Digby, home to world-famous Digby scallops is the perfect place for a cozy winter getaway. Explore the region before indulging in seafood, relaxing at the spa or sitting fireside. Here are a few ideas to get your plans started.

Scallops and seafood
A visit to the Digby area is not complete without a meal (or two) of delicious seafood. Be sure to try the scallops that the area is best known for, there is a dish on nearly every menu in town! Try the scallops St. Jacques or scallop linguine at Captain’s Cabin Restaurant. Indulge in a scallop Caesar salad, chowder and other seafood specialties at The Crow’s Nest.
For a meal with a view head to The Dockside or Fundy Restaurant and order the baked lobster and scallops or scallop wrap. Or, treat yourself to succulent scallops at Digby Pines’ renowned Churchill’s Restaurant.
Check out Bear River
This quaint “village on stilts” located along the Sissiboo River is a place like no other. Visiting Bear River is like going back in time. There are no traffic lights, no fast food restaurants, and no big box stores. The village is home to many artists who draw inspiration from the picturesque location. Browse Blue Mind Gallery to see their work and pick up a unique treasure and be sure to stop by Sissiboo Coffee Roaster for a cup of their delicious certified fair trade and organic coffee.
Lazy Bear Brewing
Just 10 minutes outside of Digby, drop in for a pint of craft beer as you take in the view overlooking Digby Gut. Play a game of cards as you sip a beer sampler and enjoy the atmosphere. Check ahead for the live music schedule and food offerings available.
Sissiboo River Retreat
Head out for winter glamping at Sissiboo River Retreat. Nestled among the trees along the Sissiboo River, these well appointed, cozy geodesic domes are the ideal wintertime getaway. The large deck overlooking the tidal river is ideal for watching the water rise and fall.
All domes are equipped with a barbecue and propane fire pit, while two of the three domes have hot tubs available. Families and pets are welcome.
