North Richibucto Dune is a coastal beach area located near Kouchibouguac National Park in New Brunswick's Kent Rural District. The beach features pristine sands and a tranquil atmosphere suitable for swimming. Paddlers can launch directly from the shore. The beach lies several miles in length alongside South Richibucto Beach, flanking Baie du Village with Indian Island situated between them. This geography provides access to the open waters of the Gulf of St. Lawrence as well as the sheltered waters of Baie du Village and its connecting waters, which include Baie de Saint-Louis. A defined sheltered water boundary exists, drawn from a point on North Richibucto Dune at coordinates 46°46.999'N, 64°51.594'W, indicating a transition from exposed coast to protected bay. The area is low and flat, with marram grass dominating the vegetation, characteristic of a dynamic dune system. The region is part of a broader coastal dune complex that includes other named dunes like Pointe Sapin and South Kouchibouguac. The proximity to Kouchibouguac National Park, approximately eight miles away, and the connection to Baie du Village and Baie de Saint-Louis present clear destinations for exploration by kayak or stand-up paddleboard from this beach access point.
