About St. Peter's
The town
St. Peter's lies between St. Peter's Bay on the Atlantic and Bras d'Or Lake, in Richmond County on Cape Breton Island. The census doesn't count the village on its own; Richmond County had 8,914 people in 2021. It is best known for the St. Peter's Canal, an 800 m channel cut through granite between 1854 and 1869 that is now a Parks Canada national historic site used mostly by pleasure boats. The village has a public library and the East Richmond Education Centre (pre-primary to Grade 8). Strait Richmond Hospital in Evanston is the community hospital for the county; Cape Breton Regional Hospital in Sydney is the island's referral centre, with a 24-hour emergency department. The Eastern District Planning Commission issues development and building permits for the Municipality of the County of Richmond, and St. Peter's has its own plan area in the county's planning documents.
Around it
Bras d'Or Lake is a saltwater inland sea and a UNESCO biosphere reserve since 2011. Battery Provincial Park, on Highway 4 overlooking the canal, has a campground, a saltwater beach on St. Peter's Bay and four trails on local history. Potlotek First Nation, a Mi'kmaq community on Chapel Island near the lake, has its office on Highway 4 with a St. Peter's address. The nearest airport with scheduled flights is JA Douglas McCurdy Sydney Airport.
