Mary's Point is one of the major stop-over points for two to three million shorebirds on their southerly migration each year. The Mary's Point Shorebird Reserve was created specifically to protect these migrating shorebirds during their awesome journey that starts in the Arctic and ends in South America.

An informative on-site interpretation centre displays the fascinating story of the shorebirds, as well as information on other birds and wildlife native to the area. Interpretive staff are on-site during the summer season. A short trail leads down to the beach viewing area, where large flocks of shorebirds can be seen during high tide from mid-July to mid-August. Picnic area and washrooms available.
