Overview

The Ross Ferry Marine Park is located on the scenic Bras d’Or Lake in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. The park is on the site of the ferry which operated for many years between Ross Ferry and Big Harbour, across the Great Bras d’Or Channel. Today we have a vibrant community park which includes picnic areas, walking trails, refurbished wharf facilities, a sewage pump out for boaters, a boat launch, and a children’s playground, all in an idyllic setting on the shores of the Bras d’Or.
