Best time to visit Bamberton Provincial Park
July and August offer the warmest, driest weather and the best conditions for swimming, paddling and beach days on Saanich Inlet. The park is very popular in the summer months, and can be busy as well in June, when a number of nearby schools make field trips to study the intertidal life on the beach. Late spring and September are strong shoulder-season options for RV travellers seeking quieter campsites and mild temperatures. Winter stays are typically limited, as services are reduced outside the operating season.

We went on our first RV trip as a family and had a fantastic time. The host was communicative and the RV was clean and worked really well. We will for sure rent again.

We had a great experience renting this 29-foot RV from Stanislav. We picked it up at Swartz Bay in Victoria, traveled up the east coast of Vancouver Island, crossed over at Powell River, and made our way down the Sunshine Coast to Vancouver before returning it to Swartz Bay. The RV itself was very nice and everything worked as it should. The battery was particularly impressive—we were able to stay two full days on battery power without any issues. The generator also worked perfectly, and overall the camper was comfortable, reliable, and well equipped. Stanislav was also very helpful and made the pickup and drop-off at Swartz Bay easy. He offers delivery and pickup there for an additional fee, which was very convenient for us. One piece of advice for future renters: plan your route carefully if you are crossing between Vancouver Island and the mainland. We ended up taking five different ferry crossings during our trip, which added a significant amount to the cost. If we did the trip again, we would plan a route with fewer ferries. Overall, we really enjoyed the RV and would happily rent from Stanislav again.

Great communication, everything on-time and as expected. Mark and his trailer are both lovely.

This was our first time renting a trailer and it was awesome! Mark and his wife were lovely people and it was a pleasure meeting and communicating with them. We had everything we needed in the trailer and it worked perfectly for where we were with no hookups. Anytime we had questions, Mark was very quick to answer and explained everything about the trailer before they left. Thank you so much guys! :)

How to get to Bamberton Provincial Park
The park sits on southern Vancouver Island, roughly 45 km north of Victoria off Highway 1, with the turnoff east onto Mill Bay Road near the north end of the scenic Malahat Drive. Bamberton Park is located a five minute drive south of Mill Bay. RV drivers should prepare for the Malahat, a winding mountain highway with steep grades and sharp curves that can be slow going for larger rigs, especially in wet or windy weather. The nearest major airport is Victoria International Airport (YYJ), about an hour south, making it practical for fly-and-rent RV trips.
