Sussex
A tiny town in Kings County, New Brunswick, straddling the Kennebecasis River between Saint John, Moncton, and Fredericton, Sussex is best known as the home of Atlantic Canada's largest hot air balloon festival and as a significant dairy-producing centre in the province. The compact central core has cafés and restaurants, and the river setting adds a waterside dimension to the town.
