Point of interest

edit

This community is home to Barachois Provincial Park. This picnic park was once a farm, but it is situated on a knoll under a canopy of trees providing a secluded and shaded picnicking experience. Nearby fishing opportunities are available on the Bras d'Or Lakes. A short trail leads from the park down to a marshy lagoon.[2]
