With some terrific day trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore everything that Tatamagouche, 40 miles away, has to offer. Tatamagouche Centre, Brule Point Golf and Northumberland Arts Council Fraser Cultural Centre alone make the drive out worthwhile. The locals are also likely to point you toward Pointe-du-Chene, 50 miles away. If you can only find time for one thing here, make sure it’s Parlee Beach Provincial Park. (But we’d also highly recommend Centre for Speed and Shediac’s Giant Lobster.)
