Parrsboro Activities and Attractions The historic town of Parrsboro was originally located at nearby Partridge Island. In 1784, Admiral John Parr, Governor-General of Nova Scotia, granted its present site, then known as Mill Village, to the residents. The town was relocated and renamed Parrsboro. Many of its stately homes were built in the 1800's. The town was incorporated in 1889. The prime industries of this town of 1600 are tourism, blueberries, strawberries, metal fabrication and forestry.
While in Parrsboro, you can stroll along miles of nearby beaches where agate, amethyst, fossils and minerals are abundant. Experience the "World's Highest Tides" of the Bay of Fundy. Visit the geological and historical museums where you can see dinosaur replicas and explore romance of the bygone shipbuilding era along the Minas Shore. The Parrsboro Shore is a favourite area for nature lovers, with many hiking trails, eco-tour look off locations and abundant areas for bird watching. Dramatic cliffs cascade into the sea, islands provide homes to a host of seabirds - unrivalled scenic beauty everywhere you turn.
Parrsboro is only 45 minutes from New Brunswick, an hour from Truro, less than 2 hours from Halifax and Prince Edward Island. As well, the Moncton Airport is just over an hour away and the Halifax Airport only 90 minutes.
