Did you know, the Musquash is the only Marine Protected Area (MPA) in the Bay of Fundy? MPAs help keep the most important habitats intact, healthy, and productive for all the wildlife and human communities that depend on them. The Musquash MPA safeguards the largest ecologically intact estuary in the Bay of Fundy, and the abundance of plants and wildlife that live in the estuary.
