Skmaqn-Port-la-Joye-Fort Amherst National Historic Site
A monumental site where four cultures converged: the Mi’kmaq, French, Acadian and British. Although the earthworks of the British fort are the only visible reminder of the diverse history of this site, it still has many stories to tell and a breathtaking beauty. Visit the Blockhouse lighthouse, wander along one of the 9 trails or take a pause at the Acadian Odyssey Monument.
