Ecological Park of the Acadian Peninsula

Geographically located on a migratory route, Lamèque and Miscou Islands are well known as an incredible place for bird watching. No less than 263 species of birds have been known to occur. On Miscou Island, one can see sometimes a hundred different species in one day! These ideal nature conditions have brought the creation of the Ecological Park of the Acadian Peninsula where different area habitats are presented in a fun and informative way for young and old.
