Newfoundland Parks:
Green Point Campground – Gros Morne National Park
Gros Morne National Park features a world-famous landscape made up of some very dramatic scenery. Between the cascading fjords, towering cliffs and booming waterfalls, you will need to be there for more than a day or two in order to get to see and do it all. With tons of rugged interior campsites and 5 vehicle access campgrounds, you have a wide selection to choose from, but for the best views and proximity to the most fun, your best bet is to stay at Green Point Campground. Open year round, Green Point has flush toilets, a kitchen area and 31 campsite all with spectacular sunset and water views. Similar to the Green Point Campground in Tofino, BC, on the other side of the country, this one offers some of the best coastal views and adventures to wake up to!
Newman Sound Campground – Terra Nova National Park
Situated on the rugged coast of Newfoundland, Terra Nova National Park protects 402 km2 (105 mi2) of boreal forest shelters, abundant marine wildlife, and calm interior ponds and sounds. The park boasts ample opportunity for hiking, biking, paddling, fishing, wildlife viewing, and outdoor adventures of all kinds. Here you will also find one of the most welcoming and charming campgrounds in Canada – Newman Sound Campground. Newman Sound has 342 campsites, 100 that offer electrical hook-ups, showers, laundry facilities, playgrounds and a grocery store.
Notre Dame Campground – Notre Dame Provincial Park
