Brier Island is a great spot for the outdoor enthusiast. Two short ferry rides @ $7 CDN each for your return trips. After a whale watching excursion we did a little poking around. After a visit to the general store for gas & directions we set off to find Pond Cove beach. There is a small painted sign on a shed pointing the way down a dirt road. At some points it seems to be nothing more than a footpath. Finally, we reach the beach! It is helpful to know the tide times to be able to fully explore the beach at low tide. It is quite rocky at points but lovely sand beach beyond. Lots of interesting rocks, shells, & sea birds and we even spotted gray seals. Plenty of photographic opportunities to capture maritime life at it's best. Spend the day & enjoy exploring!

Step across the threshold and back in time at the W. Laurence Sweeney Fisheries Museum. Explore the Sweeney marine heritage through unique exhibits: a simulation of a traditional fishing wharf, complete with fishing, processing and ship repair sheds, wharf decks and even a coastal freighter.
A small but beautiful museum to learn about the history of Sweeney Fisheries. We were here for research, but this is a museum for everyone interested in the fish industry and fishing boats etc.

Ocean Explorations Zodiac Whale Cruises is the maritimes ORGINAL Zodiac ("ocean rafting") whale/seabird adventure! Celebrating 30+ seasons, founded by biologist Tom Goodwin, in 1986! "one of the best" (Lonely Planet) and the most recommended by accomodation providers in the area. Ask them "who is the BEST?" and go with THEM (ie. we'll see you then) We are the 'premium' option - using only ONE 'commercial grade' professional "zodiac" (type) boat - rugged commercial construction with twin engines is the professional standard. Biologist Tom Goodwin is one of the most 'famous' and qualified/experienced whale guides, IN THE WORLD. (see the world famous Triple Breach video online, link from the website, or google it). He is doing 95% of the tours himself now. It is the ONLY professional grade zodiacs in use in nova scotia and only biologist/owner (too). If this site doesn't allow quoting websites. google triple breach and/or Tom Goodwin (he's not the baseball player one! :-) )
Followed a couple of humpback whales around while one put on a tail slapping dance. Tom Goodwin was an excellent guide. Be sure to see balancing rock formation. The trail is less than a mile away ( short trail with some steps but an incredible view).

Situated on a beautiful 17-acre site overlooking Pubnico harbour, Le Village historique acadien de la Nouvelle-Écosse (Historical Acadian Village of Nova Scotia) invites you to step back in time and discover the heart, life and work of the Acadians in the early 1900s.
This was an excellent excursion! The guided tour was exceptional, and very informative. The people working on site were professional, yet very friendly and accomodating. They are very passionate about their village and anxious to sure with others. I would highly recommend this for anyone - school groups included!

Visited this beach several times while staying at the Cape View Motel and cottages. The beach is sandy and very clean. My family enjoyed the sandpipers and the waves. The beach has a slow slope making it wonderful for playing in the waves or enjoying your time with small children. There were very few people there during our visits. There was also a place you could rent surfboards as well as a snack bar, both near the road just off the beach. A very pleasant experience.
