Why the lobster roll feels different here
The town’s coastal heritage means the lobster you’ll find on the wharf is often still alive when it reaches the kitchen. Small family‑run shacks still use hand‑tied nets and charge by the pound, allowing you to watch the catch being boiled in copper pots before it’s flaked onto a buttered roll. This immediacy gives a texture and flavour that large‑scale processors can’t replicate, and the modest setting encourages a slower, more social meal, with locals swapping stories about tides and fishing seasons as you eat.
Getting on the water without a boat
While most visitors think of chartering a yacht to explore the harbour, a quieter alternative is to join the community‑run kayak programme. Seasonal volunteers offer free paddles for short trips, pointing out the historic lighthouses and the hidden coves where turtles nest. Because the waters are fed by the Bay of Fundy, timing a low‑tide paddle lets you walk across exposed sea‑beds, revealing the geological layers that have shaped the shoreline for millennia. It’s a low‑cost way to experience the maritime landscape that most guidebooks overlook.
