Big Wooden Playground, Nova Scotia

Park

👍👍 What a lovely playground and rest spot with a washroom. When driving along the long Valley road.

4.90 (63 reviews) (~57.3 km from centre)

Victoria Park

Park

Bucolic, 1000-acre park featuring an extensive trail system, picnic areas & waterfalls.

4.80 (2.1K reviews) (~54.84 km from centre)

Burntcoat Head Park

Park

👍👍 We got to see this place at low tide and then high tide. Since it's the Bay of Fundy - tides are of utmost importance. You need to check and see the tide timings. Parking is free and ample so no cost involved. There is a public washroom there which is clean and easily accessible and visible. They al...

Taylor Head Provincial Park

Park

👍👍 Great hiking trails here. We made the mistake of hiking after rain the day before, so a little slippery on the Spry trail. Beach is fantastic with clear turquoise water, though sure to make the boys play hide and seek.

Burntcoat Head Park Association

Park

👍👍 Be prepared for an incredible journey amongst the overhanging cliffs and ocean floor. Don't forget to pack your least favorite shoes because the red sand and mud will stain them. Pack your sunscreen because you will get burnt especially at mid day on this beach as there isn't a lot of areas to hide...

Kings Castle Provincial Park

Park

👍👍 A great, well-maintained playground and park with access to a beach, plenty of picnic tables, a canteen with cold treats, and plenty of play structures for kids of ALL ages. I felt very safe having my kids run around!

4.80 (255 reviews) (~48.07 km from centre)

Musquodoboit Trailway trailhead

Park

👍 Great spot for beginner to experienced hikers. Lots of benches along the main drag and parking is decent. My only issue was the lack of garbage cans for dog poop or snack wrappers. There are signs asking you to take it home with you but the trail is littered with poop bags.

4.80 (73 reviews) (~97.49 km from centre)

Clam Harbour Beach Provincial Park

Park

👍👍 I had the pleasure of visiting Clam Harbour Provincial Park/Beach, and I must say, it was an absolutely wonderful experience. This gem on the eastern shore of Nova Scotia ranks among the best beaches in the province, and for good reason. The pristine shoreline, with its soft sands and picturesque v...

Cape George Lighthouse

Park

👍👍 This spot is beautiful. Also there was almost no one there so we were able to really enjoy the beauty of the site.

4.70 (353 reviews) (~66.23 km from centre)

Trenton Park

Park

👍👍 Park is beautiful. It always was a nice park, but now that it's been updated it's really really nice. Splash park with shaded sitting areas. Pool. Bathrooms and changing rooms and very clean and well kept. Park equipment is all new. Alot of things for the kids to do. Walking trail is beautiful. Ther...

Civic Square

Park

👍👍 It's like skating in a snow globe. :) Free skate rentals at the library too.

4.70 (262 reviews) (~55.03 km from centre)

Arisaig Provincial Park

Park

👍👍 Beautiful park with nice walking trails and stunning views! The trails themselves are quite short, but if you head down to the beach it's a gorgeous walk. There is a waterfall, slate rocks, fossils and a one of a kind sunset.

4.70 (206 reviews) (~41.55 km from centre)

Wentworth Provincial Park

Park

👍👍 Nice surprise. Just happened upon this clean and well maintained park on my road trip home from visiting Cape Breton. Had the chance to run my dog off leash without worry. Enjoyed our time here

4.70 (148 reviews) (~70.21 km from centre)

Port Hood Station Provincial Park

4.70 (101 reviews) (~98.13 km from centre)

Gulf Shore Provincial Park

Park

👍👍 Beautiful beach. Water was warm. Picnic area and bathrooms. Everytime I’ve been it’s never been to crowded.

4.70 (96 reviews) (~81.54 km from centre)

Port Hood Beach

Park

👍👍 Parking is a bit of a nightmare when it's busy, but we loved the way it's set up, nice sand instead of rocks and clean. Would pick as one of the top beaches and go as much as possible.

4.70 (79 reviews) (~98.56 km from centre)

Salsman Provincial Park

Park

👍👍 Cute little spot to stop in for a picnic. Part of the area was blocked off for construction but we were still able to park near the road.

4.70 (74 reviews) (~79.89 km from centre)

Nelson Memorial Park

Park

👍👍 Fabulous park. We really enjoy our time here. The day-use park is just outside of Tatamagouche on Tatamagouche Bay. We used the park facilities at one of their great picnic shelters with barbecue. There were many families there with kids at the playground. One of the things that surprised us the mo...

Port Shoreham Beach Provincial Park

Park

👍👍 Wonderful seaside beach. Beware, though, this is not the beach to take off your shoes and stroll from end to end. It is very rocky. The sand is darker and smooth, but you need to move the rocks a little to get a nice place for your towel. The scenery is beautiful and peaceful. The change rooms and b...

Beach Grove Nature Trails

Park

👍👍 This is my go to place to walk! Easy to walk on paths. Trees, water, benches, and just long enough! My husband and I had our wedding photos taken there 32 years ago!
