The adjacent sign contains a map, and you can see that you turn right to get back to the parking lot. At first you continue to ascend, but mercifully the trail soon begins to slope downward. During low tide, large areas of sand are exposed, including a connection to Moose Island. Do not walk there. Tides rise up to one metre in 20 minutes, stranding the unwary, and the currents produced are irresistible.
Access is only by boat, which can be chartered locally.
Cell phone coverage is unusual. On the Minas Basin side of the park a strong signal is available. However, on the inland side of Econmy Mountain, where most of the campsites are found, a call cannot be received or made. Meet in the day use parking lot. Sponsored by the NS Museum of Natural History.
