Peggy's Cove Day Trip from Halifax
Enroute to this seaside village pass, you travel along the winding coastal highway of the Lighthouse Route to the tiny fishing village of Peggy’s Cove, it is little wonder it has been an inspiration for artists and an irresistible lure for budding and seasoned adventurers for generation after generation. The colorful houses and fishing shacks perched atop the solid stone rocky outcrop that overlooks the restless waters of the Atlantic exhibit the wear and tear of the ocean and its punishing storms. Yet they endure, much like the small population of approximately 32 people who are year-round residents.”
Peggy’s Cove
Peggy's Cove is one of the most unique, captivating and exhilarating eye-openers in Nova Scotia. The quaint seaside hamlets of Shad Bay, Big Lake, East Dover and West Dover, to mention but a few, are also breathtaking. Known as Canada's most famous fishing village, Peggy's Cove, with its famous glacier rocks, offers an attraction that predates the stone age. As well, visitors can see the only post office in North America that is in a lighthouse. We stop here for approximately 30 minutes and if you're enjoying yourself, you can stay and enjoy a delicious fish chowder or perhaps a nice cold beer.
