The best way to get around the province is to have your own wheels — either rent a car or RV when you arrive or if you live in Canada, bring your own vehicle.
Nova Scotia is a destination that can be visited year-round, but for most of the activities on this list, you’ll want to visit during the warmer spring and summer months.
Let’s get started with the best things to do in Nova Scotia
#1 on this list is Tidal Bore Rafting
Two times a day, the tides in the Bay of Fundy rise and fall (between 3.5 meters (11ft) and 16 meters (53ft)).
When this massive influx of water meets the Shubenacadie River, the two collide to create rapids, waves, and a whole lot of swells.
With tidal bore rafting, you hop in a zodiac and fly over the waves!
2. Go Hiking
There are some great trails in the province where you can stretch your legs.
Nova Scotia is home to two National Parks, one National Park Reserve, and numerous Provincial and Historic Parks.
But, it’s popular for good reason!
3. Go Whale Watching
You’ll find excellent whale watching opportunities in the Bay of Fundy just outside of Digby on the Digby Neck (peninsula) and off of Cape Breton Island.
The whales start arriving in early spring and stay until fall, but typically, the humpbacks don’t show up until mid-June.
Both whale watching spots in Nova Scotia offer the chance to see humpback, fin, and minke whales.
4. Go Kayaking
Since Nova Scotia is surrounded almost completely by water, and home to numerous coves, bays, and islands, kayaking is one of the top activities here.
There are lots of places you can go paddling, but we recommend Blue Rocks, which is a community just outside of Lunenburg.
the best way to see the natural beauty of the area is to hop in a kayak.
5. Visit Vineyards
The Annapolis Valley is known for being wine country and with stunning views of the Bay of Fundy and 11 wineries to visit, it’s a place you’ll want to spend some time.
Don’t miss: Benjamin Bridge, Luckett, and Gaspereau vineyards.
6. Do Some Camping
Since this video is about a Canadian province, it’s no surprise that camping makes it on this list of activities in Nova Scotia.
7. Go Fishing
fishing is one of the best things to do in this maritime province.
Whether you’re into fly fishing or deep sea fishing, you’ll find it here.
Just outside of Inverness on Cape Breton Island is Margaree Forks, this is a top spot for fly fishing — 40-pound salmon run the Margaree River here.
8. Road tripping
Driving around the province is an activity in itself! The Cabot Trail on Cape Breton Island is one of the most scenic routes in North Amreica.
9. Take in a Festival
Whether you’re into music, food, crafts, art, history, or sports, there will be a fun festival that interests you here in Nova Scotia.
10. Follow One Of The Trails
A really cool thing to do in Nova Scotia that I haven’t seen anywhere else is to follow one of the food and drink trails around the province.
There are 3 trails:
Lobster Trail
Chowder Trail
Good Cheer Trail
This is a great way to learn about the best places that serve lobster, chowders and booze in the province.
Bonus! #11
Eat Seafood
It’s no wonder that lobster and chowder have their own trail for you to follow. Nova Scotia is home to some of the best seafood we’ve ever tried!
CONCLUSION
There you have it! Our list of the best things to see and do in Nova Scotia. We spent 2 weeks road tripping around the province, which left us wanting more.
For such a small place, there really is a lot to see and do, and there’s something for every type of traveller.
