Tour Our Beaches & Harbours

Miminegash, Seacow Pond and Cape Egmont…just a few of the harbour names you won’t find anyplace else...in the world! Some are working harbours, some are sightseeing harbours, some have marine experiences for you to enjoy, but all have stories galore. Stories of life on the sea, of storms and of tragedies, of how boats got their names and of who’s got the biggest catch of the day.
