Nova Scotia Boating Guide

Page 41

The stunning, almost overwhelming natural beauty of Cape Breton Island just might take your breath away. This is a place where incredible landscape, Celtic culture, and outdoor adventure all cross paths – at a ceilidh party, naturally. Separated from the mainland of Nova Scotia by a short causeway and locks, it’s no surprise that Cape Breton is often named as one of the top island destinations in the world. This is a magical place where traditional Gaelic culture is on display in towns, villages, and museums. Where the Cabot Trail carves a gentle path along cliffs, past beaches, and through pristine forest. Where hiking, sailing, cycling, golfing, and simple contemplative wandering create memories that last a lifetime. Nestled in the middle of Cape Breton, one of the island’s best-kept secrets, lies a 3,500 square kilometre inland sea. The Bras d’Or

Where mountainous highlands meet inland sea, you will find yourself.

Lakes are a recreational boating destination unlike any other. As a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, there is an exciting focus on conservation, sustainable development, research and education. Go where few modern explorers have gone before. And where centuries of native and Scottish explorers have made their home.
