Contributed by kayakadvocate, an ePodunk user. March 30, 2009 Pluses: A beautiful, quiet, scenic spot that has the highest tides on earth at its doorstep. This picturesque fishing village is one of the oldest villages in nova Scotia, founded by Champlain in 1606. You can still view the old Acadian Dyke's here. On one side of the village Cape d'Or rises, where yo will find the amazing Dory Rips, on the other side the highest cliffs in Nova Scotia rise to form Cape Chignecto with some of the finest hiking in Canada. Great fresh seafood can be found in the village.
Its a special place to escape to and immerse yourself in the culture of a authentic Maritime fishing village. Minuses: a small village so not a lot of people, no city nightlife - or maybe those are also pluses! A good place to... relax, find yourself, hike, sea kayak, beach-comb, take awesome photos, indulge in fantastic food, star gaze, explore Situated on the upper Bay of Fundy, 3 hours from Halifax.
