Reflecting two National Historic Site designations, the rich history of Beaubears Island has been a corner stone in the development of Miramichi Landings. Beaubears Island, famed for its shipbuilding history and its ties to the Acadian expulsion, is now one of the greatest tourist attractions in the province.

In recent years, the Island’s neighbouring Bicentennial Park has undergone many upgrades that included the construction of an interpretive center that uses state-of-the-art technology to enhance its storytelling activities, the installation of floating docks, beautiful landscaping, and interpretive character performances.

Miramichi Landings has adopted this already flourishing island and community park in order to draw more visitors, local and abroad, to tell the amazing history of this Canadian natural landmark. The interpretive center at Bicentennial Park offers visitors a look into the history of both the people and the industry that shaped Beaubears Island for centuries. Of course, no visit would be complete without an amazing interpretive walking tour of the Island that is available from June 30 – August 28, at which visitors will learn about the history of Beaubears Island, meeting some of the Island’s settlers along the way.

Beaubears Island Interpretive Center is open daily, May 17 – September 30.
