Campgrounds and RV parks near Colombier, QC

Colombier is a small village on Quebec's Côte-Nord (North Shore), strung along Route 138 between Forestville and Baie-Comeau in the Manicouagan region. The St. Lawrence Estuary defines the area: tides, salt marshes, rocky coves, and long sand beaches sit beside boreal forest. RV travellers typically use Colombier as a quiet base on a longer Route 138 road trip running from Tadoussac toward Havre-Saint-Pierre. Named campgrounds in the broader area suit different itineraries. Camping De La Mer in Pointe-Lebel sits in the Manicouagan region, has 306 sites with roughly half shaded, and offers bicycle rental. Further south toward Tadoussac, Camping Paradis Marin in Les Bergeronnes offers 158 sites along a bluff over the St. Lawrence. Across the estuary in Bas-Saint-Laurent, Bic Provincial Park sits in the Bas-Saint-Laurent tourism region, with park entrances off Route 132 between Saint-Fabien and Rimouski. Bas St. Laurent KOA Resort and Camping Annie round out options on the south shore for travellers crossing by ferry.

Reservations for provincial parks in Quebec go through Sépaq, the Société des établissements de plein air du Québec, which administers most of the national parks of Quebec rather than Parks Canada. Bic Provincial Park sites can be booked online at the Sépaq website. Summer camping reservations typically open the previous November, with launch days staggered by park, so popular waterfront sites can sell out quickly. A park entry fee also applies in addition to the campsite, and the daily access right or annual card must be purchased before the visit. Private campgrounds on the Côte-Nord, including Camping De La Mer, Camping Paradis Marin, and Camping Annie, take direct bookings by phone or through their own websites, and several are also listed on Camping Québec. Reserve serviced (water, electric, sewer) RV sites well in advance for July and August weekends.
