Grand Manan Island

Fundy Isles (Fundy Coastal Drive)

Just a 90-minute ferry trip from Black’s Harbour is a maritime-lovers dream come true. With its unspoiled natural beauty and friendly people, Grand Manan - the largest of the Fundy Isles - is a natural wonder in the Bay of Fundy.

The lighthouses, beaches, rugged, soaring cliffs, colourful fishing boats, wildflowers and birdlife - over 240 species of birds make the island their home – not to mention some of the best whale-watching in the world - have long attracted nature lovers, artists, photographers, authors, geologists and hikers. Others come to kayak, cycle, or discover secluded beaches. Throw in scenic (and active) fishing villages and you’ll begin to see that Grand Manan is a perfect holiday destination to enjoy the beauty and serenity of nature at its best.
