Cape John (45°49'N., 63°07'W.), with sharp sandstone points 12.2 to 15.2m high, is the E entrance point of Amet Sound, which affords good anchorage for vessels of moderate size. The entrance to the sound is divided by Amet Shoals and Waugh Shoal into three passages. John Bay, Brule Harbor, Barrachois Harbor, and Tatamagouche Bay all lie at the inner end of the sound.
