Nova Scotia’s South Shore

We’re that special stretch along Canada’s Ocean Playground where every turn in the road leads to a new adventure.

Where rugged Atlantic shores lead to serene seas. Where history abounds and whispers your name. Where days of forested hikes give way to campfire nights. Where the doors in quaint village shops open to world class artisans, and local food & drink perfectly pair with the memories you make.

Where discovery and rediscovery will lead you back again and again.

Nova Scotia’s South Shore – where good times are a SHORE thing! View our accommodations availability calendar to find the perfect place to stay.
