Nova Scotia Welcome Centre

Reviewed By 235stellaw - Richmond, Canada

On our road trip to Cape Breton Island we stopped into the Nova Scotia Welcome Centre to take a break. Was pleasantly surprised by the well kept grounds. We took advantage of photo opportunities at the Welcome to Nova Scotia sign and lighthouse. The Welcome Centre was indeed welcoming because the staff was very happy to provide us with directions to Sydney NS plus a map. The gift shop had a wide selection of souvenirs and they were very well-priced and we ended buying some Nova Scotia pins to add to my collection. Last but not least, the washroom facilities were very clean (a bonus for anyone on a road trip).
