Camping near Saint David, New Brunswick
Saint David is a rural parish in Charlotte County, southwestern New Brunswick, located northeast of St. Stephen and northwest of Saint Andrews. The parish sits between the St. Croix River, which forms the Canada and United States border with Maine, and the tidal waters of Passamaquoddy Bay at the northern arm of the Bay of Fundy. This places RV travellers within a short drive of both the U.S. border crossing at St. Stephen and the resort town of Saint Andrews-by-the-Sea.
The area is compact and easy to base out of. Oak Bay Campground sits on 33.5 acres along the shores of the Bay of Fundy, and has offered a chance to walk on the ocean floor during the twice-daily tidal cycles since it was established in 1955. Kiwanis Passamaquoddy Park, also known as Kiwanis Oceanfront Camping, is located at 550 Water Street in Saint Andrews with convenient access to the Bay of Fundy and the coastal town. Island View Camping in Bayside, Hilltop Campground, and McAdam (Wauklehegan) Lake Campground round out the local options and add inland lake and river settings.
Day trips reach Fundy tides, coastal islands, and Passamaquoddy Bay whale-watching harbours without a long drive.
Things to do near Saint David
The main draw is the Bay of Fundy tidal cycle. At Oak Bay Campground, guests can walk on the exposed ocean floor at low tide, roughly twice a day, then watch the water return several metres higher. The property features scenic walking trails through wooded areas, including a remarkable 500-year-old pine tree, with sunset views over the saltwater bay.
Saint Andrews, about 20 minutes south, is the base for whale-watching tours in Passamaquoddy Bay, the Kingsbrae Garden, the Huntsman Fundy Discovery Aquarium, and ferries to Deer Island and Campobello. St. Stephen, on the U.S. border, is home to the Chocolate Museum and the annual Chocolate Fest tied to the Ganong chocolate heritage. Inland, the McAdam area offers freshwater swimming and paddling on Magaguadavic Lake and access to the historic McAdam Railway Station. Cyclists can follow the quiet Route 127 loop toward Bayside for coastal views.

How to book near Saint David
The nearby campgrounds are privately operated, so reservations go directly through each campground rather than through a central provincial system. Kiwanis Oceanfront Camping takes reservations through its website, but its phone is not monitored November through May, so off-season inquiries are best sent by email or scheduled for the reopening. Oak Bay Campground, Hilltop Campground, Island View Camping, and McAdam (Wauklehegan) Lake Campground each handle their own reservations by phone or online form.
For Kiwanis Oceanfront Camping in Saint Andrews, book online by April for peak summer dates. Mid-week sites in July are usually available even a few weeks out, and the town is noticeably quieter Sunday through Wednesday. RV renters should confirm site length, hookup type (30-amp is standard at Oak Bay and Kiwanis), and any tent-versus-RV restrictions before finalizing.
What to expect on site
Expect classic Maritime coastal camping.

Kiwanis Passamaquoddy Park has 82 sites, including 27 tents-only sites, 10 pull-throughs, 31 full hookups, and 30-amp service. Island View Camping features hookups with electrical and water connections, a dump station, and propane on site, plus an outdoor swimming pool, a playground, a basketball court, and direct beach and trail access along the river.
Sites near the shore can be tight and gravel-based, and cell reception varies. Bring layers for cool coastal evenings, an electrical adapter, and sturdy footwear for walking the tidal flats.
