Rocky Point - Pictou County

Rocky Point

Rocky Point is a prominent rocky headland on the Northumberland Strait in the the community of Marshville. It is part of the same shoreline system that includes Rushtons Beach and nearby sheltered coves; its rocky shore contrasts with the neighbouring sandy beaches and saltmarsh flats and helps define local nearshore currents and wave patterns in Amet Sound.
