About This Seaport
At dawn, the wharves of Shippegan fill with crews loading traps for lobster and snow crab, the catch that built this corner of New Brunswick's Acadian Peninsula. Coded CA SHP, the harbour sits between Chaleur Bay and the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and hosts one of the province's largest inshore and offshore fishing fleets. Its commercial role is overwhelmingly seafood: landing, processing and cold storage rather than container, breakbulk or customs-cleared general cargo. A cargo-pier depth of about 3.4 m keeps traffic limited to smaller vessels. Road access runs via the bridge-causeway to Lamèque Island and onward through Gloucester County. Shippers needing container or conventional freight capacity should look to Saint John or Halifax.
