Pinkneys Point Wharf

Last Update March 3, 2005

Pinkneys Point Wharf is at the end of the road.  From here you have good access to Little River Harbour, Comeaus Hill and the Tusket Islands.  Paddling out to the Tusket Islands is not for the novice paddler as currents shift rapidly and are quite strong.  Be very aware of tide, fog and wind conditions!  Kendrick d'Entremont at <www.seaclusion.ca> is a good source of local information about the Tusket Islands. There is a well stocked convenience store at this wharf so it is a convenient spot to resupply from the water.  Fresh seafood is available if it is day when processing is taking place.
