Dear friends,
I will have one week in July which I would like to spend on the east side of Canada,
Initially I thought of Nova Scotia.
Before I dive into the books, I would appreciate any recommendations regarding activities, places, organized unique activities.
I am open to everything, for example if you can recommend of an agency that takes you to the north side of Canada
(can you see the Auaura from somewhere there?) this would be a valuable infommaiton.
Also organized canoo/ Kayak/ hiking/ whale watching trips. Other ideas?
Any info will be welcome.
With warm regards,
Meir

Nova Scotia is a great idea and a beautiful place, especially in the summer. Most of Nova Scotia tourism is oriented around the coast and beaches. There is one major city, Halifax, which is worth seeing. Cape Breton is the most famous region, but in my opinion overrated. I would suggest a loop through the southern half of the province and Halifax. Whale watching is great from Digby/Digby Neck. One place of note that has kayaking, hiking, and is within day-trip distance of whale watching is Trout Point Lodge. It's adjacent to the Tobeatic Wilderness Area, which is part of a UNESCO World Biosphere Preserve. You should also go up the 1 or HWY 101 and see Wolfville, Bay of Fundy, and Annapolis Royale. In Halifax, check out Prince George Hotel and Halliburton House.

You really should dive into some books or websites. You won't see the north side of Canada from Nova Scotia or the Aurora. Try this website here
