Best time to visit Cabot Beach Provincial Park

The park is a seasonal operation, typically open from late June through early September, and mid-July to mid-August is the warmest and most popular stretch for swimming at Malpeque Bay. Late June and the first week of September offer quieter campgrounds, cooler nights, and easier reservations, which suits RV travelers who prefer shoulder season. Outside the summer operating window the campground and services are closed, though the coastline can still be visited for short day walks when accessible.

All previous five star reviews are accurate! Kyle and Connie are lovely people who take the time to ensure you know how to operate all aspects of Sgt Meep. We are total newbies with lots of questions and Kyle patiently answered every one. The RV had absolutely everything we could need, including a spotless, well maintained interior. We are considering a future purchase and they took their time to answer so many additional questions that were totally unrelated to the rental. Good people with a fabulous RV. Thanks for sharing Sgt. Meep with us. Heather & Dave

We truly enjoyed renting Vincent's RV for six nights. It was equipped well beyond our needs. They (Vincent and his lovely wife) thought of everything. We highly recommend their RV for couples, families or individuals who want to experience the beauty of our country in a relaxing nature. Also, for those concerned with never operating an RV... don't worry. The RV is very easy to drive and Vincent does an excellent job explaining how to operate the RV. If you have a question, he is only a friendly call away. We plan to rent the RV again.

How to get to Cabot Beach Provincial Park

Cabot Beach sits near Malpeque on PEI's north shore, about a 45 to 55 minute drive (roughly 55 to 65 km) from Charlottetown via Route 2 and Route 20, and about 20 minutes north of Kensington. From the mainland, RVers typically enter PEI via the Confederation Bridge from New Brunswick, which has a height and wind advisory system and no stopping for RVs, then follow Route 1A and Route 2 north. The nearest airport for fly-and-rent trips is Charlottetown (YYG); most island roads are two-lane rural highways with no mountain passes, but watch for narrow shoulders, low-hanging trees on secondary roads, and seasonal farm equipment.
