Best places: Beaches in Nova Scotia

👍👍 Beautiful beach!!! Parking is limited, but I’d you go early it isn’t a problem. We went because of all the pictures of the beautiful blue green waters but in a cloudy foggy morning the ocean is a little less colourful then expected. But exploring and beaches and relaxing on the white sand was wort...

👍👍 My favourite beach in the province. Nice long beach with good wave and good breeze that no mosquito or horsefly bother you at all. Sunset at the beach is absolutely gorgeous. The beach is certainly rocky when you first walk down from the boardwalk, but if you walk further down near the water during...

👍👍 right off the highway. good parking. beautiful scenery. Waterfall at one end.

👍👍 Amazing beach. Water was warm enough in mid August. Enjoyed the waves and empty beach around 10:30am. When we left at 1pm it got crowded. Barely any deer flies at this time of the year.

👍👍 Had a great day here today! The sand is lovely and the water was quite refreshing. The kids loved diving in the waves and it was nice to have a beach that has lifeguards on duty. I highly recommend this beach. When we were leaving it was starting to get busy, so if possible get out there mid mornin...

👍 This beach is not bad but when i was about to get into the water, there's like a lot of rocks that kinda burned my feet on the bottom but when i got into the water, the water feels nice at times but the water is cold at times as well. This beach is kinda worth it.

👍👍 Beautiful! Got there with the tide out and amazing huge beach, sand was so fine and soft on the feet. Unbelievable how much beach was exposed with the tide out. A must see and check out nearby Smugglers Cove

👍 Beautiful views. Great place to go for a walk on the beach. If people would pick up after their dogs, it would be perfect!

👍👍 This place is great! The beach is sandy and expansive, dog friendly and the water's not too choppy. If you want a good walk, the beach extends a fair ways, changing to rocky and then changing back to sandy, with plenty of seashells to spot. The sea spray is refreshing and there's only a few patche...

👍 Great place! Nice sand shallow waters perfect for kids. I beautiful view. Bathroom on the spot. Little shop and restaurant where you can buy hot dogs. Parking was 8$ per vehicle.

👍👍 I grew up here, learn to swim here, my Dad was the caretaker for the family in the late 60's and 70's before we moved away! So we had the cottage and island to ourselves during summer break.

👍👍 This is a great beach. Awesome vista, lotsa shale rocks and great expanses. My advice: bring water, mud shoes, drinks and a shelter if sun is blazing as it was when we were there. Note that the beach is rocky and the “sand” is shale sand. This is a geologically important place (in the world) so do a...

👍👍 An autumn stroll on this beach is good for the soul. Easy access, parking, port o potty, beautiful white sand, interesting sand formation to the far west of the beach. On this day, we had the the beach to ourselves. It's a lengthy stretch to walk on, very quiet. Lots of sea treasures to be found. Ve...

😐 Really nice Beach and a look off of the Sydney Harbor. There's a few people swimming when we went there. Decent amount of parking as well. But it's just a public beach there's no bathrooms restrooms or change rooms. But other than that very nice Beach

👍👍 Super nice beach. You can walk far away and still reach the ground. My toddler had a great time there. We will definitely go again

👍👍 Cute little hidden gem ! Water was extra cold today but was told by a few of the locals that it had been quite warm usually lately.
