Antigonish

Pjila’si. Weltasualuleg. Fáilte. Bienvenue. Welcome… to the beautiful Northumberland Shore of Nova Scotia. This region is the ancestral home of the Mi’kma’ki First Nations people, the traditional knowledge keepers, and is also rich in the history and traditions of Gaelic, Acadian and African Nova Scotians. Evidence of the love of all of these traditions beats strongly in the hearts of all who call this area home, and is sure to capture the love and attention of all who take in its beauty.

Visitors cannot help but be in awe of the beauty and character of the region. Dramatic cliffs and headlands punctuate hundreds of miles of pristine coastlines and the crystal-clear blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean. A leisurely stroll along the seashore collecting sea glass and sand dollars will still the soul and awaken the senses to promises whispered on the gentle breezes.

A virtual vista of greens and browns and yellows of our forests, marshes,

and fields – originally home to indigenous people thousands of years ago – are breathtaking to behold. Combined with the riotous colour of flora and fauna that populate this area, visitors are sure to return here season after season to drink in the colour and charm that Mother Nature displays in Antigonish.

No matter where you travel in the areas of the Northumberland Shore, visitors are afforded an opportunity to experience the arts and culture that resonate in the hearts and homes of our people and revel in natural beauty – whether it is the pounding waves of the coastline that beat like the ancient drums of our First Nations people, or the soothing sounds of water gently moving in our rivers and lakes, or the stirring music heard from Mother Nature and local musicians.

Antigonish on Nova Scotia’s Northumberland Shore will call you back again, and again, and again.

ANTIGONISH TOWN AND COUNTY

Our Communities

Small town charm and an authentic East Coast lifestyle is what you will experience in Antigonish. Experience our serene coast along the shores of Antigonish by following the Sunrise Trail into Arisaig and around Cape George. This trail is a favourite for cyclists looking for a challenge, motorcycle enthusiasts, and for those who love to roll the windows down and smell the fresh salt air. While on this peaceful and relaxing drive, stop and visit the many wharves, lighthouses, look-offs, beaches, hiking trails, and other local treasures along the way. This coastal gem is among the province’s most scenic drives offering views that will capture your heart. Once you finish the blissful drive and it is adventure you are now seeking, head to The Keppoch and enjoy the multi-use trail system for year-round fun. If local fare is what you’re after, there are many options for you to try. Whether it’s taking in the view at Arisaig while enjoying a lobster roll, a casual drink on a patio, a seafood spread, or if fine dining is more your scene, Antigonish has it all.
