Campgrounds near Pennfield

The village is a practical base for RV travelers exploring the Fundy Isles, the Passamaquoddy Bay shoreline, and the New River Beach area, with campground options ranging from full-service private parks to provincial park sites and small island campgrounds reached by ferry.
The closest coastal campground is New River Beach Provincial Park, located near Maces Bay on the Bay of Fundy and administered by NB Parks.

Ferry-accessible parks include Deer Island Point Park at the southern tip of Deer Island and Herring Cove Provincial Park on Campobello Island.

Most RV travelers use Pennfield as a hub for day trips to Fundy tidal beaches, whale-watching harbours, and Campobello Island, while sleeping at one of the nearby parks.
Things to do near Pennfield
Tidal beaches and coastal trails dominate the area. New River Beach Provincial Park has a sweeping tidal beach with rocky outcrops that submerge at high tide, plus coastal nature trails through bog and spruce forest with dwarfed conifers, sundews, and Labrador tea. Tide pools hold barnacles, sea urchins, and rock crabs.
On Campobello Island, Herring Cove Provincial Park features seven trails of varying lengths, a beach roughly 1.6 km long, sheer cliffs, an old Roosevelt-era carriage road, and a 9-hole golf course. Wildlife spotting includes bald eagles, osprey, seals, and porpoises.
St. Andrews adds whale-watching tours, Kingsbrae Garden, and Ministers Island at low tide. Deer Island offers quiet coastal viewpoints, the Deer Island Point Lighthouse, and the swirling tides at the Old Sow whirlpool.

How to book
New Brunswick provincial park sites, including New River Beach and Herring Cove, are reserved through the NB Parks system at parcsnbparks.ca. Seasonal reservations for the 2026 season opened in mid-January, and nightly reservations opened on February 10 at 9 a.m. Atlantic time. Oceanfront sites at both parks book out well in advance for July and August weekends.
Private parks are booked directly with the operator. Kiwanis Passamaquoddy Park in St. Andrews takes reservations by phone and email through its office. Deer Island Point Park is booked directly with the campground office, and payment is often cash only. Booking the RV first and then locking in the site is the safest approach for peak-season dates.
What to expect
Expect cool nights, salt air, and coastal fog that often burns off by mid-morning. Water temperatures in the Bay of Fundy stay cold year-round, so beaches are for walking and tide-pool exploration rather than long swims. Tides swing dramatically, so check tide tables before beach hikes and kayak trips.
Site types vary. New River Beach offers 99 campsites plus four rustic shelters and Ch-A-let cabins, spread across serviced and unserviced loops. Herring Cove has 88 campsites, 40 of them with electricity, along with five rustic shelters, a dump station, showers, and laundry. Deer Island Point Park has around 79 sites, most with 15/30 amp electric, and is cash only.
Cell coverage on Deer Island and Campobello is patchy and phones sometimes jump to US carriers, so download maps and ferry schedules in advance.
