Sightseeing

The trail network is amazing and relatively easy. I recommend the trail that goes to the beach. Partial boardwalk. Coastal views, forest, beach with very few visitors.

Take a step back in time. Sherbrooke Village offers a unique experience, walk and take a tour of the Village, stop at the Tea House for lunch or a snack, visit the gallery or watch the Blacksmith or potter hard at work. Bring a picnic and enjoy the grounds.

Beautiful Beach where a freshwater lake flows into the Port Hilford Bay. Idea for the perfect beach day. Bring your pool floats to float down the stream, enjoy a swim, bring a fishing rod to fish from the rocks. No bathrooms on sight. Not over crowded. Protected from the harsh Ocean surf. Fun Fact: Port Hilford Beach is future home of 'The Whale Sanctuary Project'.
