Acadian Historical Village

It is cool to see the progression of homes and lifestyle of the Acadians from the mid-1800s up to the mid-20th century. The village is huge; it’s a full day visit, with many homes and buildings to see in a village format. The people who portray the villagers as it was during that period do an amazing job of being in character, from cooking the food as they did back then to farming and working at a business.

The print shop, blacksmith, and barrel maker were also highlights. They also have a restaurant on site that offers a menu catered to that period. It smells delicious!

Eco-MusĂ©e de l’HuĂ®tre

Designated a local historic site because of its commercial and residential vocation, the Dugas house was built in 1923 according to plans by architect Nazaire Dugas (1864-1942), a native of Caraquet.

The Dugas family has been recognized as Caraquet oyster specialists for a long time; the local oyster is called the “Dugas Caraquette.” Normally, visitors are invited to an Acadian-style oyster tasting experience: how to open, taste, and prepare them. It is also possible to buy them. As the eco-museum has a souvenir shop, you can also do some shopping there.

Distillerie Fils du Roy

Take a tour! What a great place to stop as you explore New Brunswick. Do the free tour of the beer/gin/whiskey distillery and tasting afterward. The staff is superb, very knowledgeable, and informative—an outstanding experience.
