Unmissable Nova Scotia Experiences
Atlantic Canada- Nova Scotia
Nova Scotia
Canada’ s ocean playground
With its candy-striped lighthouses, salty fishing towns and towering red cliffs, this maritime province has plenty to explore. Its vibrant capital, Halifax is located on one of the world’ s largest natural harbours and is a hub for culture and entertainment with top restaurants, live music, theatre, museums, national historic sites and more. Other places to visit include the fishing village of Peggy’ s Cove, where you can snap your own shot of one of the world’ s most photographed lighthouses, or Lunenburg, a UNESCO World Heritage Site brimming with unique and colourful architecture from the 18th and 19th centuries. Experience the natural wonder of the world’ s highest tides in the Bay of Fundy. View unique coastal rock formations from hiking trails or walk the ocean floor. As far as scenic drives go, the jaw-dropping coastal views along Cape Breton Island’ s Cabot Trail are hard to beat, with picturesque villages and towns, artisan shops and trails at almost every turn. Nova Scotia also boasts an abundance of beautiful beaches along its 8,200 miles of coastline, particularly in the Northumberland Shore region. Here also is Antigonish, famed for hosting the oldest continuously running Highland Games outside of Scotland! Wherever your travels take you in Nova Scotia, be sure to tuck into the fresh local seafood and award-winning craft beer.
