Map of Tabusintac Lagoon and River Estuary
The Tabusintac Lagoon and River Estuary is a wetland in Alnwick Parish, Northumberland County, in north-eastern New Brunswick, Canada. It was classified as a wetland of international importance on June 10, 1993. It is also a globally significant Important Bird Area for the population of common terns, and shorebirds in general, that it supports. Primarily a shallow coastal estuary with gentle slopes, the 50 km2 site is underlain by various sedimentary rocks, including red sandstone and shale. The lagoon system is protected from the Gulf of Saint Lawrence by a constantly shifting barrier beach and dune system that frequently blocks commonly used navigation channels.
