Seaside Tourism
Association
The Seacoast Trail,
better know as Marine Drive is a playground for nature lovers – a
world of magnificent coastal beauty where unspoiled beaches and
tidal inlets beckon, and salt marshes teem with birds and
wildlife. The ruggedly diverse coastline is a world-class
destination for sea kayakers, and the seaside parks provide picnic
facilities and superb hiking trails at some of Nova Scotia’s
finest sand beaches. Inland, you’ll find a vast but accessible
wilderness whose myriad lakes and rivers are legendary with
anglers and paddlers.
