The Margaretsville lighthouse dates to 1859, and the village wharf provides a spectacular view of raw, red cliffs towering over the Bay of Fundy. In the days of schooner traffic these bluffs were used by “wreckers” to lure unsuspecting vessels to their tragic end. In an old fish shack near the wharf a co-operative studio gallery displays the work of crafters from the area, and visitors are able to watch an artist at work. There is a small picnic park known as Willett Park, and parking and washrooms are available in the village.
