Sit back and relax for the day at New River Beach Provincial Park. A huge stretch of sand along the Fundy Shore, this saltwater beach offers tidal pools abundant with crabs, periwinkles, whelks and starfish; maritime vistas of offshore islands and fishing boats, and bird-watching opportunities for those looking to add shorebirds to their life-list. The park’s facilities include walking trails and boardwalks, campsites, a playground and volleyball courts, and three rustic shelters air-conditioned by the Fundy breeze.
