Dalhousie (Heron Bay)

In Dalhousie, rolling hills, rivers, lakes and streams provide a scenic backdrop for New Brunswick’s most northern community. This is the perfect place to unwind, with a beach, campground, playgrounds, and a leisure centre featuring an indoor pool. There are also tennis courts, soccer fields, ball fields and walking trails. Attend a concert or go birdwatching amidst the inviting landscape, which is equally tempting for photographers, artists, rockhounds and watersports amateurs alike. Take your choice of sea kayaking, canoeing, windsurfing, fishing or sailing. If you are looking for something more fast-paced, mountain biking or go-cart racing may be just the thing.

In winter there is a always a variety of cool activities; ice fishing, skating, snowshoeing and snowmobiling; or you could try some downhill or cross-country skiing. If team sports are more your thing, you can always find a curling rink or a hockey game here.

The Inch Arran Park and Campground is a full-service campground. Perhaps the most unique fact about the park is the unexplainable lack of flies and mosquitoes! (We’re not complaining!) We have the only marina in Restigouche County, accommodating up to 100 boats. See the sunrise at Inch Arran Lighthouse, view the sunset from Dalhousie Mountain and take pictures at Inch Arran Point.
