Nearby communities include Doctors Brook, Malignant Cove, Knoydart, and McArras Brook. The community was founded ca. 1785 by Scottish immigrants who named it after their home, Arisaig, on the west coast of Scotland.[2] There is a government wharf and recently rebuilt lighthouse situated at Arisaig Harbour. The Roman Catholic church is dedicated to St. Margaret of Scotland. The present church was constructed in 1878 and the parish itself was established in 1792. Two cairns are situated in the community - one near the wharf marking the approximate site of the original log cabin church, and a second near the present church commemorating the centennial of its construction. Arisaig Park, which borders on the Northumberland Strait, features significant fossil deposits.[3] References1. ^{{cite cgndb|id=CAAWP|name=Arisaig|accessdate=16 March 2018}} 2. ^{{cite book|last1=Fergusson|first1=C.
