Ross Ferry Marine Park The Google rating is 4.7

The Ross Ferry Marine Park is located on the scenic Bras d’Or Lake in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. Formerly Ross Ferry Provincial Park, the park is a small community-managed, day use area with a boat launch that provides access to the Bras d’Or Lake.

Located at the site where the former ferry travelled between Ross Ferry and Big Harbour across the Great Bras d’Or channel until the Seal Island Bridge opened in 1961. The Ross Ferry Stewardship Society, a volunteer based community organization, was formed and negotiated an agreement with the Province of Nova Scotia to create and manage the Marine Park.

Today, this vibrant community park includes picnic areas, walking trails, wharf facilities, public boat launch, and a children’s playground in an idyllic setting along the shores of the Bras d’Or Lake. Be sure to join us on Canada Day and Labour Day each summer for a day of festivities in the park!

Serviced with a Park attendant from Canada Day to Labour Day each year, join us for Sunday festivities each week; hot dogs, fries, and soft drinks are available to purchase on Sundays throughout the summer.
