Kent blends coastal calm with Acadian culture and year-round outdoor fun. Weekends might mean beach walks on the Irving Eco-Centre – La Dune de Bouctouche near Bouctouche, paddling quiet river estuaries, or cycling and stargazing in Kouchibouguac National Park. Dockside sunsets and fresh-caught seafood define evenings in Richibucto. And when you need a broader selection of shops, restaurants, or flights, Moncton is close enough for an easy commute while daily life here stays unhurried.
Families appreciate the blend of English and French education. High schoolers head to Bonar Law Memorial High School in Rexton or École Clément-Cormier in Bouctouche, supported by a network of neighborhood K–8 schools. Healthcare is anchored by the Stella-Maris-de-Kent Hospital, while culture thrives at Le Pays de la Sagouine’s boardwalk village, where theatre, music, and Acadian fare animate summer nights. Housing runs the spectrum—from heritage farmhouses and riverfront cottages to newer builds—often at prices that compare favorably to larger centers. With beaches, groomed trails, and boat launches close at hand, four-season recreation is part of the routine rather than a special trip.
