Herring Cove Provincial Park, covering 425 hectares on the eastern side of Campobello Island, is a very well developed park complete with campgrounds, hiking trails a mile-long beach, golf course, pro shop and restaurant.

The Herring Cove Beach, with dark sand and pebbles, was a popular summer haunt of the rich and famous who made this island their summer playground a century ago. Karen and I visited the crescent-shaped beach late in the day in early September, and were quickly driven away by biting flies. I do not know if the flies are a problem at other times of day or earlier in the season.
