Canada - New Brunswick - Minister Island

Another remote island in Canada which you can access by boat or during its low tide  20 feet/6meters you can drive over a bar to access this park.  We anchor out and go to shore at high tide, when no other visitor is there.

This island has well maintained carriage trails. This Acadian forest has native trees: yellow birch, red spruce, American beech and sugar maple. There is a dilapidated homestead of the minister and a well maintained estate of a past railroad baron.   We saw several white tail deer, bald eagles, osprey and song birds on our walk. What was exceptional about this island trail was that they had very well positioned Adirondack chairs overlooking sweeping views of Passamaquoddy Bay.  Our first hike with several rest stops in chairs and log footrests to enjoy the view.  O Canada! What a treat


20 foot tides, so we drag the dinghy up and when we return she will be in water
