05 Head out to Peggy's Cove
Of the more than 160 historic buildings that look out into the sea, Peggy's Point Lighthouse on Nova Scotia's Bluenose Coast has been charming the locals since its construction in 1915. This well-photographed lighthouse sits an hour outside the city in Peggy's Cove, a charming fishing village on the South Shore of the area. Nearby points of interest include the Coastal Heritage Trail, where travelers can take a self-guided tour of the coastal region through several sites, including S.S. Atlantic Heritage Park, Pioneer Cemetery, Bay LookOut Park, Cleveland Beach Provincial Park, and Blandford Whaling Station.
