The oldest remaining lighthouse on mainland New Brunswick...

While at Cape Enrage, you can visit the Lighthouse built in 1848, hike the beautiful coastline, explore the Cape Enrage Beach or take part in a guided adventure.  Whether the sun shines, or the fog rolls in, you will be moved by the rugged, remote beauty of this turbulent jut of land. 

The Lighthouse is located off Route 915, approximately 20 minutes from Alma.  A cautionary note though, if you are towing a trailer, or driving a large RV, the last kilometer of the road, just past the Cape Enrage pebble beach, is twisted, narrow and steep in places.  

Cape Enrage is definitely a 'must see' on your Bay of Fundy vacation.

Visit their adventure website

Challenge yourself as you dangle by a rope over the waters of the Bay of Fundy.  Take part in one of the Cape Enrage rappelling adventures and feel the exuberant rush of adrenaline as you step over the side of a sheer rock face, one that was heaved to an almost vertical position millions of years ago.

You say fear is not your middle name? Then relax quietly on the veranda of the tearoom at the lighthouse keeper's dwelling.  Enjoy a delicious bowl of Fundy Fish Chowder and allow one of the personable summer students employed here to wait on you, or browse the unique local treasures found in the on-site gift shop.

A story of Perseverance and Achievement...

A point of interest to note is that the restorative work at Cape Enrage was initiated several years ago by a local high school teacher with a love and appreciation of our heritage and has been carried out entirely by local students under his supervision. When you visit, make sure you ask one of the students to fill you in on the details.....it's quite a story of achievement.
