Broughton Strait Campground
A simple, rustic campground within walking distance of downtown Port McNeill, BC, with level sites, free showers and easy access to the ferries; the approach road is badly rutted.
What visitors say
Broughton Strait Campground is a small, rustic campground right in Port McNeill, close to the marina, the ferries and restaurants. Visitors describe it as quiet at night and family-oriented, with plenty of anglers staying.
Sites are level and have water, sewer and electricity, though they're fairly close together and tent sites don't offer much privacy. Toilets and showers are clean, showers are free, and a dishwashing sink with warm water next to the bathhouse is handy for tenters. The host is described as friendly and easy to deal with, and prices are fair. One class A owner got up the hill without trouble.
It's a practical base for catching a ferry, and one couple took theirs to Malcolm Island to bike and watch for whales. Rain is common, so come prepared for wet weather.
The road up to the campground is rough and rutted, and a recent visitor also found it unclear where the attendant was or whether sites were tidied between guests. Book online ahead so you have a site assigned on arrival.
