Campobello is well-known as the summer retreat of President Roosevelt, whose cottage has been preserved as part of a Canadian-American International Park.

Kouchibouguac National Park has forest, salt marshes, sand dunes and tidal lagoons while Fundy National park is a spectacular setting of forest and cliffs from which to observe the world famous tides.
