EASTERN CANADA & THE MARITIMES

Nova Scotia

Canada’s Ocean Playground
In Nova Scotia, you’re never more than 29 miles from the ocean, meaning you soon fall in pace with the rhythm of the sea. Salty air fills your lungs and breathes life into an afternoon of adventure. From fiddles to bagpipes, to golf, hiking, biking and (of course) an abundance of seafood; there are plenty of options for a memorable vacation.

Nova Scotia has over 160 lighthouses, and the most famous by far is the one at Peggy’s Cove. It’s the most photographed lighthouse in the world!

Cape Breton Island is one of the prettiest places in Canada. One of the best drives in the province, and some say in the entire country is the awe-inspiring Cabot Trail. Park the car and hike the Skyline Trail for incredible views of the island, search for whales from the shore, or take in the lively music scene at a local pub or impromptu kitchen party.

Nova Scotia

Iconic lighthouses, pastoral farmland and historic harbours — there’s so much to love about Nova Scotia. It’s a seafarer’s dream and an outdoor enthusiasts paradise with its own fascinating history and unique sights.
