OUR HISTORY IS ALWAYS PRESENT in our culture and people.
In Nova Scotia, cultures combine to form a wonderful tapestry of experiences. Mi’kmaq, Acadian, African Nova Scotian, and Gaelic influences live strong to this day. That there are three World Heritage Sites (a total of five UNESCO sites) in the province speaks to a vibrant history that’s been wonderfully preserved. But more than that, you’ll live the richness of our heritage in every place you visit, from Old Town Lunenburg’s colourful streets, to the Gaelic communities of Cape Breton Island.

THE ONLY RISK IS MISSING OUT. Nova Scotia has the perfect activity to satisfy your taste for adventure.

GET OUT TO PLAY AROUND
or even play a round. Canada’s only authentic links golf course, Cabot Links, is just one reason that golfers flock to Nova Scotia’s fairways and greens. Its sister course, Cabot Cliffs, hugging Cape Breton’s dramatic coastline, debuted at #19 on Golf Digest’s list of the World’s 100 Greatest Golf Courses, and was named “Best New Course of the Year” for 2015. Joining Cabot Cliffs on this prestigious list is the Links at Brunello in Timberlea. But you certainly don’t have to be a golfer to experience the majesty of Nova Scotia’s landscape. Whether you drive or cycle the breathtaking Cabot Trail, or hike the awe-inspiring Skyline Trail, you’ll be surrounded by the vistas – and wildlife – that define a memorable day outside.

SOUTH SHORE
Bluenose II

Coastal charm, outdoor adventure, and sea-inspired artisans
F
rom the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Old Town Lunenburg, with its colourful waterfront and narrow streets, to the inspiring views of the coast and its 40-plus lighthouses, the South Shore is much more than the home of Bluenose II and the must-photograph Peggy’s Cove. It is a place where you can live in the moment, let your mind wander, and surprise yourself, perhaps by rowing a traditional dory near Cape Sable Island or throwing an axe with six-time World Logrolling Champion Darren Hudson at his Lumberjack AXEperience in Barrington.
Culinary delights abound here, and fresh and delicious seafood serves as the cornerstone of many delectable dining experiences, like the famed Shore Club Lobster Suppers in Hubbards, where more than a million lobster suppers have been served in the past 70 years. After a stroll along historic Dock Street in Shelburne, take a few steps up to the quaint Charlotte Lane Café, two-time winner of the Nova Scotia Best Small Restaurant Award. Tasty seafood is never far!
Train Station Bike & Bean, Tantallon This café and bike shop is located in the historic French Village Train Station, circa 1901, nestled on the Rum Runners Trail. Take a stroll or an easy pedal on the multi-use rails-to-trails route connecting charming coastal communities between Halifax and Lunenburg, while road cyclists en route to the Aspotogan Loop can fuel up with a meal or snack (see page 68).
Petite Rivière Vineyards, Petite Rivière Enjoy tastings, relax on the large terrace overlooking the vineyards, and be sure to take in an evening musical event —the acoustics of the stucco walls and ceilings are nearly perfect (see page 64).
Stand-Up Paddleboard, Liverpool Explore the historic Mersey River by paddleboard, kayak, or canoe. Liverpool Adventure Outfitters will help you paddle or pedal your way around the scenic South Shore. Rentals and other multi-sport tours available (see page 70).
Lobster Fondue, Barrington Passage When you’re in the Lobster Capital of Canada, don’t miss the lobster fondue at the Lobster Shack, winner of the 2014 Restaurant of the Year— Essence of Nova Scotia Award from Taste of Nova Scotia (see page 68).

Ironworks Distillery, Lunenburg Housed in an historic building in downtown Lunenburg, these spirits are crafted by hand using fresh, local ingredients. Don’t miss the Bluenose Rum and Pear eau de vie (see page 64).
Charlotte Lane Café, Shelburne novascotia.com
A stop at this award-winning café is a must while in Shelburne. Described as world cuisine blended with down-home hospitality, Chef Roland’s menu—from seafood and tasty pastas to crisp salads and delectable desserts—has been inspired by his world travels.

Lunenburg Waterfront
Hawk Beach, Cape Sable Island
Red wooden warehouses, brightly hued heritage homes, and crystal-blue water make the Lunenburg waterfront a jewel-toned tapestry. The best view is from the golf course on the other side of the harbour (see page 64).
This beach, with pristine white sand stretching seemingly forever toward a backdrop of sparkling blue surf, is one of the best places for bird watching. View Nova Scotia’s tallest lighthouse and a “drowned forest” from here, the most southerly point in Nova Scotia (see page 70).
Probably the most-photographed lighthouse in Canada, the Peggy’s Point Lighthouse is a must-capture for every visitor’s photo album. Just be careful on the wet rocks— they can be slippery! Nearby the William E. deGarthe Memorial Monument, a bas-relief sculpture chiseled from the granite of a 30-metre rock face, depicts the lives and legends of local fishermen. peggyscoveregion.com

You’re in Wine Country If your dream vacation includes road-tripping from one perfect boutique winery to another and chatting with passionate vintners about their art, then you’ve arrived! Make sure you take home a bottle of Tidal Bay, named for Nova Scotia’s first wine appellation. It brilliantly reflects the terroir, coastal breezes, and cooler climate of its birthplace. Our journey through wine country begins at Avondale Sky Winery in Newport Landing, which has the oldest vineyards in Nova Scotia and is housed in a former church (see page 113). In 2012 the church was loaded on a vessel and travelled 42 kilometres to Avondale Sky via the Bay of Fundy. The journey lasted over 24 hours, riding tides that fell and rose over 13 metres (43 feet). In 2015 Avondale Sky opened a new winery restaurant, D’Vine Morsels, which boasts perfect pairings and features a menu infused with seasonal, local ingredients. The winery store is open year-round.

NORTHUMBERLAND SHORE
Hector Heritage Quay, Pictou
131
Welcome to Nova Scotia’s beach destination.
W
ith more warm-water ocean beaches than anywhere else in Atlantic Canada, this shore is a beach bum’s paradise. Don your swimsuit and sunhat and head out to Melmerby, Pomquet, or Heather Beach, where the sparkling salt water averages more than 22°C (72° F) in the summer (see pages 141 & 142). These long, sandy provincial park beaches are supervised in July and August and offer boardwalks, change houses, washrooms, and interpretive information. This climate also lends itself well to the local wine industry, which is anchored by Jost Vineyards, the province’s oldest and largest winery (see page 138). Savour a glass along with some delicious local cheese, as you overlook Jost’s lush vineyards.
Northumberland Shore is a great place to get off the beaten path and find your own unexpected discovery. Enjoy the fragrant aroma of rolling lavender fields at Seafoam Lavender Farm (see page 139) before savouring a scoop of lavender ice cream, or stop at Lismore Sheep Farm (see page 140) to visit the animals and learn how their wool is spun into beautiful fabrics. Then, discover the magic of maple at Sugar Moon Farm (see page 140) with a behind-the-scenes look (and taste!) at how they make some of Nova Scotia’s finest maple syrup. Not surprisingly, fresh local lobster is a food of choice for the region and is available at restaurants throughout. The annual Pictou Lobster Carnival celebrates this succulent crustacean; it takes place at the end of the area’s lobster season, in July. Pair this local delicacy with an ice-cold ale from Uncle Leo’s Brewery in Lyon’s Brook or the Tatamagouche Brewing Company.
Tatamagouche Brewing Co.
Northumberland Shore
Abundant in history and culture, the Northumberland Shore has long been a welcoming place for visitors and immigrants alike. Explore the Town of Pictou, known as the “Birthplace of New Scotland.” Step aboard the legendary Ship Hector replica at the Hector Heritage Quay and imagine what it was like for the many Scottish immigrants who voyaged across the Atlantic Ocean (see page 139). Or, be amazed by displays of strength and agility at the Antigonish Highland Games from July 3 to 10.

Ceilidh Trail
eilidh” (kay-lee) is Gaelic for “gathering,” and a journey along the Ceilidh Trail (Route 19) by vehicle, or the Celtic Shores Coastal Trail by bike, offers an opportunity to experience the true meaning of the word. Both routes run parallel to the ocean and connect the communities and attractions along the way.
Meet the locals by stopping into the Celtic Music Interpretive Centre or The Red Shoe Pub for some live music and dancing (see pages 152 & 153), and enjoy a delicious meal at The Clove Hitch Bar & Bistro overlooking the ocean in Port Hood. Don’t forget to say “hello” to artist Ann Schroeder at her oceanfront studio and peruse her beautiful hand-painted quilts and silk scarves (see page 152) . A trip to Mabou wouldn’t be complete without a stop at the Mabou Farmers’ Market, where over 40 vendors offer up delicious food, beautiful jewellery and art, produce, and, of course, live music. For the golfer in your group, visit the renowned and scenic Cabot Links or the recently opened Cabot Cliffs, named the best new golf course in North America by Golf Digest, both in Inverness (see page 153). This region has long been a melting pot for Celtic, Acadian, and First Nations people. Nowhere is this more evident than at the state-of-the-art performance facility, Strathspey Place, where the music, dance, and folklore of these cultures are celebrated (see page 152).

Unexpected Discoveries Galloping Cows Fine Foods, Port Hood This culinary delight offers hand-crafted preserves that were featured at the Golden Globes, the Oscars, and the Toronto International Film Festival. Create your own gift basket of favourites, such as blueberryrhubarb jam and brandy cranberry marmalade (see page 152).
Delight your palate with a tour and tasting Glenora Distillery, Glenville Canada’s only distiller of single-malt whisky is cradled in a glen in the picturesque Mabou Highlands. Enjoy a tour of the distillery, followed by a taste of Glen Breton Rare whisky—the closest to authentic Scotch outside of Scotland. The Glenora Pub also has traditional ceilidhs twice a day, so don’t forget your dancing shoes! (see page 152)

Cabot Links and Cabot Cliffs golf courses at Cabot Links Resort, Inverness With golf greens sculpted around sand dunes and ocean views offered at each of the 18 holes, Cabot Links is the recipient of continuous accolades, including SCOREGolf’s ranking as the #1 course in Canada in 2015. Enjoy fine dining at Panorama or casual pub fare at the Cabot Links Public House. The newly opened Cabot Cliffs, nearby, was designed by two-time Masters champion Ben Crenshaw and Bill Coore and was named the Best New Course for 2015 by Golf Digest and debuted at #19 on its list of the World’s 100 Greatest Golf Courses. Referred to as the “Pebble Beach of Canada” by Links Magazine, the course, set along the picturesque rugged seaside cliffs of western Cape Breton, features an unusual configuration of six par-threes, six par-fours and six par-fives (see page 153).
various entry points between Port Hastings and Inverness This 92-kilometre multi-use trail winds through the communities of Judique, Port Hood, Mabou, and Inverness. Along the way, you’ll find active fishing harbours, beaches, exhilarating views, museums, restaurants, and accommodations. Include the trail in a multi-day cycling or trekking itinerary, or just stop for an hour or two to take in the natural beauty of this area. Bike rentals and shuttle service are available at Eagle Eye Outfitters in Inverness (see pages 153 & 206).

Hike, golf and dance the Highlands.
“I
have travelled the globe. I have seen the Canadian and American Rockies, the Andes and the Alps and the highlands of Scotland, but for simple beauty, Cape Breton outrivals them all.” —Alexander Graham Bell
The natural beauty of the highlands provides the perfect backdrop for outdoor activities such as golfing, kayaking, hiking, cycling, fishing, birdwatching, skiing, and snowmobiling. And don’t forget motorcycling! The Cabot Trail was featured in USA Today’s 10 Best Readers’ Choice for Best Motorcycle Trip in 2014.
The Cabot Trail’s natural beauty is only outdone by the area’s unique culture and unrivalled hospitality. You’ll feel like a local after attending a ceilidh and hearing some of Cape Breton’s finest musicians. Be sure to wear your dancing shoes, because you’ll be up learning how to step or square dance with new friends in no time. By the end of your stay, you may even know a few words of Gaelic. Plan to spend at least three days along the Cabot Trail, where you’ll discover how Nova Scotia, or “New Scotland,” got its name.

Cabot Trail
Golfers will never forget a day at the Stanley Thompson– designed Highlands Links, consistently ranked as one of the ten best golf courses in Canada. For a different perspective, take a guided kayak tour along the highlands of Northern Cape Breton. One of the most spectacular paddling destinations in North America, this remote and rugged coast offers imposing cliffs of ancient bedrock, which feature waterfalls, sea caves, and towering arches.
Some of the best hiking opportunities in Nova Scotia are found in the Cape Breton Highlands National Park, with 26 trails for all interests and abilities. For a truly spectacular sunset view, take part in the Skyline Sunset Hike. This guided hike leads you to the top of a mountain headland, overlooking the ocean as the sun slowly dips into the horizon. The beauty of the highlands inspires many artisans living around the Cabot Trail. Stop in to watch them create their art, or try one of the hands-on workshops such as Glass Blowing at Glass Artisans Studio & Gallery (see page 166).

Alexander Graham Bell Museum White Glove Tour
Not-To-Be-Missed Experiences There are many special hands-on activities along the nearly 300 kilometres of the worldfamous Cabot Trail. These suggestions will ensure that you miss nothing along the way. First flights, kites, and White Glove Tours Alexander Graham Bell National Historic Site, Baddeck Explore the life and work of this great teacher, scientist, and inventor. On display is a reproduction of Bell’s Silver Dart, the first plane ever to fly in Canada (c. 1909). Get a behind-the-scenes glimpse into Bell’s life by taking part in the White Glove Tour, or build and fly your own tetrahedral kite. Now in its second season Bells of Baddeck is a music-drama, portraying the story of inventor Alexander Graham Bell and his wife Mabel, who came to Cape Breton and fell in love with its people, music and Gaelic charm. Runs July 2–August 6 (see page 165).
Bite into local cuisine
Delve into la vie acadienne Les Trois Pignons, Chéticamp Chéticamp’s Acadian history and culture come alive through its world-famous hooked rugs and antiquities. The site also offers a genealogy resource centre, a library, and a full range of visitor information services (see page 165).

Outdoor Adventures The Cabot Trail is a nature-lover’s paradise, so get out and enjoy all it has to offer for explorers of every fitness level. Turn to page 167 for a complete listing of Cabot Trail’s outdoor adventures. Cape Breton Highlands National Park Explore dozens of hiking trails—there is one for every experience level—and keep an eye out for bald eagles and moose as you wind your way through the park on the Cabot Trail. Pack a picnic and take your time soaking in scenic vistas of sky meeting sea or stay a few days at one of the many campsites throughout the park. To make your outdoor stay easier, book an oTENTik or equipped camping site (see pages 167 & 168).
Salmon fishing on the Margaree River For generations, anglers have been lured to the Margaree’s tumbling rapids, deep pools, and still marshes. This popularity has attracted the TV show The New Fly Fisher, which
chose the Margaree River as its first Nova Scotia location. One of the fishing guides who can help visitors try their luck is at Margaree Riverview Inn, which is located in Margaree Forks within 10 minutes of some of the island’s best salmon pools (see pages 161 & 167).
Kayaking off Northern Cape Breton One of the most spectacular paddling destinations in North America, this remote and rugged coast offers magnificent cliffs, sea caves, unique rock formations, and the occasional whale passerby. The challenging nature of this environment is only suited for experienced paddlers, and a guided tour is recommended (see page 206 for a list of tour operators).
Go kayaking to evoke your inner artist in Baddeck Dipping your paddle alongside seals and seabirds, while surrounded by our coastal cliffs, can bring out the artist in anyone. North River Kayak Tours offers tours like The Songwriting Kayaker and The Painted Kayaker (see page 207).

Pods of Atlantic pilot whales spend their summers gorging on squid just off the shores of Pleasant Bay and Chéticamp. Book a Zodiac tour to get up close and personal with these highly social sea creatures, which are likely to be as intrigued by you as you are by them. Along with many species of whales, chances are you’ll see porpoises, seals, and seabirds while out on the open water. The best times to see whales are in the summer and fall months (see pages 204–205).

Hike into the sunset at Cape Breton Highlands National Park One of Destination Canada’s Signature Experiences, the guided Skyline Sunset Hike will lead you out to one of the best views in the province, on top of a mountain headland, overlooking the ocean at sunset. For more information call 902-224-4227 (Chéticamp) or 902-285-2535 (Ingonish Beach).
Puffin-Viewing Boat Tour These cute, stocky seabirds summer in large colonies on coastal cliffs and rocky offshore islands before making their way south in the fall. Due to the remoteness of their nesting areas, a boat tour to sites like the Bird Islands—Hertford and Ciboux—is the best way to view them. Donelda’s Bird Island Puffin Tours in Englishtown would be happy to welcome you aboard (see page 205).
Cycling the Cabot Trail
Hiking on Franey Mountain
Sail the Bras d’Or Lake Biosphere Reserve
Cabot Trail
While visiting the lakeside community of Baddeck, set sail with Amoeba Sailing Tours or Sailing CBI to explore the Bras d’Or Lake. This large inland sea is part fresh- and part saltwater, allowing it to sustain diverse ecosystems and wildlife, including many bald eagles (see page 204).
novascotia.com
Named one of the top ten cycling destinations in the world by Lonely Planet, the Cabot Trail is a must-do on every cycling enthusiast’s itinerary. The 300 kilometres of paved roads take you along rolling terrain and up steep hills, all with a view of the open ocean. There are a variety of tour packages available to help you make the most of this epic excursion. If you prefer an independent adventure, head to Vélo Max Cycling in Chéticamp to rent a bike and pick up cycling supplies before hitting the hills. Visit cyclenovascotia.ca to download route maps and GPS coordinates. See pages 206–207 for a list of tour operators.

Discover the Island’s inland sea.
S
tunning scenery is a fact of life in Nova Scotia, and that is especially true in the Bras d’Or Lake region. Literally translated as “Arm of Gold,” the name surely was inspired by the sunsets over Canada’s only inland sea. With a complex sequence of barrier beaches, rocky headlands, barachois ponds, and wetlands, it is no surprise that the area is a designated UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Here, you can experience the heritage of some of the founding cultures of Nova Scotia. Discover what life was like 10,000 years ago for the Mi’kmaq while hearing stories and music and sharing a traditional feast during an Eskasoni Cultural Journey. Learn about the lives of early Scottish settlers at the Highland Village Museum, a 43-acre living history museum where costumed interpreters greet you in Gaelic (see page 180).
Eileanan Brèagha Vineyards Eileanan Brèagha Vineyards is the first and only estate winery on Cape Breton Island. The vineyard’s name, pronounced AY-len-an BREE-ah, means “beautiful islands” in Gaelic, and describes the view from its location perched upon Marble Mountain overlooking the Bras d’Or Lake. Stop in to sample and purchase some wine, or ask for a glass at local restaurants (see page 180).
Eskasoni Cultural Journeys, Eskasoni Experience authentic Mi’kmaw culture by sharing a traditional feast, hearing stories and music, or learning through participation in the traditional fishing practices of the Mi’kmaq. eskasoniculturaljourneys.ca

Then, pick up some picnic supplies and visit the St. Peter’s Canal National Historic Site (see page 180), where you will learn how the canal has provided a link between the Atlantic Ocean and the Bras d’Or Lake for over 140 years.

Living history and a lively port city
T
he Fleur-de-lis Trail begins at the Canso Causeway and winds its way along the southeastern part of Cape Breton Island, where Acadian fishing villages dot the coast, hugged by untouched wilderness.
Music is a vital part of life in this region and the sounds of fiddles, pipes, and voices have long filled the air with sweet harmonious sounds. Feel the excitement at the award-winning Celtic Colours International Festival, a nine-day festival that brings the Island alive with music, energy, and excitement, at Glace Bay’s Savoy Theatre, a theatre built nearly a century ago to meet the specifications of Victorian show houses, and at the Louisbourg Playhouse, a theatre-in-the-round performance venue inspired by London’s 1599 Globe Theatre (see page 189). At the port city of Sydney, enjoy a stroll along the waterfront boardwalk and check out the downtown shops along Charlotte Street. Be sure not to miss the collection of locally made one-of-a-kind masterpieces at the Cape Breton Centre for Craft and Design (see page 190).
Celtic Colours International Festival
Unexpected Discoveries LeNoir Forge Museum, Arichat Situated on the historic Arichat waterfront, this 18th-century French blacksmith shop features a working forge, demonstrations, and a gift shop. For the history buff, the site also includes a community archive, geneaology centre, and a boat barn (see page 189).
Two Rivers Wildlife Park, Huntington Get up close and personal with over 50 native and non-native species of wildlife like lynx and black bear at this family-friendly park and wilderness area.

Fleur-de-lis / Marconi / Sydney Area
From the Fleur-de-lis Trail, continue onto the Marconi Trail, where a storied past will immerse you in its rich history. Enter the largest reconstructed fortified town in North America, the 18th-century French Fortress of Louisbourg National Historic Site, where costumed interpreters offer you a peek into their personas’ daily lives (see page 189). Descend into a coal mine with a retired coal miner as your guide at the Miners’ Museum in Glace Bay (see page 189). At the Marconi National Historic Site, learn how the first wireless message transmitted across the Atlantic led to today’s network of global communications (see page 189).
When on the Sydney Waterfront, you can’t miss the world’s largest fiddle, standing 18 metres (60 feet) tall. Built in recognition of Cape Breton’s musical talent and Celtic roots, this tribute makes a great photo opportunity. Membertou Heritage Park (see page 190)

Take a ghost tour … if you dare
Lighthouse and Old Town Trails, Louisbourg Every footstep tells a story on these historic trails, which offer impressive views of the Fortress of Louisbourg and its rugged coast. The 2-kilometre Lighthouse Trail starts at the Louisbourg Lighthouse and winds through forests and wetlands, along the coast where soldiers once stood guard protecting Louisbourg Harbour. The nearby 2.25-kilometre Old Town Trail lies just outside the fortress walls, with interpretive panels telling the story of the people who once lived and worked there. The trail begins at the Stella Maris Cemetery and ends near the site of the original fortified town (see page 191).

Memory Lane Heritage Village
novascotia.com
The Eastern Shore contains one of the few remaining unspoiled and untouched archipelagoes in North America. The group of over 100 wild islands that skirt the Eastern Shore between Clam Harbour and Mushaboom were featured in the December 2015 edition of Canadian Geographic, as they have remained largely untouched since the last ice age, making them both historically and ecologically significant. Stop by Murphy’s Camping on the Ocean in Murphy Cove, for a boat tour of this pristine, rugged environment of white-sand beaches, dramatic headlands and idyllic sheltered coves that locals have been enjoying for centuries. 100wildislands.ca

Surfing at Lawrencetown Beach
Beachcombing and birding at Martinique Beach Search for beach glass and sand dollars on Nova Scotia’s longest beach, a white-sand crescent that stretches flat and wide for five kilometres, with seabirds soaring on the ocean breezes above the dunes. This is also a protected area for the endangered Piping Plover (see page 202).
Swimming at Clam Harbour Beach Provincial Park The smooth sand and warm tidal stream invite kids of all ages to splash and swim for hours. The rocky coast at the edge of the beach can be explored by way of a nature trail, which runs along other smaller sandy beaches. The site also offers an interpretive display, washroom and changeroom facilities, and a picnic area (see page 202).
