My Name is Teresa James, everyone calls me "Terry", and I am the mayor of Village of Blacks Harbour. Our village, which is "home of the world's largest Sardine Industry" was incorporated in 1972. I am the fourth mayor of our community, as well as the first female mayor.
There are many wonderful activities you can do while visiting Blacks Harbour, including dining, visiting our gift shops, or enjoying a walk around our rugged coastline.
We have several parks and playground for you and your family to enjoy. Our tourist bureau is located directly behind the Silverking Restaurant located on Main Street. While there, why not take a peek through Cricket Cove, a very unique shop filled with various woollens and handmade items. Connors Brothers Limited has a retail outlet inside the Blacks Harbour Supermarket, located on Main Street, to satisfy your seafood request or to sample the world famous "Brunswick" sardines. The Village of Blacks Harbour is the mainland gateway to Grand Manan Island, with a ferry service leaving Wallace Cove terminal on a daily basis. While waiting for the ferry, you can stroll down to Pea Point Island and have a picnic.
If you care to spend an extra day or two here, we have two lovely bed and breakfast establishments in the village. Why not discover what a hidden jewel our quaint, little fishing village is the next time your in our area?
