💡 Tips
- Explore the Acadian Peninsula by car; distances are often longer than they appear on the map.
- Visit Île aux Foins Park early in the morning for the best and quietest bird watching.
- Try to catch the local Acadian festivals in mid-August to experience the lively Tintamarre.
- Bring mosquito repellent in summer, as the marshy coastal areas can get very buggy.
- Look for road-side seafood shacks to find the freshest catch of the day without the restaurant markup.
