On the way to…
Three kilometres from Lumsden off Route 330. It protects a long sand and beachrock bar between the sea and a calm barachois, and habitat for migrating shorebirds. The province classes it as a park reserve, and reserves have no day-use or camping facilities. Many were provincial parks whose campground was leased out. Come for the beach and bring what you need.
Stopping here adds about 1.3 km to that drive (307 km start to finish).
