Ministers Island is an enchanting place to experience. Lying just off the shore near St. Andrews, New Brunswick, Canada, this 500-acre island is only a part-time island. You reach it by driving over the seafloor approximately one kilometer (1/2 mile).
Once there, you are immersed in an experience from the late 19th and early 20th century – the summer estate of Sir William Van Horne, the driving force behind the Canadian Pacific Railway.
Sir William’s vast house, his equally large barn and his bathhouse/artist’s hideaway are on view, as are the beautiful carriage lanes through the woods and fields. Time stands still, and you’re swept up in an atmosphere that makes you forget all about your everyday life and the here-and-now.

Depart the St. Andrews area and set out on your sightseeing adventure. You will get to witness first-hand the effects of the Bay of Fundy-home of the highest tides in the world – while experiencing the beautiful scenery which allowed New Brunswick to be known as “The Picture Province”.
You will be taken for a drive – somewhat off the beaten path -along the Bay of Fundy coastline. Along the way, you will discover a series of hidden gems, including waterfalls, a sandy beach (where you’ll likely find a few seashells ) and get to experience some of the most beautiful vistas in Canada – if not the world.
Your tour will include stops at St. George – a quaint town where you can grab a treat and see waterfalls with a fishway (to allow Atlantic Salmon and other fish to swim above the falls to a freshwater river) – and Beaver Harbour – a lovely active fishing village which is also full of history.
