If you’re headed on the Cabot Trail before arriving in the village of Chéticamp, take the road to Chéticamp Island. Drive past the beautiful beach of La Plage Saint-Pierre and the campground until you reach the end of the road, where La Pointe awaits. Nestled in this scenic location, La Pointe is where history and nature converge, telling a story of resilience, community, and transformation. Located just down the street from Le Cap Hôtel, La Pointe reflects the shared vision to preserve Chéticamp’s heritage while embracing a sustainable future.
Once Chéticamp’s main fishing harbor, La Pointe thrived until the early 1980s, when it was abandoned and fell into neglect. Over time, the area became a site marked by illegal dumping and environmental decline. However, recent efforts have breathed new life into this historic location. The land, purchased after years of being on the market, is now being transformed into a dynamic attraction featuring a museum, restaurant, and cabins. These developments honour the area’s rich fishing heritage and blend history with new experiences for visitors.
Today, La Pointe’s environment is flourishing, with wild coastal plants reclaiming the landscape and migratory seabirds returning to nest on the cliffs. As construction progresses, the site is becoming a sanctuary where nature and history intersect. Future guests can explore scenic walking trails, relax on accessible beaches, enjoy breathtaking ocean views, and visit the museum. With opportunities to savour local cuisine and immerse in the area’s natural beauty, La Pointe offers a diverse and enriching experience for all.
The revitalization of La Pointe is deeply rooted in community involvement. All restoration and construction efforts are carried out by local contractors, reflecting a commitment to supporting the people and businesses of Chéticamp. This project aims to create a new destination and reinvigorate the community, providing opportunities that celebrate local culture and craftsmanship.
Sustainability is at the core of La Pointe’s development, mirroring the values of Le Cap Hôtel. Eco-friendly construction practices and careful preservation of local flora and fauna ensure that every aspect of the project respects the environment. As La Pointe evolves, it is a testament to our dedication to blending historic preservation with modern sustainability.
As La Pointe’s transformation continues, it is set to offer an unparalleled experience for those seeking a connection to nature, culture, and history. The site’s revitalization aims to create a meaningful space where visitors can engage with the past while enjoying the comforts of a modern retreat.
