BLACKBUSH the Only Island

Although joined at mid tide, you can walk on our island as it is a part of the National Park (Parks Canada). If you walk Blackbush’s perimeter you will complete a 3-Mile trek, which is exactly the distance the rum-running ships like the Nellie J. Banks had to park off Blackbush’s shore in the days of prohibition. 3-Mile Limit - the crew would load and unload their liquor via Blackbush Island under the cover of darkness.
