental?
Every RV rental in Cap-Pelé booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can focus on the smokehouses and sunsets, not the what-ifs. The protection plan helps cover damage to the vehicle during your trip, which is great peace of mind when you're navigating Route 15 with a motorhome for the first time. During checkout, you'll choose your level of coverage based on the deductible you're comfortable with. It isn't traditional auto insurance, but it functions similarly for the most common road-trip mishaps. Pro tip: pick your protection plan before adding extras so you can see your full nightly total upfront.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat if my plans change? Can I cancel my Cap-Pelé RV rental?
Booking is low-risk. RVezy has its own cancellation policy that applies to every reservation, including a grace period after booking where you can cancel for a full refund. After that, the amount refunded depends on how far out you are from your trip start date. Cancellation is handled by RVezy, not the individual host, so the rules are consistent no matter which Cap-Pelé motorhome you pick. If a host ever cancels on you, RVezy issues a refund or travel credit. Pro tip: book earlier rather than later for July and August dates around the Shediac Lobster Festival, since the best pet-friendly and beachside-delivery RVs disappear first.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Cap-Pelé RV trip?
Yes, plenty of hosts offer pet-friendly RV rental in Cap-Pelé, just use the Pet-Friendly filter when you search on RVezy. Many campgrounds along the Northumberland Strait welcome leashed dogs at sites and on trails. Keep in mind that Parlee Beach Provincial Park down the road in Pointe-du-Chêne only allows service animals on the actual beach, so plan to walk your dog at Aboiteau's surrounding trails or quieter shoreline areas instead. Pro tip: message the host before booking to confirm any pet fees and whether they provide bowls or a tie-out. Many Cap-Pelé hosts are dog owners themselves and are happy to accommodate.
parcsnbparks.ca/en/parks/5/parlee-beach-provincial-parkCan the RV be delivered to my campsite in Cap-Pelé?
Absolutely, RV delivery in Cap-Pelé is one of the most popular options on RVezy, especially for first-time renters. Many local hosts will drive the RV to your chosen campground or rental cottage near Aboiteau Beach, level it, hook up power and water, and walk you through every system before they leave. That means no towing on Route 15, no backing into a tight site, and no figuring out the awning on your own. Filter by Delivery on the search results page to see hosts offering this service and their delivery radius. Pro tip: book delivery to a full-service site so you'll have power, water, and dump access the moment you arrive.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039203714-Delivery-options-for-rentersHow does mileage work on a Cap-Pelé RV rental?
Most hosts in Cap-Pelé offer either a generous daily kilometre allowance or an RV rental with unlimited mileage, perfect if you're planning to explore beyond the village. To put it in perspective, Cap-Pelé to Moncton is only about 50 km, Hopewell Rocks is roughly 110 km, the Confederation Bridge to Prince Edward Island is just 40 km, and Halifax sits around 260 km away. So a typical 200 km daily allowance handles most Acadian Coastal Drive itineraries without breaking a sweat. Check the listing's mileage policy before booking, and if you're planning a bigger loop through Cape Breton or Fundy, message the host about an unlimited add-on. Pro tip: hosts often discount extra-kilometre packs if you ask upfront.
tourismnewbrunswick.ca/acadian-coastal-driveWhere should I stay with my RV near Cap-Pelé?
You're spoiled for choice when it comes to RV camping in Cap-Pelé. Sandy Beach Campground (formerly Sandy Beach Tent and Trailer Park) has 365 sites right on the Northumberland Strait with electric hookups, water, dump station, laundry, and Wi-Fi. Just minutes away, Ocean View Park and Silver Sands Campground offer quieter, family-run vibes. Drive 20 minutes west and you'll reach Parlee Beach Provincial Park in Pointe-du-Chêne, with over 210 serviced sites and Canada's warmest saltwater beach. Murray Beach Provincial Park, about 25 minutes east toward the Confederation Bridge, is another beautiful option. Pro tip: book Sandy Beach and Parlee Beach as early as January for prime July weekends, the best campgrounds near Cap-Pelé fill fast.
parcsnbparks.ca/en/parks/5/parlee-beach-provincial-parkWhen is the best time for a Cap-Pelé RV trip?
Mid-July through late August is the sweet spot for an RV trip in Cap-Pelé, when daytime highs hit a comfortable 22 to 26 °C and the Northumberland Strait warms past 20 °C, the only month it's truly swim-ready. This window also lines up with the Shediac Lobster Festival in early July and Acadian Day celebrations on August 15. June offers cooler swims but quieter campgrounds and lower rates, while early September brings warm water leftover from summer plus stunning sunsets over the Bas-Cap-Pelé cliffs. Provincial parks like Parlee Beach run their high season from roughly June 19 to September 7. Pro tip: aim for the week after the Lobster Festival for the best mix of warm water and elbow room.
parcsnbparks.ca/en/parks/5/parlee-beach-provincial-park/datesI'm a first-time renter, will I be okay driving an RV around Cap-Pelé?
You'll do great, first time renting an RV in Cap-Pelé is honestly one of the easier places to start. Roads here are flat, traffic is light outside of summer weekends, and Route 15 between Moncton and Cap-Pelé is a wide divided highway. Every RVezy host walks you through the rig at pickup: brakes, propane, slide-outs, dump procedure, the works. If you'd rather skip the drive entirely, choose a host who offers delivery and they'll have the RV set up at your campsite before you arrive. Class B campervans and small Class C motorhomes are the most beginner-friendly. Pro tip: do your first practice loop on the quiet country roads around Tidiche Park before heading to the beach.
www2.gnb.ca/content/gnb/en/departments/dti.htmlWhat happens if something goes wrong on the road?
You're never alone. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan. Flat tire on Route 950? Battery died at the Bas-Cap-Pelé wharf? Locked out at your campsite? One call gets help dispatched, whether that's a tow, a jump, a tire change, or lockout service. Your host is also typically a phone call or message away through the RVezy app, and most Cap-Pelé hosts live within 30 minutes of the village. For anything booking-related, RVezy's customer support team is available before, during, and after your trip. Pro tip: save the roadside number to your phone before pickup, and confirm cell coverage at your campsite.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat road trips can I take from Cap-Pelé?
Cap-Pelé is a launchpad for some of Atlantic Canada's best routes. An RV road trip from Cap-Pelé to Prince Edward Island is just 40 km via the Confederation Bridge, putting Charlottetown and Cavendish in easy reach (about 1.5 hours total). Head south and you'll hit Hopewell Rocks Provincial Park on the Bay of Fundy in 1 hour 30 minutes. Halifax, Nova Scotia is around 2.5 hours away, and Cape Breton's Cabot Trail is a doable 4.5-hour push. Cross-border into the US? Bangor, Maine is roughly 5 hours via Calais. Travel to the US is permitted on most RVezy rentals, just confirm with your host. Travel to Mexico is not allowed. Pro tip: the Acadian Coastal Drive (Route 11) north toward Kouchibouguac National Park is criminally underrated.
tourismnewbrunswick.ca/acadian-shores-road-tripWhat should I budget for fuel on a Cap-Pelé RV trip?
Fuel is one of the bigger line items, but it's manageable with a little planning. Expect a Class B campervan to deliver around 18 to 22 miles per gallon (mpg), a Class C motorhome 8 to 12 mpg, and a Class A 6 to 10 mpg. Gas prices in southeastern New Brunswick are regulated weekly by the Energy and Utilities Board, and typically sit at or below the national average, often a noticeable saving compared to Quebec or Ontario. A week-long campervan rental in Cap-Pelé with 600 km of driving usually runs $130 to $200 CAD in fuel. Pro tip: fill up in Shediac or Moncton before heading deeper into rural areas, stations get sparser past Murray Corner.
www2.gnb.ca/content/gnb/en/departments/energy_utilities_board.htmlHow far in advance should I book a campground near Cap-Pelé?
For prime summer weekends, book your campsite as soon as the New Brunswick Provincial Parks reservation system opens, typically in mid-January for the upcoming season through ParcsNBParks.ca. Parlee Beach and Murray Beach fill within hours for July long weekend and Acadian Day in mid-August. Private parks like Sandy Beach Campground take direct reservations and can usually accommodate three to six weeks out, even in peak summer, though full-service waterfront sites go fastest. Shoulder months (June, September) are far more flexible. Pro tip: if your dream weekend at Parlee Beach is sold out, grab a site at Sandy Beach in Cap-Pelé instead, you'll be on a better beach with shorter lines and the same warm Northumberland water.
parcsnbparks.ca/en/parks/5/parlee-beach-provincial-parkWhat are driving conditions like in and around Cap-Pelé?
Driving around Cap-Pelé is refreshingly stress-free. Route 15 (the main connector to Moncton) and Route 134 along the coast are flat, well-paved, and rarely congested outside of summer Friday afternoons when beachgoers stream in. There are no mountain passes, no toll roads, and no low bridges in the village to worry about. Watch for two specific things: deer at dusk on rural roads like Chemin Bas-Cap-Pelé, and crosswinds when you're up on the Confederation Bridge heading to PEI (RVs over a certain height occasionally face wind restrictions). Winters bring snow and ice, but most rentals run May through October. Pro tip: GPS sometimes routes you through the village's narrow harbour roads, stick to the numbered routes for an easier drive.
www2.gnb.ca/content/gnb/en/departments/dti/transportation/content/highway_information.htmlWhat amenities should I expect at Cap-Pelé campgrounds?
Cap-Pelé campgrounds are well-equipped for a comfortable stay. Sandy Beach Campground offers 30-amp electric, potable water, hot showers, flush toilets, a dump station, laundry, free Wi-Fi, and a playground, plus direct beach access. Parlee Beach Provincial Park down the road has full-service sites with 30- and 50-amp hookups, sewer connections at many sites, a camper store, and an amphitheatre. Most local parks have on-site dump stations, but if you need one between stays, the Irving stations along Route 15 near Shediac typically allow dumping for a small fee. Pro tip: fresh-water fill-ups are easiest at your campground arrival, top off before any side trips since rural fill stations are limited.
parcsnbparks.ca/en/parks/5/parlee-beach-provincial-parkWhat's inside a typical RV rental in Cap-Pelé?
You'll find more comfort than you might expect in a Cap-Pelé motorhome rental. Most RVs on RVezy come fully equipped with a kitchen (fridge, stove, microwave, sink, cookware), a bathroom with toilet and shower, sleeping space for 2 to 8 people depending on size, a dinette, climate control with air conditioning and furnace, and seatbelted seats for travel. Many include a TV, Bluetooth stereo, outdoor awning, and a generator or solar setup for off-grid stays. Wi-Fi varies, plan to use your phone's hotspot or the free Wi-Fi at Sandy Beach Campground. Pro tip: each listing lists exact amenities, and you can message the host to confirm extras like a kayak rack or beach chairs, which are popular requests for an Aboiteau Beach trip.
tourismnewbrunswick.ca/listing/village-cap-peleWhat add-ons and pickup options should I know about?
Cap-Pelé hosts offer a range of useful add-ons to make your trip smoother. Common extras include linens and bedding packages ($30 to $75), kitchen kits, outdoor chairs and tables, BBQs and propane, bike racks, kayak racks, and pet kits. Many hosts also offer delivery and setup as an add-on, with delivery fees typically calculated by distance from their home base. Pickup is usually at the host's location in or near Cap-Pelé, Shediac, or Moncton, with a 30- to 60-minute walkthrough included. Mileage policies range from 100 km/day to unlimited, so compare carefully. Pro tip: bundle delivery, linens, and a kitchen kit into one booking so you can fly into Moncton airport, taxi to your campground, and walk into a fully stocked rig.
tourismnewbrunswick.ca/listing/cap-pele-visitor-information-centreHow does payment and the security deposit work?
Payment is straightforward and secure. You pay through RVezy directly, never to the host in cash. At booking, your card is charged for the rental total (nightly rate, fees, and chosen protection plan). The security deposit is separate from your booking payment, typically a pre-authorization placed on your card before pickup and released after the host confirms the RV came back clean and undamaged. To avoid issues, do a thorough video walkaround at pickup and drop-off, follow the host's fuel and dump-tank return instructions, and respect the mileage cap. Pro tip: hosts in Cap-Pelé are known for being relaxed and friendly, communicate openly and your deposit comes back without drama.
