Nova Scotia

The beauty of Nova Scotia


I have been lucky to visit Nova Scotia on five separate trips. And I've taken a photograph or three while there. Today, I thought I share a few (a very few) of those image.

Along the north shore on the Bay of Fundy you will find Margaretsville, a small community (population: 202) in Annapolis County

Continuing west along the Bay of Fundy shore and you'll come to Digby. A pretty town with an active harbour filled with fishing boats. And home to the best scallops you'll ever taste!

Cross the peninsular to Liverpool, then head east to Bridgewater. Then hang a right and head towards Lunenburg. Blue Rocks is about 6 minutes east (seaward) of Lunenburg. A quaint fishing village that has become very popular with artists and photographers.

Continue along Nova Scotia's Trunk 3 as it hugs the south shore past Saint Margaret's Bay until you reach Upper Tantallon and then turn right and head to Indian Harbour.

Continue eastward along the shore road and you arrive at Peggy's Cove, home of the World famous Peggy's Cove Lighthouse originally built in 1868. And while most tourists focus on the lighthouse, the harbour at Peggy's cove is certainly one of the most picturesque in the Maritimes.
