How to get to Parlee Beach Provincial Park
Parlee Beach is in Shediac, about a 25 minute drive east of Moncton via Route 15, and roughly 2.5 hours from Fredericton via the Trans-Canada Highway. The nearest major airport for fly-and-rent travelers is Greater Moncton Roméo LeBlanc International Airport, about 30 minutes west. Routes into the park are lowland coastal highways without mountain passes or long tunnels, but RV drivers should watch for narrow shoulders on local roads near the beach and for heavy summer traffic in downtown Shediac. Travelers continuing to Prince Edward Island should note Confederation Bridge wind restrictions for high-profile vehicles.
