About Megs Cove
Megs Cove is a small sheltered bay on the Cape John shore of the Northumberland Strait, accessible by a short dirt road off of the Cape John Road and valued locally for its quiet beach and coastal scenery.
Visitors typically reach a narrow parking area then walk a short distance to the sand and rocky shore, making it a convenient local beach option with close ties to nearby Cape John communities.
