3,745 hectares. It includes a significant stretch of the Atlantic coastline; boulder, cobble and barrier beaches, lagoons and dune complexes are common. Its ecosystems are dominated by barrens, bogs, lakes and ponds, slow-moving streams, poorly drained coniferous flats, drumlinoid hills and undulating coniferous terrain. A naturally-occurring coastal white spruce forest marks the boundary between coastal and terrestrial ecosystems.
