Purchase fresh catch in nearby coastal communities before heading to your remote cabin or campsite.

Apple River is the epitome of coastal solitude, located on the Chignecto Bay arm of the Bay of Fundy. This small community is first-rate for travelers seeking to disconnect and immerse themselves in the raw beauty of Atlantic Canada. The coastline here is defined by dramatic cliffs and expansive mudflats, visible at low tide from areas like The Bar and Pollys Flats. Edgetts Beach provides a quiet spot for beachcombing and enjoying the salty breeze. The region is near the Chignecto Game Sanctuary, making it excellent for wildlife spotting. While amenities are sparse, the local character and natural scenery are unparalleled. It is reached via winding coastal roads that offer sweeping views at every turn.
