Caraquet welcomes you with sea air, working wharves, and a creative pulse that runs from galleries to lively kitchens serving the catch of the day. Stroll the waterfront boardwalk, then check municipal updates and recreation schedules on the Town’s official portal at the Town of Caraquet. Families appreciate quiet streets, walkable amenities, and a calendar filled with community events that make newcomers feel immediately included.
Culture and history are headline attractions. Plan the year around the Festival acadien de Caraquet, when music, parades, and storytelling fill the town, and step back in time at the immersive Village Historique Acadien nearby. Cyclists love easy access to coastal routes, and day trips are effortless—beach-hop or shop your way through Bathurst, Tracadie, or Shippagan without losing sight of the shoreline. For peace of mind, healthcare is close at hand at the Hôpital de l’Enfant-Jésus RHSJ de Caraquet. You’re also set within the scenic and resourceful Gloucester County, giving you access to regional services and employment.
Education options include École Marguerite-Bourgeoys and Polyvalente Louis-Mailloux, with active parent communities and robust arts and sports programs that mirror the town’s cultural heartbeat. Housing ranges from heritage homes near the harbor to newer builds on quiet lanes, and the market rewards buyers who move decisively. Whether you’re searching for a first home or preparing to sell, Agent Pronto can match you with a top local real estate professional to guide every step.
