Campgrounds and RV parks near Cacouna, QC

Cacouna sits on the south shore of the St. Lawrence in the Bas-Saint-Laurent region of Quebec, about ten minutes by road from Rivière-du-Loup along Route 132. The village is a quiet base for exploring the estuary, the salt marshes east of town, and Parc côtier Kiskotuk, a coastal park spread across several discovery sectors in Cacouna, L'Isle-Verte, and Île Verte. Most RV-friendly campgrounds cluster within a short drive of the village. Camping Lido sits near Rivière-du-Loup with spacious sites suited to larger rigs. Camping Chez Jean is set inland in Saint-Antonin, while Camping Le Rayon De Soleil is a full-service park in Saint-Alexandre-de-Kamouraska, less than fifteen minutes from Rivière-du-Loup. Across the estuary on the Côte-Nord, Camping Bon-Desir and Camping Paradis Marin in Les Bergeronnes draw travellers looking to camp directly on the whale-watching coast, with both properties bordering the Saguenay-St. Lawrence Marine Park.

Private campgrounds in the Cacouna, Rivière-du-Loup, and Les Bergeronnes area take reservations directly, by phone or through their own websites, rather than through a provincial portal. Camping Paradis Marin takes phone reservations for serviced sites, requires a credit-card number to guarantee the booking, sets a minimum of two nights or three nights on holiday weekends, and caps each call at three reservations; reservations open on April 1 each year and only serviced sites can be reserved. Camping Bon-Desir, Camping Lido, Camping Chez Jean, and Camping Le Rayon De Soleil also handle bookings directly through the operator. For peak July and August weekends, book several weeks ahead, especially for full-service sites that can accommodate larger motorhomes.
