Cape Breton Island: Heavy rainfall has caused flooding and road damage. Highways 104 and 105, Route 19 and the Cabot Trail remain open. Avoid non-essential travel in affected areas and check 511 Nova Scotia before travelling.
Visit the Ballantyne’s Cove Tuna Interpretive Centre to learn more about tuna. The centre’s interpretive panels explore the life cycle of tuna and the history of tuna fishing. The centre also provides a video for viewing, as well as a life-size tuna model. Before leaving, be sure to check out the 19th century Fresnel Lamp, a replica of the lamp once belonging to Cape George Point Lighthouse.
