Herring Cove Provincial Park is a provincial park located on Campobello Island, New Brunswick.[1]
In addition to the campground and sandy beach, the provincial park has a seafood diner and golf course, which has won minor recognition.[2][3] The park has seven trails, 88 campsites and 5 rustic shelters.[4]
History
The tent-camping facilities were vastly improved during the 1960s.[5][6]
In 1973, a 50 cent entry fee was instituted causing island residents to protest.[7] In 1980, a Tourism Centre was built in the park.[8]
