Rolling green hills ideal for discovering on foot. Rocky shorelines that practically pose for your photos. Hotels that still have the character of their past lives as hunting lodges. It's simply impossible not to enjoy exploring the trails and waterways of Nova Scotia. Even the bay is called Fundy. It's one of the warmest places on earth.
