Camping near Lamèque, New Brunswick
Lamèque is an island community on the Acadian Peninsula in northeastern New Brunswick, part of the town of Île-de-Lamèque formed through local governance reform. Situated off the coast of northeastern New Brunswick, Lamèque separates the waters of the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and Chaleur Bay. The island sits at the end of Route 113, connected by causeway to Shippagan, and serves as a jumping-off point for Miscou Island to the north.
RV travellers will find a small cluster of private campgrounds on and near the island rather than a large provincial park. Chalets Et Camping Des Iles Jeannot and Maison Touristique Dugas Camping sit on Lamèque itself, while Camping Shippagan, Camping Colibri sur Mer, and Camping and Motel Colibri are a short drive south across the causeway. Sites tend to be seasonal, family-run, and oriented toward beach and coastal access.
The area sits in the Acadian Coastal region, with fishing, peatlands, beaches, Acadian culture, trails and music shaping the local travel experience. Expect a French-speaking, low-key destination well suited to slow-paced trips.
Things to do around Lamèque
The main nature stop is the Ecological Park of the Acadian Peninsula. It features a half-kilometre footbridge, an observation tower and a two-kilometre interpretive trail, including an arboretum. Visitors can watch great blue herons use the tides to catch a meal and ospreys diving for fish over the estuary. The park is typically open from mid-May through October.
Drive north to Miscou Island for the historic lighthouse, sandy beaches, and coastal boardwalks over peat bogs. On Lamèque itself, the Sainte-Cécile Church in Petite-Rivière-de-l'Île hosts the annual International Baroque Music Festival and is painted in a distinctive multicolour style.
Quiet sandy beaches are scattered around the island, and the Provincial Peat Moss Festival is celebrated each July, drawing families and food lovers to town.

The RV season on the Acadian Peninsula runs roughly from late May or early June through September, with peak demand from late June through mid-August. Most private campgrounds on and near Lamèque open only for these warm months and close for the off-season, so shoulder-season travellers should confirm dates directly with each operator before booking.
Late July is the busiest window. The Peat Moss Festival runs for a week in mid-to-late July, and the International Baroque Music Festival at Sainte-Cécile Church also falls in summer, pushing campground occupancy up and tightening availability at Chalets Et Camping Des Iles Jeannot, Camping Shippagan, and other nearby sites. Book several weeks ahead for these dates.
September brings cooler nights, thinner crowds, and good conditions for birding and beach walks. Winter turns the island into a quiet community with cross-country skiing, skating, sliding and snowshoeing, but RV camping is not viable, as facilities are shuttered and roads see heavy snow.
How to book a campsite near Lamèque
Campgrounds near Lamèque are privately operated, so reservations go directly through each campground rather than through a central provincial system. Most operators, including Maison Touristique Dugas Camping and Camping Colibri sur Mer, take bookings by phone, email, or a simple website form. Deposits are common for stays of more than one or two nights.
For summer weekends and festival weeks in July and August, reserve four to eight weeks in advance to lock in a full-service RV site with power, water, and sewer. Weekday and shoulder-season stays are typically easier to secure on shorter notice.
If a specific campground is full, check nearby options in Shippagan or along the road toward Miscou. Confirm rig length limits and pull-through availability when booking, as smaller Acadian coastal sites are not all sized for larger Class A motorhomes.
What to expect on the ground
Lamèque is a small, French-speaking Acadian community. English is understood in tourist-facing businesses, but signage and casual conversation are primarily in French. Cell coverage is reliable in town and thins out on rural stretches toward Miscou.
Campgrounds here are relaxed and family-oriented rather than resort-style. Expect grassy or gravel sites, basic hookups, a shared washroom and shower block, and often direct or short-walk beach access. Amenities like pools, activity programs, and on-site restaurants are limited, so plan for self-catering with groceries picked up in Shippagan.
Coastal weather can shift quickly. Pack layers even in July, bring insect repellent for peat-bog and marsh areas, and expect steady winds along the exposed north and east shores. Fresh seafood is widely available at local restaurants and fish markets.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Lamèque, NB
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Lamèque, NB?
Good news: an RV rental in Lamèque is one of the most affordable ways to experience the Acadian Peninsula. On RVezy, travel trailers in New Brunswick typically range from about $100 to $175 CAD per night, while Class C motorhomes generally run $200 to $325 CAD per night. Campervans land somewhere in between. Add-ons like delivery, kitchen kits, or generators are set by each host on their listing. To find a cheap RV rental in Lamèque, book mid-week, travel in June or early September shoulder seasons, and use the price filter to sort by budget. Pro tip: Lamèque's biggest event, the Provincial Peat Moss Festival in July, books out fast, so reserve early to lock in the best rates.
tourismnewbrunswick.ca/listing/town-lamequeDo I need a special license to rent an RV in Lamèque, New Brunswick?
Great news: your regular Class 5 driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Lamèque. New Brunswick does not require a special RV license or commercial endorsement for any motorhome or trailer you'll find on RVezy, no matter the size. You'll need to be 25 or older, and you'll confirm your ID quickly and securely through the RVezy platform during booking. Visiting from outside Canada? Bring your home driver's license along with an International Driving Permit (usually under $25 from your local auto association) and you're set. Most first-time renters are surprised how simple the paperwork is, leaving more time to enjoy the island.
www2.gnb.ca/content/gnb/en/departments/public-safety/services/services_renderer.8757.htmlWhat protection is included with my Lamèque RV rental?
You're covered from the moment you book. Every motorhome rental in Lamèque on RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can drive across the Pont de l'Île bridge to Lamèque Island with real peace of mind. During checkout, you choose the protection level that fits your trip, with higher tiers offering lower out-of-pocket responsibility for covered damages. Roadside assistance is included with every protection plan, covering common issues like flat tires, lockouts, and towing. Hosts don't pick your coverage, you do, so you stay in control of how protected you want to be on coastal Route 113 and beyond.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat if I need to cancel my Lamèque RV trip?
Booking is low-risk. RVezy applies a standard cancellation policy to every reservation, including a money-back grace period right after you book. If plans change soon after confirming your rent-an-RV-in-Lamèque booking, you have time to adjust without worry. Refund amounts depend on how close you are to your trip start date, and extenuating circumstances may also apply, which matters in Atlantic Canada where late-season storms can roll through. The cancellation policy is set by RVezy, not the host, so it's consistent across all bookings. You can review the exact details during checkout and in your booking confirmation, and RVezy support can walk you through your options if something unexpected comes up.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Lamèque RV rental?
Absolutely, a pet-friendly RV rental in Lamèque is easy to find. Just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy and you'll see motorhomes and trailers whose hosts welcome dogs (and sometimes cats). Lamèque is a dream for four-legged travelers: the Ecological Park of the Acadian Peninsula at 65 Du Ruisseau Street is officially pet-friendly, with leashed dogs welcome on the boardwalk and interpretive trails. The quiet sandy beaches around the island and nearby Miscou Island also offer plenty of off-leash romping (always check local signage). Pro tip: message your host before booking to confirm any pet fee or shedding-cleanup expectations, and pack a towel for sandy paws after beach walks.
tourismnewbrunswick.ca/listing/ecological-park-acadian-peninsulaCan a host deliver the RV to me in Lamèque?
Yes, RV delivery in Lamèque is one of the easiest ways to start your trip stress-free. Many RVezy hosts on the Acadian Peninsula offer delivery and setup directly to local campgrounds, a friend's driveway, or seasonal spots on Lamèque or Miscou Island. Just use the Delivery filter when you search, then check each listing for the host's delivery radius and per-kilometre fee. Your host will park, level, and connect the RV, then walk you through every system from the propane stove to the awning. This is perfect if it's your first time renting an RV or if you're flying into Bathurst (BNB) or Moncton (YQM) and don't want to drive a big rig right away.
tourismnewbrunswick.ca/listing/lameque-islandHow many kilometres can I drive on a Lamèque RV trip?
You'll have plenty of road to explore. Each host sets their own mileage allowance, and many RVezy listings near Lamèque offer generous daily kilometres or even unlimited mileage, perfect for a Lamèque RV trip that stretches across the Acadian Peninsula. Popular drives from Lamèque include Miscou Island Lighthouse (about 30 km north), Caraquet and the Village Historique Acadien (about 50 km west), Kouchibouguac National Park (about 175 km south), and Bathurst (about 110 km southwest). Each listing's mileage policy is clearly shown before you book, along with any overage fee per kilometre. Pro tip: filter for unlimited-mileage RVs if you plan to loop the whole peninsula or continue on to PEI.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Lameque%2C%20New%20BrunswickWhere are the best campgrounds near Lamèque?
You've got fantastic options for RV camping in Lamèque and the surrounding Acadian Peninsula. Camping Plage Inkerman Ferry sits about 25 km south with serviced waterfront sites along the Pokemouche River. Camping de l'Île in Shippagan (just over the bridge, about 15 km away) offers full hookups, Wi-Fi, and easy access to the Aquarium and Marine Centre. Camping Colibri near Tracadie has shaded sites and a pool, about 60 km south. For a more remote feel, Camping Plage Miscou puts you steps from the dunes at the tip of Miscou Island. Pro tip: most Acadian Peninsula campgrounds open mid-May and close in late September, so reserve your spot early for July and August.
tourismnewbrunswick.ca/listing/town-lamequeWhen is the best time to visit Lamèque in an RV?
The sweet spot for an RV rental in Lamèque is mid-June through mid-September, when daytime temperatures sit comfortably between 20 and 26 °C and the Gulf of St. Lawrence warms enough for swimming. July is peak season thanks to the Provincial Peat Moss Festival and the renowned Festival International de Musique Baroque held at colourful Sainte-Cécile Church in Petite-Rivière-de-l'Île. Late August and early September bring fewer crowds, cheaper rates, and prime lobster and snow crab on local menus. Spring (May) can still be cool and breezy, while October sees most campgrounds close. Pro tip: book a coastal site by late winter if you're targeting the baroque festival, it sells out every year.
tourismnewbrunswick.ca/listing/lameque-islandI've never rented an RV before. Will I be okay driving around Lamèque?
You'll do great, Lamèque is one of the friendliest places in Canada for first time renting an RV. The roads are flat, well-maintained, and traffic is light, with Route 113 carrying you smoothly from Shippagan across the bridge onto Lamèque Island. Your RVezy host will give you a hands-on walkthrough at pickup, covering everything from the dashboard to the dump valves, and they're a text message away during your whole trip. Pair that with 24/7 roadside assistance included in your booking and you've got a full safety net. Pro tip: start with a smaller Class C motorhome or campervan rental in Lamèque if you're nervous about size, then build confidence on quiet coastal roads like Route 305 toward Miscou.
www2.gnb.ca/content/gnb/en/departments/dti/highways.htmlWhat happens if the RV breaks down during my Lamèque trip?
You're never on your own. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan, covering common issues like flat tires, dead batteries, lockouts, and towing across New Brunswick. If something goes sideways on Route 113 between Shippagan and Lamèque, or out near Miscou Island Lighthouse, just call the number in your booking confirmation and help is dispatched. Your host is also reachable directly through the RVezy app for quick questions like how to reset the inverter. The nearest full-service repair shops are in Shippagan and Caraquet, both within 30 minutes of Lamèque. Pro tip: snap a photo of the RV's VIN and plate at pickup so you can share details quickly if you ever need assistance.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Lamèque RV rental into the United States or to PEI?
Cross-province travel is totally doable. From Lamèque, an RV road trip from Lamèque to Prince Edward Island via the Confederation Bridge (about 280 km) or to Nova Scotia (Halifax is about 600 km) is popular and usually allowed, just confirm with your host and double-check that the protection package covers your route during booking. Travel into the United States may be permitted by some hosts but requires advance approval and insurance confirmation, so message before you book if you're planning a cross-border loop through Maine. Travel to Mexico is not allowed on RVezy rentals. Pro tip: the ferry from Caribou, NS to Wood Islands, PEI accepts RVs and is a scenic alternative to the bridge return.
cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/travel-voyage/menu-eng.htmlWhat kind of fuel mileage and gas budget should I plan for?
Budgeting fuel for your Lamèque RV trip is straightforward. Campervans and Class B motorhomes average 18 to 22 L/100 km, Class C motorhomes around 23 to 28 L/100 km, and Class A or large fifth wheels closer to 28 to 35 L/100 km. Gas prices in northern New Brunswick (regulated by the New Brunswick Energy and Utilities Board) typically run a few cents higher than the provincial average, so fill up in Shippagan or Caraquet before heading to remote spots like Miscou Island where stations are limited. For a 500 km loop around the Acadian Peninsula in a Class C, plan roughly $190 to $230 CAD in fuel. Pro tip: fuel up before 6 PM, most rural stations close early.
www2.snb.ca/content/snb/en/sites/eub.htmlHow far ahead do I need to book a campground near Lamèque?
For the best campgrounds near Lamèque, aim to reserve 2 to 4 months ahead for July and August stays, especially during the Peat Moss Festival and the Baroque Music Festival weeks. Private campgrounds like Camping de l'Île in Shippagan and Camping Plage Inkerman Ferry take direct online and phone reservations. Provincial parks within easy reach, like Sugarloaf Provincial Park near Campbellton, are booked through the Parks NB reservation system, which opens each spring. National parks like Kouchibouguac use the Parks Canada Reservation Service, which opens in January. Pro tip: shoulder-season stays in mid-June or early September almost always have walk-up availability if you prefer flexibility over planning.
parcsnbparks.ca/en/reservationsWhat are local driving conditions like around Lamèque Island?
Driving around Lamèque is refreshingly relaxed. The main connector, Route 113, is a paved two-lane highway with gentle curves crossing the bridge from Shippagan onto Lamèque Island, then continuing north to Miscou. Speeds top out at 80 km/h on rural stretches and 50 km/h in town. Watch for crosswinds on the bridge, especially with a tall Class C, and for the occasional moose or white-tailed deer at dawn and dusk along Route 305 toward Miscou. Fog can roll in off the Gulf in early summer, so use your low-beam headlights. Winter brings snow and freezing spray, so most RV travel happens May through October. Pro tip: pull over at the Pokeshaw Rock lookout near Grande-Anse for an unforgettable cliff view.
www2.gnb.ca/content/gnb/en/departments/dti/highways/content/highway_information.htmlWhere can I dump tanks and fill fresh water near Lamèque?
You've got several easy options. Camping de l'Île in Shippagan (about 15 km from Lamèque) offers a sani-dump and potable water fill, often available to non-guests for a small fee. Camping Plage Inkerman Ferry about 25 km south also has full dump and water service. Most serviced sites in the area provide 30-amp electric, water, and sewer hookups, while many also offer 50-amp for larger rigs. Public drinking water in the region meets New Brunswick Department of Health standards, so filling your fresh tank at any approved campground tap is safe. Pro tip: ask your RVezy host at pickup if they've topped off the fresh-water tank and emptied black/grey, it saves a stop on day one of your RV camping Lamèque adventure.
www2.gnb.ca/content/gnb/en/departments/health/HealthyEnvironments/content/water/drinking_water.htmlWhat amenities can I expect inside my Lamèque RV rental?
You'll feel right at home. Most RVezy rentals in the Lamèque area come fully equipped: real beds (queen or king in many Class C and travel trailer models), a kitchen with fridge, stove, microwave, and cookware, a private bathroom with toilet and shower, climate control with furnace and air conditioning, and seatbelts for every traveling passenger. Many listings also include a TV, Bluetooth stereo, outdoor awning, camp chairs, and a propane BBQ. Wi-Fi and onboard generators are common add-ons, useful when boondocking near Miscou Island where cell signal can dip. Each listing's amenity list is shown clearly with photos. Pro tip: filter by sleeps count to match your group size and check for a bike rack if you plan to cycle Lamèque's scenic coastal routes.
tourismnewbrunswick.ca/listing/town-lamequeWhat add-ons and pickup options can I choose with my Lamèque RV?
Customizing your rental is easy. Popular RVezy add-ons in the Lamèque area include delivery and setup (often $2 to $4 per km from the host's location), kitchen and linen kits ($50 to $125), generator use, propane refills, bike racks, kayak racks, and tank dumping at return. Some hosts also offer pet packages with bowls, mats, and a portable fence. Pickup is typically a 30 to 60 minute appointment at the host's location, where you'll get a full walkthrough. Mileage policies are clearly listed (daily limit plus a per-km overage rate, or unlimited on select rentals). Pro tip: book the kitchen and bedding kit on your first trip, it saves a packing headache and you can fully enjoy fresh Acadian seafood right away.
tourismnewbrunswick.ca/listing/lameque-visitor-information-centreHow does payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?
Payment is simple and secure. When you book your RV rental in Lamèque, you pay through the RVezy platform with a credit card, never directly to the host. Your booking total includes the nightly rate, RVezy service fees, your chosen protection plan, taxes, and any add-ons. A refundable security deposit is held separately from the booking payment (typically $500 to $1,500 CAD depending on the RV), authorized on your card before the trip and released after return, assuming everything comes back in good shape. To avoid issues, do a quick walk-around video with your host at pickup and drop-off, return with the agreed fuel level, and stay within the mileage allowance. Pro tip: take dated photos of the interior at both ends of your trip, it keeps everyone aligned.
