On the shores of Lake Huron and less than 3 hours from Toronto, Sauble Beach boasts 7 kilometres of white sand and is Canada’s #1 rated freshwater beach.

Spend the day exploring the coastal city of Halifax, the largest urban area in the Maritimes. The city has cultural spots (art galleries, museums, music venues and theatre) in abundance, as well as superb dining and shopping throughout the city. And all of it just steps away from gorgeous beaches and spectacular natural areas.

The waterfront is undoubtedly the star attraction in the city and you’ll want to spend some time exploring this area. Take a harbour boat cruise or hop on the ferry to see the city from the water.

Leave behind the rugged landscape of Cape Breton Island and head to the province’s capital along the route known as the Marine Drive. You’ll pass through many scenic towns and villages that speak to Nova Scotia’s seafaring heritage. We recommend a stop for lunch at Sherbrooke Village, a restored 1860s community.

If time permits, visit Mabou and stop in for a drink at the Red Shoe Pub owned by the musical Rankin Family. 

After crossing the Northumberland Strait via ferry, make you way up Cape Breton Is-
land to the sleepy town of Baddeck, which will be your base for the next two nights, giving you ample time to explore the famous rugged coastline of Cape Breton.

Once in PEI, you’ll make your way to the capital city of Charlottetown. Enjoy strolling the historic centre of the city in the evening and be sure to enjoy some of the delicious dining on offer – whether it be in the form of famous PEI potatoes or some of the fresh bounty from the sea.

Head to Oak Island next where you'll be spending the night. Take a walk around the island and check out the Stone Wall on the southwest side, The Hatch on the northwest side, and the Stone Triangle on the southeast side! 

Start your East Coast journey on Nova Scotia’s south shore. A short drive from Halifax will take you to Peggy’s Cove, home of the province’s most famous lighthouse.
