Bathurst, Harbor city in New Brunswick, Canada.
Bathurst is a harbor city along Chaleur Bay and Nepisiguit Bay in northeastern New Brunswick. It stretches across residential and commercial districts shaped by the rivers that flow through the area.
The settlement started as an Acadian community in the 1600s and became an incorporated town in 1912. It gained city status in 1966 as the region continued to develop economically.
The K.C. Irving Regional Centre hosts local sports, where you can watch the Acadie-Bathurst Titan junior ice hockey team play. The team is deeply rooted in the community and draws crowds during the season.
The city is accessible by main highways and has good connections to nearby communities. The area experiences cold winters, so plan visits during the milder summer months if possible.
Four rivers meet here - the Nepisiguit, Middle, Little, and Tetagouche - creating a natural harbor system within the urban landscape. This convergence of waterways provided the natural geography that shaped the city's role as a port.
