Caraquet Parish

Caraquet Parish lies along Caraquet Bay on New Brunswick’s Acadian Peninsula, where low coastal land meets sheltered waters opening toward the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The parish forms part of the rural surroundings of Caraquet and belongs to a strongly francophone area shaped by Acadian settlement and maritime livelihoods. Bays, marshes and wooded stretches give this coast a dispersed, small-community character rather than an urban one. In nearby Caraquet, the annual Festival acadien culminates on 15 August, National Acadian Day, with the lively Tintamarre procession.
