New Brunswick's coast along the Bay of Chaleur is as pretty as some of the World's most famous. A lot of the rugged coastline is not seen from the highway. Unless you drive on the side streets and find the beaches , you miss the beauty.
Coast near Grande Anse:
There are cliffs, coves and faces in the rocks. A lot of the land on the cliffs is private property but few properties have been built.
Pokeshaw Communal Park:
I've been to the beach a few times. This beach has parking and it is famous for photography. The large rock is Pokeshaw Island, also nicknamed bird island.
Janeville:
The beach in Janeville is one of the biggest stretches of walkable beach I've seen in the Atlantic Provinces. Driftwood is scattered about, woods are opposite the coast. Locals collect driftwood to burn and some make campfires on the beach when it's allowed. People kayak in the summer. There are neat cabins that you can rent nightly. The cabins attract visitors who are visiting Bathurst, about 15 minutes away.
The Bay of Chaleur is pretty calm and has the feel of a lake. It neat to see the beaches during low tide vs high tide Some spots of the Bay you can see the bottom in low tide.
