Clark's Harbour
Last Update March 3, 2005
The Town of Clark's Harbour is a major fishing community and home of the Cape Island fishing fleet. You will find many friendly and helpful fishermen working around the wharves if you need information about the islands and surrounding area.
In the town of Clark's Harbour, within walking distance from the wharf, is a grocery store where you can get supplies. It is the only one on Cape Sable Island. The Seaside Heritage Centre is another excellent source of information and local history. A laundry, Royal Bank, post office, Visitors Information Centre and many other conveniences and places of interest are to be found. Located at Kenney Wharf is the Fisherman's Haven. Hot food, sandwiches, hot/cold drinks can be bought here during the day.
