Spanning the Barra Strait of the Bras d'Or Lake, Grand Narrows is known for its rail bridge and the Barra Strait Marina rather than any cargo trade. On Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, the site today serves recreational boating and seasonal tourism, with no commercial freight handling. Although the channel runs to about 7.9 m, there are no terminals, cranes or customs services for container, bulk or breakbulk traffic. Commercial shippers should turn to the Port of Sydney or the deepwater facilities at Point Tupper on the Strait of Canso.
