Imagine a string of barrier islands stretching from horizon to horizon, with white sandy beaches, and the tallest dunes you'll ever see, seabirds flocking everywhere and not a human in sight............

It was an amazing day that I'll always remember.
I spent two weeks at a beach near Shediac in my youth (it could be Parlee, I have no clue which one it was). The beach was definitely one of the nicest I have seen in this country. The only thing Lake Huron has over NB is the clear blue-ish water, and sometimes nicer sand.
