Rockport is the site of early settlement in Westmorland County, New Brunswick on the Maringouin Peninsula which lies between Shepody Bay and Cumberland Basin and at the northern end of Chignecto Bay. All three bodies of water are extensions of the Bay of Fundy. Other former hamlets or villages on the peninsula include Upper and Lower Rockport, Slacks Cove, Pink Rock, Hard Ledge, and Johnson's Mills. Sandstone and gypsum quarrying was the mainstay of the economy.
