Located 100 kilometres north of Moncton, the town covers an area of 11.4 square kilometres, with a population of 1,290 inhabitants. Bordered by the majestic Richibucto River, the main business and real estate activities have developed along its coasts. The Town is accessible via Route 11 and Route 134, as well as by water, via fishing boats and leisure crafts.
Take time to relax and view the ocean, while sitting comfortably in the Louis J. Robichaud Park. Flow with the rhythm of the fishermen by circulating freely on one of the biggest wharfs the region has to offer. While strolling down Main Street, take time to admire the magnificent wooden boat that was built in celebration of the new millennium.One of Richibucto’s most prized possessions is without a doubt its cultural diversity. Many artists and crafters have chosen to live in this region to pursue their art or craft.
What most characterizes Richibucto is its linguistic diversity. Nowhere else will you find three cultures as rich as the French, English and Mi’kmaq. While strolling across town, it is common to hear these three languages throughout the many conversations.
