Description: One of Nova Scotia’s most iconic and picturesque beaches, Crescent Beach is located in Lockeport on the South Shore of Shelburne County. It gained fame when it appeared on the 1954 $50 Canadian bill. Stretching over a kilometer, the soft white sand and turquoise waters make it perfect for beachcombing, swimming, and relaxing. During the summer, the beach is home to piping plovers, a small and endangered shorebird species that nests along the sand. There are three public access points to Crescent Beach in Lockeport. An accessible ramp is located at the Visitor Beach Centre, a steeper ramp is at the opposite end, and stair access is available midway. At one end of the beach, you’ll find the Crescent Beach Centre — a visitor hub offering washrooms, showers, change rooms, free Wi-Fi, and interpretive displays about the town’s heritage and marine life. For enhanced access, especially for guests with mobility needs, there’s a fully accessible beach entrance and a beach-mobility wheelchair available upon request.

The trail is constructed across a rugged granite ridge landscape and, as such, offers a demanding challenge. The multiple loops of the trail allow for various routes of increasing challenge and can range from 1 hour to a full day to navigate. Crowbar Lake Hiking Trails is accessed from a sole trailhead with a parking lot that is located at 1800 Myra Road in Porter’s Lake. The Crowbar Lake Hiking Trails are comprised of the following trails: The Pond: 800 meters Porters Lake Loop: 2.2 km Spriggs Brook Trail (to bridge and back): 5.8 km Spriggs Brook Trail (to West Lake junction and back): 9.2 km West Lake Loop: 13.5 km Salmon River Loop + Lookoff Loop: 18 km Porters Lake Loop From the trail head at Myra Road, the trail climbs gradually through mixed forest and skirts a beautiful small lake, with boardwalk and a bench at about 400m. From here, hikers can complete the 2.2 km Porters Lake Loop, which begins and ends at the lake. Views from the top of this loop reveal Porters Lake and its eastern slopes. Part of the forest here and elsewhere along the trial system bear dramatic evidence of Hurricane Juan. Spriggs Brook Trail From the crest of Porters Lake Loop, hikers may continue west, 1.5 km, to the bridge at Spriggs Brook, and another 1 km to Granite Lake. The route offers views of distant Granite Lake and Stillwater sections of Spriggs Brook, and passes through older, mixed pine forest showing scars of long-ago forest fires. West Lake Loop For the more adventurous, the trail continues past Granite Lake to the West Lake Loop. The fist view of West Lake is about 450m west of Granite Lake, from the top of a large, barren hill-top. From this hill, hikers can travel about 4 km around the West Lake Loop, either clockwise or counter-clockwise. This loop offers intimate views of the lake and more expansive views from high granite exposures. Salmon River Loop The most ambitious route extends West Lake Loop, westward, to Salmon River and Crowbar Lake. Watch for trail junctions at the northwest and southwest ends of West Lake Loop. Traveling counter-clockwise, hikers will climb a large hill northwest of West Lake, onto a jack pine barren. The barren reveals an expansive landscape of wilderness forest and lakes, looking northwest, towards crowbar and Salmon River Long Lakes. The trail then descends to Crowbar Lake through older spruce-hemlock forest. At Crowbar Lake, the trail follows the scenic salmon River, downstream, and then along Otter Lake. Once past Otter Lake, the trail swings back towards West Lake, with a choice of two routes. The longer route offers additional, high viewpoints. Once back at the junction with the West Lake Loop, don’t miss the exquisite “Crows Nest” viewpoint off a granite knob right above that junction. Please note This is a wilderness trail and there are no amenities along the trail or at the trailhead. Cell phone coverage is spotty depending on the terrain and service provider. Leave only footprints, take only photos and memories. Crowbar Lake Hiking Trails is not maintained during the winter months; expect icy conditions. Some hikers, anglers and hunters have traditionally accessed the Salmon River Trail and Look-off Loop near Otter Lake from River Drive in Lake Echo. River Drive is a private road, not maintained, and open only to local traffic. There is no trailhead there; please use the trailhead on Myra Road.

Explore the history of the Hector Quay replica ship or relax on one of the many nearby warm water beaches. In the evening back at the inn, feel like you are stepping back in time with original features perfectly maintained in this cira 1870 house. Made of brick and sandstone the home boasts large windows and rooms, original wide plank hardwood floors, high ceilings and intricate crown moldings mixed with modern amenities. The property was purchased in 1995 by David and Douglas DesBarres. In 1997 they extensively renovated the building to repurpose the property into a four star inn. The inn offers 8 spacious air conditioned rooms (king or queen bed) with 4 piece bath, CBTV, phone, wifi and fridge. Three of these rooms also include kitchenettes. Two of the queen rooms are wheelchair accessible and barrier-free. Parking is free and on site. The property is easy walking distance to shops, restaurants and a beautiful walking trail alongside the harbour. Business services are available including meeting and conference space. History of the Pictou Customs House The Pictou Customs House was built for the federal government circa 1873 according to designs by Halifax architects Stirling and Dewar. Located on what was originally a spit of land in close proximity to the major wharves, the building was built to house the offices of the Customs and Immigration branch of the federal government. The Second Empire structure features a double façade looking out to the harbour and in to the town. The building also had a tower overlooking the waterfront. The massive building was a forceful statement made by the federal government of a young country, an indelible imprint on the town’s streetscape. The customs house just happened to be properly aligned with the Pictou Bar Lighthouse. The Department of Marine received permission to exhibit navigational lights from its tower. The department’s report for 1878 provides the following information on the customs house: “A range light has been placed during last summer in the tower of the new Custom House, just above the railway station, in the Town of Pictou. It is a fixed white. The light is shewn by means of three argand gas-burners, each having 25 jets – two furnished with 15-inch reflectors, shews seaward, and one with a 12-inch reflector, shews across the harbor to southward. The light is under charge of the keeper of the Custom House building.” In September 1954 Hurricane Edna caused extensive damage in Nova Scotia, its high winds destroyed the tower atop the customs house. A light was still exhibited from the customs house after the loss of the tower until at least 1959.

Description: Rug Hooking Changes People So many times I have heard people say that rug hooking changed them. As they started rug hooking they began to see the world differently, started noticing beauty around them. Hooking rugs allowed them to express themselves, to use their time wisely and creatively, and opened up a whole new community of people to them. Rug hooking is full of possibilities. It has changed my life, and been a powerful force in changing the lives of the people I have met through it over these twenty five years. My studio in beautiful Amherst, Nova Scotia, is a gathering place for rug hookers and fibre artists worldwide. My studio offers everything from original hooked rugs to workshops, kits, patterns, fine wools, yarns, hooks, frames, books and joyous ideas. The studio is a dream to wander around in. Come see us, the tea is on. Facilities / Services: We will teach you how to hook rugs on site. Free beginner class the last Saturday of every month.

Description: Demeter Farm offers a peaceful U-Pick experience among our carefully nurtured Honeyberry bushes (also known as Haskap) in the heart of Nova Scotia.

It contains several times more antioxidants and vitamins than most other berries, making it a true superfood. Guests can enjoy picking their own berries or purchase fresh pre-picked pints at our roadside stand. Our farm is spray-free, calm, and ideal for those looking to reconnect with nature through a healthy, hands-on experience. Due to the delicate nature of our young plants, the farm welcomes visitors aged 14 and up. Visit our website or facebook for updates on picking conditions, berry availability, and farm guidelines.

It’s an immersive cultural experience—flavors, heat, and atmosphere that tell a story. A Cultural Memory, Not Just a Meal From the crackle of charcoal to the lingering spice that follows you back into the Halifax night, every dish creates a memory. Visitors gain more than a meal—they take home a story of global culture discovered in Atlantic Canada.

Description: Janet makes a wide variety of functional and artistic pottery pieces both on the wheel and handbuilt. She loves using unconventional textures, including pieces from nature, to make the surface of platters and dishes come alive. She designs many Maritime themed pieces that highlight the beautiful Atlantic seascape, including fish platters, wave patterns and shells – even mermaids! Her pottery features a unique combining of glazes resulting in vibrant colours making each mug, bowl, plate or even gnome absolutely one of a kind. Her studio is her happy place and her hope is that that joy shines through in each piece. As a former educator, it brings me great joy to teach pottery to adults from my studio which is housed in a 200+ year old barn right in the heart of historic Shelburne. It is a place of inspiration, creativity and lots of laughter! Tuesday – Saturday 10am – 4pm
