Point Wolfe is a former Canadian village in Albert County, New Brunswick.

It was situated near the village of Alma, at the mouth of the Point Wolfe River, in Chignecto Bay.

As a farming village, Point Wolfe was home to about 72 families in 1866, and was populated with 150 people in 1871.

The village was expropriated to make way for the creation of Fundy National Park, which it now serves as part of.[1]
