Nova Scotia beyond its best-known landmarks

Peggy’s Cove is the familiar point of reference, but Stacy Ann Milford’s guide widens the map to 51 less-expected places across Nova Scotia. The entries span natural features and local history alongside art, paleontology, architecture, social justice, sports, popular culture and the paranormal, giving the book a deliberately varied sense of what counts as a destination. The sites also differ in accessibility and the effort involved, from places suitable for visits with small children to outings that call for more exertion. That range makes the guide useful both as an armchair tour of the province and as a starting point for planning trips beyond its iconic lighthouse.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Travellers seeking lesser-known Nova Scotia destinations.
  • Armchair explorers curious about the province’s varied places and histories.
  • Families and adventurous travellers comparing sites with different levels of accessibility and exertion.

Book overview

You may think you know Nova Scotia, home to Peggy's Cove, the most famous lighthouse in Canada. But while iconic lighthouses, kitchen parties, and lobster dinners will always have a special place in the hearts of Nova Scotians (and those who visit) there's so much more to experience in the province -- if you're willing to venture just a bit off the beaten path.

Beyond Peggy's Cove: 51 Unusual and Remarkable Sites in Nova Scotia introduces readers to some of these hidden gems. The sites are varied, featuring natural wonders as well as local history, art, paleontology, architecture, social justice, sports, popular culture, the paranormal, and more.

Some sites are completely accessible and ideal for those with small children, while others will appeal to adventurous travellers who don't mind some exertion for their travel rewards. All are ideal for the armchair explorer and anyone interested in learning more about Nova Scotia and its many magical places.
