Irving Nature Park is located in Saint John, New Brunswick along the Bay of Fundy coastline. The park is a 600 acre (243 hectare) site and was created by J.D. Irving Limited to help protect an environmentally significant, endangered area.

Irving Nature Park offers over 20 kilometers of nature trails with different lengths and difficulty. Visitors can walk on the long sandy beaches and well-groomed woodlands. More than 250 species of birds have been seen at the park during migration periods. A boardwalk that extends into the salt marsh is ideal for birdwatching. You can watch the harbor seals diving for food or on the rocks from the Seal Observation deck. Irving Nature Park has an observation tower, hidden in the treetops at the highest point on the peninsula. It allows a 360 degree view of the land and seascapes.
