About Roys Gut
Roys Gut is a small tidal passage situated along the Egerton shoreline of Merigomish Harbour, east of Governor Head. Like many other “guts” located along the Northumberland Strait, it is a narrow, sheltered channel where tidal waters move between low-lying coastal features. The surrounding landscape is characterized by salt marsh, mixed forest, and gently sloping shoreline, contributing to the harbour’s well‑known ecological richness.
