From the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Old Town Lunenburg, with its colourful waterfront and narrow streets, to the inspiring views of the coast and its 40-plus lighthouses, the South Shore is much more than the home of Bluenose II and the must-photograph Peggy’s Cove Lighthouse and surrounding fishing village.

Whether it’s solitude you seek or adventure you crave, a visit to this region will satisfy. It can be luxurious oceanside accommodations or back-country camping; lobster freshly plucked from the sea or spirits aged aboard a tall ship; strolling the white sand beaches or hiking the canopied forest trails, or maybe even all the above.

Hear rum running stories on a boat tour of the historic Lunenburg Waterfront, complete with a stop at the world’s only floating rum warehouse. Haul a barrel back to shore for a taste of traditional Lunenburg flavours with award-winning Bluenose Rum. Meet the distillers behind the rum at Ironworks Distillery to discover how they partner with local farmers in crafting their spirits. Savour every subtle flavor as you’re guided in tasting techniques by the distillers. Strolling back through Lunenburg’s waterfront, step aboard Canada’s oldest Saltbank schooner for an exclusive sunset seafood dinner.
