A COASTAL VILLAGE WITH VARIED ATTRACTIONS
Neguac, a fishing community with a blend of three cultural heritages, invites you to discover its golden beaches and Acadian hospitality! Spend an afternoon on the waves! Take the path to Île- aux-foins. At the Île-aux-foins lighthouse you’ll find a picnic spot and playground. Swim in a protected cove with some of the warmest salt waters north of Virginia! Observe birds from atop a tower overlooking Miramichi Bay.
Choose among well-known local restaurants! A stroll on the municipality’s fishing wharf and a chat with a fisher are a good way to end the day. You’ll definitely hear legends of the sea and the story of the Savoie Family Capital… our first settlers and the ancestors of a family that now spans the continent!
In the fall, hike the trails that will allow you to discover the richest seasonal colours. During the tourist season, you can get more information at the Visitor Information Centre at 708 rue Principale.
