There's a place where a new discovery awaits around every corner and on every hilltop. Where history is still alive and fresh local food isn't a fad, but a way of life, and where the friendliest people you'll ever meet give you a warm welcome. Experience the rugged coastlines crashing against the ocean. You'll find it on the Nova Scotia Peninsula!
With a surface area 1.5 times the size of the Netherlands, Nova Scotia boasts diverse and impressive natural landscapes: moose-dominated parks, the steep cliffs of Cape Breton, the enormous tidal range in the Bay of Fundy (at 16 meters, the world's highest!), expansive beaches, and vibrant fishing villages. The nutrient-rich coastal waters are a favorite of whales, which can sometimes be spotted swimming off the shore.
On the website Nova Scotia Tourism introduces you to the diverse regions and natural parks.
