1 Eastern Shore Kayaking on the Eastern Shore

2 195 An outdoor enthusiast s paradise Stretching from the edges of the Halifax area to the Causeway, Nova Scotia s Eastern Shore is a place where historically themed attractions, pristine wilderness, comforting cuisine, and a natural paradise come together to create a oneof-a-kind travel experience.

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 Memory Lane Heritage Village Step into Nova Scotia s past at one of the region s living-history museums the enduring, authentic late- 1800s setting of Sherbrooke Village, or Memory Lane Heritage Village s depic tion of the province s rural industries in the 1940s.
