We’re reflecting on some of the most memorable travel moments captured across Nova Scotia in 2024 as the year draws to a close. From sunny beach days to spectacular fall colours, Nova Scotia truly showcased its beauty this year. We hope these scenes will inspire you to visit Nova Scotia in 2025 and discover Your Ocean Playground for yourself!
Whether you’re visiting in January, April, August, or October, Nova Scotia is open for unforgettable experiences and activities all-year round. Discover every season’s unique personality and offerings.
When the summer heat gives way to crisp, refreshing days and the scenery turns from greens to golds and vibrant reds, a season of even more things to do in Nova Scotia begins. While swimming in our warm ocean and lake beaches may be over for another year, there are endless opportunities to get outside and explore all the incredible family-friendly activities fall brings.
Get outdoors to experience incredible hiking (and biking on some trails), soak in scenic views, and check out the fall colours across Nova Scotia this autumn.
Autumn is a magical time in Cumberland County, Nova Scotia.
Harvest season in Nova Scotia is a favourite time of year, especially at one of our 20+ wineries. Vineyards are seemingly bursting with grapes on the vines, waiting to be picked any day. Colourful fall foliage provides the perfect backdrop for sipping Tidal Bay on cozy patios. Cool, crisp sweater weather is ideal for walks in the vineyard, or an outdoor lunch paired with a glass of wine.
Here in Nova Scotia, you don’t have to venture far to experience a kaleidoscope of fall colours. From wooded hiking trails and urban parks to rural communities, our province boasts some of the best leaf watching in North America. Read on to discover all the best spots to experience the changing leaves this year.
For the past three years, we’ve taken our kids (now aged 13, seven, and five) to Ingonish for a long weekend in the fall. Cape Breton as a whole is amazing, and a few weeks ago we drove all the way around, but we’re already planning next year’s Ingonish break because there’s so much to see and do squeezed into a relatively small geographical area.
Summer temperatures may have faded away until next year but there is plenty of time for a memorable stay at one of Nova Scotia’s resorts. Most are open year-round and offer incredible oceanside dining, relaxing hot tubs, spas and pools, cozy guest rooms and memorable beach walks and sunsets.
