Allains Creek is a picturesque stream situated near the village of Lequille, flowing into the Annapolis River just north of Annapolis Royal. This creek not only enhances the local landscape but also carries historical significance, as it is home to early Acadian dykes built in the 1600s for land reclamation in the marsh areas. These structures highlight the ingenuity of the Acadian people and their efforts to transform the environment for agriculture and habitation.
