Murray Beach Provincial Park

Tips for Snagging a Campsite Reservation

1. A popular campground with seasonal campers, Murray Beach Provincial Park campsites are often snagged as soon as the park booking system opens. Because of this, if you’re looking for a serviced RV spot, book as early as possible using either the Parks New Brunswick online booking system or by calling the park directly.
2. Turning up with your tent on the day you want to stay may secure you a spot, especially mid-week or outside of the busiest times (July and August), but get there as close to 2pm as possible when check-in starts.

When to Go

Camping is only offered at Murray Beach between May 22 and September 20, and you’ll find it busiest in high summer and around Canadian holidays. Although the weather can be fine in May, your best bet for warm beach days is from mid-June onwards, as it may still be a bit chilly and damp before that. Early fall can still be hot and sunny though, and a September booking will be less busy.

Know Before You Go

• Set right on the beach with little tree coverage, the campground can get windy. You’ll need to tether those guy ropes!
• Pack plenty of bug spray. Because wetlands sit close to Murray Beach Provincial Park, mosquitoes can be a problem, especially at dusk.
• You’ll need a vehicle to access this secluded park, as there are no transit options. 
• The park is close to the Confederation Bridge that links PEI and New Brunswick, so day trips to that province are a popular option so long as you’re prepared to pay bridge tolls.
