- Description:
Welcome to the seacoast. Breathe the salty, fresh air. Feel the wind off the Bay of Fundy. Enjoy a spectacular view that changes with the rise and fall of the Minas Basin tides.
Five Islands Lighthouse is the star attraction of Five Islands Lighthouse Park. The historic lighthouse stands like a beacon, welcoming to the park visitors from near and far. This wooden, “pepper pot” lighthouse was built in 1913 at nearby Sand Point. In 2008 it had to be relocated and now sits perfectly in its new home overlooking the islands. (The lighthouse is closed to the public until further notice.)
Visitors can enjoy the 8.8 ha (22 acre) coastal park with a panoramic view, ship playground, walking paths, benches, and beach access. Accessible amenities include a viewing deck, picnic shelter, washrooms, playground and flat, crushed gravel paths.
The spectacular view includes all Five Islands (Moose, Diamond, Long, Egg, Pinnacle) as well as the Old Wife (part of Five Islands Provincial Park), the Brothers (also known as Two Islands), Cape Blomidon and Cape Split. This is notably among the best scenery in the Bay of Fundy.
Electric vehicle charging available onsite (1 x Universal SAE J1772 connector, level 2).
The lighthouse is owned by the Municipality of Colchester and is a Municipal Heritage Property.
Five Islands Lighthouse Park is part of the Cliffs of Fundy UNESCO Global Geopark.

- Description: Enjoy a spectacular view that changes with the tide at this coastal park beside the Minas Basin of the Bay of Fundy – home of the highest tides! Breathe the salty, fresh air. Feel the wind off the Bay.
You won’t feel crowded here. Five Islands Lighthouse Park has 8.8 ha (22 acres) of open parkland, almost 300 m (1000 feet) of oceanfront and access to a long, gravel beach.
The historic lighthouse is the star attraction of Five Islands Lighthouse Park. It stands like a beacon, welcoming to the park visitors from near and far. This wooden, “pepper pot” lighthouse was built in 1913 at nearby Sand Point. In 2008 it had to be relocated and now sits perfectly in its new home overlooking the islands. The lighthouse is a municipal heritage property. (The lighthouse is closed to the public until further notice.)
Visitors can enjoy a unique ship playground for the kids (ship ahoy!) and walking paths (1 km) to stretch your legs. Relax and enjoy the view from the accessible viewing deck, benches and hammocks. An accessible picnic shelter provides shade, and accessible washrooms are open daily from mid-May to mid-October. An original, starboard hand buoy is another unique feature in the park.
The park’s panoramic view includes all Five Islands (Moose, Diamond, Long, Egg, Pinnacle) as well as the Old Wife (part of Five Islands Provincial Park), the Brothers (also known as Two Islands), Cape Blomidon and Cape Split. This is notably among the best scenery in the Bay of Fundy.
Five Islands Lighthouse Park is owned and operated by the Municipality of Colchester and is part of the Cliffs of Fundy UNESCO Global Geopark.
Electric vehicle charging available onsite (1 x Universal SAE J1772 connector, level 2).
Dogs on leash are permitted in the park; please clean up after your dog. Motorized vehicles are prohibited in the park.
Enjoy the view safely. Keep back from the steep bank, it is actively eroding.
To access the beach, walk to the end of Broderick Lane. If you go on the mudflats use caution and beware of the fast-rising, incoming tide. Do not attempt to walk to the islands. The channels fill first, and quickly, and you can be trapped by the tide.

- Description: French follows below | Le français suit ci dessous
This area was first known as Nme’juaqnek – place of bountiful fish. Mi’kmaq traditionally came here to gather and fish. In the 1600s and 1700s, it was the centre of early European colonization and settlement. Today, the fort is situated on 15 hectares (37 acres) of land in beautiful Annapolis Royal and is what remains of a long line of forts first erected by the Scots, then subsequently built by the French and lastly taken over and re-built by the British to become what we now know as Fort Anne National Historic Site.
On your visit, step inside the Officers’ Quarters Museum to explore the exhibits and discover the relationships between the Mi’kmaq, French, British, Acadians, and African Nova Scotians who have called this place home. Take some time to admire the painting, “Our People” by Loretta Gould, depicting Mi’kmaw presence in Nme’juaqnek since time immemorial. View the handcrafted Fort Anne Heritage Tapestry designed by Kyoko Grenier-Sage and fabricated by hundreds of volunteers, depicting the last 400 years and arrival of Europeans in the area.
On the grounds, stroll along the perimeter walking trail and enjoy the interpretive panels and grand vistas of the Annapolis River and Basin. If timing permits, take advantage of a guided tour of the Vauban Fortifications or delve into the Acadian connection to Fort Anne with a Parks Canada interpreter.
Open daily 9 am to 5 pm
Services change with the seasons. The grounds are open year-round.
Lieu historique national du Fort-Anne
Cette région a d’abord été connue sous le nom de Nme’juaqnek – lieu de pêche abondante. Les Mi’kmaq y venaient traditionnellement pour faire de la cueillette et de la pêche. Dans les années 1600 et 1700, la région a été au cœur de la colonisation et de l’établissement des premiers Européens. Aujourd’hui, le fort est situé sur un terrain de 15 hectares (37 acres) dans la belle ville d’Annapolis Royal et constitue ce qui reste d’une longue série de forts d’abord érigés par les Écossais, puis construits par les Français et enfin repris et reconstruits par les Britanniques pour devenir ce que nous connaissons aujourd’hui sous le nom de lieu historique national du Fort-Anne.
Lors de votre visite, entrez dans le Musée du quartier des officiers pour explorer les expositions et découvrir les relations entre les Mi’kmaq, les Français, les Britanniques, les Acadiens et les Néo Écossais d’origine africaine qui ont élu domicile dans ce lieu. Prenez le temps d’admirer le tableau « Our People » de Loretta Gould, qui illustre la présence des Mi’kmaq à Nme’juaqnek depuis des temps immémoriaux. Découvrez la Tapisserie historique du Fort-Anne, conçue par Kyoko Grenier Sage et fabriquée à la main par des centaines de bénévoles, décrivant les 400 dernières années et l’arrivée des Européens dans la région.
Sur le site, vous pouvez suivre le sentier périphérique et profiter des panneaux d’interprétation et des vues grandioses sur la rivière et le bassin Annapolis. Si le temps le permet, faites une visite guidée des fortifications de Vauban ou apprenez-en plus sur le lien entre les Acadiens et le fort Anne avec un interprète de Parcs Canada.

- Description: Located in Windsor in the Bay of Fundy & Annapolis Valley region, Fort Edward which was built by Major Charles Lawrence in 1750 to secure the overland route between Annapolis Royal, the old capital of Nova Scotia, and the new capital at Halifax, founded in 1749.
The blockhouse, which is the oldest in North America, and earthworks are all that remain of Fort Edward. Acadian families were detained here after the 1755 deportation. The fort was an important base during the Seven Years’ War, the American Revolution and the War of 1812. At its peak, Fort Edward served as a small, but busy military hub.
An exhibit inside the blockhouse provides information about the history of Fort Edward. Interpretive panels found around the grounds, present the story of Fort Edward’s role in the history of the area. There is also a short, 1.3 km walking trail around the property with beautiful views over the surrounding landscape.
Bus tours are welcome.
Open Wednesday to Sunday: 9am – 5pm (closed Monday and Tuesdays) with interpretation in July and August.
The grounds are open year-round. The trail is not maintained in winter.

- Description: Built in 1855, Fort Point Lighthouse is the fourth oldest surviving Lighthouse in Nova Scotia and is valued as a rare surviving example of pre-Confederation lighthouses, for the role it played in the history of Liverpool, and because the lighthouse and the site are integral to the historical character of the town.
Since the 18th century, the Fort Point Lighthouse has hosted a signal station and during the American Revolution, a fort with blockhouse was erected and armed with cannons to protect the harbour from privateers. One of the lightkeeper’s duties was to operate a hand-cranked foghorn in reply to foghorn signals from incoming vessels as they entered into the harbour. A hand-cranked foghorn is still located within the lighthouse today.
Today, the lighthouse is open to visitors seasonally while the park surrounding this Provincial Heritage Property is open year-round offering picnic tables, interpretive panels, gift shop and a beautiful view of Liverpool Harbour and the Coffin Island lighthouse. Be sure to explore the lighthouse and to crank the foghorn!
Admission to the lighthouse is free.

A mighty adventure is waiting for you!
Located 35 minutes from Sydney, and surrounded by Cape Breton’s rocky shoreline, Fortress of Louisbourg National Historic Site brings you back to French colonial life between 1713 and 1758. Home to the L’nu, also known as the Mi’kmaq, since time immemorial, the 18th century brought French, Basque, German, English, Irish, Scottish, and African people to its shores. Immerse yourself in this diverse history as you explore a beautiful coastal landscape. Take in the looming fortifications, kitchen gardens, and elegant houses of the reconstruction, then wander original 18th-century ruins for a full experience of the past come to life.
Costumed animators, fascinating exhibits, breathtaking scenery, and coastal trails offer unforgettable experiences for all travellers. Discover the many cultures that helped shape Canada and continue to thrive on Cape Breton-Unama’ki, through music, dance, language, craft and culinary traditions. Connect with a land that is filled with memory and share in fun experiences that will last a lifetime.
The Fortress of Louisbourg is the largest historical reconstruction in North America. For the best experience, we recommend you plan a minimum of four hours for your visit. With so much to explore, you may just wish to come back the next day!
Visitor services available from May 18 to October 31, 2026
Open all year long: an adventure for every season!
Low season (November 1, 2025 to May 17, 2026)
Peak season (July 1 to September 12, 2026)
Shoulder seasons (May 19 to June 30, 2026 and September 13 to October 31, 2026)
Plan ahead
Prepare for 18th-century conditions in all seasons. We recommend you dress in layers due to the coastal climate and wear comfortable walking shoes. This expansive site includes different types of terrain, from loose gravel and cobblestone to grassy green spaces, and some short inclines. Some of the constructed buildings, exhibits, and restaurants are accessible through gravel ramps. Reconstructed 18th-century buildings within the fortified town are not fully accessible. Many of the doorways are wide enough to accommodate a wheelchair but in some instances the turning radius is not sufficient for a wheelchair once inside the building.
Expect many sensory experiences at the site, from the sounds of farm animals and historic weapons, to the smell of open-hearth fires and salty ocean air. For more information to help you plan your visit, please contact us: louisbourg.info@pc.gc.ca
Family Fun
What was it like to be a kid 300 years ago? Step back in time and experience the Fortress of Louisbourg through the eyes of a child!
Watch sheep, chickens, goats, and geese as they roam the grounds. Try your hand at archaeology with artifact puzzles in the King’s Bastion or take a break in the kid’s room—perfect for relaxing and snapping a fun photo in front of the recreated Frederic Gate.
Adventure, discovery, and unforgettable memories await your family at the Fortress of Louisbourg!
Listen to L’nu songs and stories at the Mi’kmaw Interpretive Centre, watch a lace-making demonstration, or enjoy a family picnic in the King’s Garden. With a whole 18th-century world to explore and many spots to stop and play, your day will be packed with memories.
Follow your nose to the bakery, and pick up a loaf of “soldier’s bread” – This hearty and healthy bread is baked fresh daily in traditional stone ovens, following an 18th-century recipe. Savour the signature flavour, but don’t leave it sitting too long… or you’ll have a cannon ball instead!
Travelling with a stroller? On the wide streets of the Fortress you’ll encounter loose gravel and cobblestone, and keep in mind that some 18th century-style buildings have narrow openings and stone steps to navigate.
Outdoor Experiences
Nature enthusiasts will feel right at home in Louisbourg.
Promenade through the upper class gardens which mimic the gardens of Versailles in France. As you walk, keep an eye out for barn swallows, an endangered species of bird that nests in the eaves of reconstructed buildings.
Explore one of our five walking trails to catch a glimpse of ruins, a lighthouse, and rugged coastlines. These trails are family friendly and offer peaceful moments to connect with nature and each other.
Dine around the fortress

Food services are available from May to October.

Planifiez votre visite
Préparez-vous aux conditions du 18e siècle en toutes saisons. Nous vous recommandons de vous habiller en couches en raison du climat côtier et de porter des chaussures de marche confortables. Ce vaste site comprend différents types de terrain, du gravier et des pavés meubles aux espaces verts, en passant par de courtes pentes. Certains des bâtiments construits, des expositions et des restaurants sont accessibles par des rampes en gravier. Les édifices du 18e siècle rebâtis dans l’enceinte de la ville ne le sont pas entièrement. La plupart des embrasures de porte sont assez larges pour permettre l’entrée, mais, dans certains cas, l’espace pour tourner à l’intérieur des bâtiments est insuffisant
Attendez-vous à de nombreuses expériences sensorielles sur le site, des sons des animaux de la ferme et des armes historiques à l’odeur des feux à foyer ouvert et à l’air salin de l’océan. Pour plus d’informations afin de vous aider à planifier votre visite, veuillez nous contacter : louisbourg.info@pc.gc.ca
Activités familiales
À quoi ressemblait la vie d’un enfant il y a 300 ans ? Remontez le temps et découvrez la forteresse de Louisbourg à travers les yeux d’un enfant !
Observez les moutons, les poulets, les chèvres et les oies qui se promènent sur le terrain. Essayez l’archéologie avec des puzzles d’artefacts dans le bastion du roi ou faites une pause dans la salle des enfants – parfaite pour se détendre et prendre une photo amusante devant la porte Frédéric recréée.
Aventure, découverte et souvenirs inoubliables attendent votre famille à la Forteresse de Louisbourg !
Écoutez les chansons et les histoires de L’nu au Centre d’interprétation mi’kmaq, assistez à une démonstration de fabrication de dentelle ou profitez d’un pique-en-famille dans le jardin du roi. Avec tout un monde du 18e siècle à explorer et de nombreux endroits où s’arrêter et jouer, votre journée sera remplie de souvenirs. Suivez votre nez jusqu’à la boulangerie et prenez une miche de « pain de soldat » – Ce pain copieux et sain est cuit tous les jours dans des fours en pierre traditionnels, selon une recette du 18e siècle. Goûtez la saveur signature, mais ne la laissez pas reposer trop longtemps… ou vous aurez un boulet de canon à la place !
Vous voyagez avec une poussette ? Dans les larges rues de la forteresse, vous rencontrerez du gravier et des pavés, et gardez à l’esprit que certains bâtiments de style 18e siècle ont des ouvertures étroites et des marches en pierre pour naviguer.
Expériences en plein air
Les amoureux de la nature se sentiront comme chez eux à Louisbourg.
Promenez-vous dans les jardins de la classe supérieure qui imitent les jardins de Versailles en France. En marchant, gardez un œil sur les hirondelles rustiques, une espèce d’oiseaux en péril, qui niche dans les avant-toits des bâtiments reconstruits.
Explorez l’un de nos cinq sentiers pédestres pour apercevoir des ruines, un phare et des côtes accidentées. Ces sentiers sont adaptés aux familles et offrent des moments paisibles pour se connecter avec la nature et les uns avec les autres.
Manger à la forteresse
Il y a tant de saveurs à découvrir au lieu historique national de la Forteresse-de-Louisbourg ! Des recettes traditionnelles aux pique-niques épiques, en passant par les spiritueux historiques et les expériences gastronomiques historiques les plus authentiques, n’oubliez pas de goûter à l’histoire lors de votre visite. Les restaurants sont gérés par l’Association Fortress Louisbourg (en anglais seulement), un organisme de bienfaisance sans but lucratif voué à la mise en valeur et à la préservation de Louisbourg du 18e siècle. Les revenus générés sont utilisés pour soutenir cette mission. Les services de restauration sont disponibles de mai à octobre.
Le saviez-vous ?
Marie Marguerite Rose a été réduite en esclavage en Guinée, en Afrique, et vendue à un marchand à Louisbourg au XVIIIe siècle. Après 19 ans, elle a été libérée de l’esclavage et a ouvert une auberge et une taverne. Elle est la première femme d’affaires noire libre de l’histoire du Canada. Visitez la plaque commémorant son histoire et un inventaire recréé de ses biens.
Louisbourg est le site du premier observatoire au Canada. Le ciel sombre au-dessus de la forteresse en fait l’endroit idéal pour observer les étoiles 300 ans plus tard, à travers nos expériences nocturnes du 18e siècle.
Deux batailles déterminantes dans l’histoire du Canada se sont tenues ici en 1745 et 1758, impliquant les Français, les Anglais, les Acadiens, les Écossais et les Mi’kmaq. Visitez les ruines des fortifications d’origine ou mettez-vous dans la peau d’un soldat grâce à des expériences immersives.
Vous et votre chien
Voyagez-vous avec un animal de compagnie bien-aimé ?
Les chiens et autres animaux domestiques sont interdits dans la forteresse reconstruite de Louisbourg, alors assurez-vous de prendre des dispositions pour votre animal de compagnie avant votre visite.
Si vous voyagez avec un animal d’assistance, veuillez communiquer avec nous pour plus d’informations : louisbourg.info@pc.gc.ca

- Description: Frabjous Delights Specialty Foods
In case you were wondering, the word frabjous comes from Lewis Carroll’s “Jabberwocky” poem. It’s a mash-up of the words fair, fabulous, and joyous.
After moving to Halifax in the spring of 2022, Inge and Marshall discovered that there were many things they loved that they couldn’t find. They decided then and there that they would re-establish their chocolate company, Whim Chocolate, and surround it with the specialty food items they love. As they started telling their friends about their plans, their friends started asking for products that they loved and that they couldn’t find. They added those items to the list. After they opened their shop on the corner of Agricola and Roberts streets in the spring of 2023, their customers started asking for products that they loved and that they couldn’t find. The theme of the shop was born!
What you’ll discover in their little shop are specialty food items that are loved by Inge and Marshall, their friends, and their customers! A customer once told Inge that the reason she came to the shop wasn’t to ask them to find a product for herself but rather because she enjoyed “seeing what other people loved.” That’s the feeling you get when you enter their shop! You’ll be surrounded by a curated collection of loved specialty food items and, not to mention, delicious chocolate!
The shop is now packed full of Stumptown coffee from Oregon (“I wondered if it was really that effing good. It really is that effing good.”), Lakrids by Bülow licorice from Denmark (Inge: “You won’t regret it.” Customer: “I already don’t regret it.”), Edmund Fallot mustard and Le Jacquard Français tea towels from France, and many, many, more delectable treats! They’ve also recently added La Chambre aux Confitures jams from a boutique in Paris, San Nicasio potato chips from famed Spanish Michelin starred chef José Andrés, and, coming soon, private import of the best paprika from Hungary! You will also find the best of the best locally made products throughout the shop as well.
There are frequently Lizzo dance parties and disco Fridays, so you can bop while you shop! They’ve also started hosting charcuterie and oyster shucking workshops and, coming soon, a mocktail workshop with a special session entitled “What is Orgeat anyway?”
Please stop by and tell us what you love!
Whim Chocolate
Whim Chocolate started on a whim in Vinisce, Croatia. Inge’s best friend, Michelle, gave her some chocolate from Switzerland and she was inspired to make her own, handmade, small batch, seasonal, artisan chocolate bark using only the finest ingredients.
Whim recently relocated from Boston to Halifax where owners Inge and Marshall have opened two locations of Frabjous Delights Specialty Foods – at 2530 Agricola Street near the intersection of Agricola & Charles St. and in Richmond Yards, located at 2749 Clifton Street.
Please stop by to sample some our scrumpdiddlyumptious chocolate! We can’t wait to see you!

Carry water with you, especially for longer trails, climbs or open barrens.
Bring insect repellent as black flies and mosquitoes are common all summer.
Mountain bikes are permitted only where indicated, for public safety and protection of the environment.
Stay on designated trails and boardwalks to protect fragile vegetation.
Do not throw food or scraps along the trails or roads.

Contemplez les montagnes, la paroi rocheuse abrupte du mont Franey ou la rivière qui serpente dans la vallée, 423 m plus bas. Gardez l’œil ouvert sur la faune – les élans aiment aussi cet habitat.

Pour votre confort et votre sécurité :
N’approchez pas, ne dérangez pas et ne nourrissez pas les animaux sauvages.
Emportez des vêtements appropriés – les changements de temps sont souvent rapides sur le plateau ou le long de la côte.
Emportez de l’eau avec vous, en particulier pour les sentiers plus longs, les ascensions ou les landes ouvertes.
Apportez un insectifuge, car les mouches noires et les moustiques sont fréquents tout au long de l’été.

Restez sur les sentiers et les trottoirs de bois désignés afin de protéger la végétation fragile.

- Description: Explore an ancient Nova Scotia and travel back in time 200-million years ago with dinosaurs roamed the Earth, at the Fundy Geological Museum in Parrsboro, Nova Scotia.
The world’s highest tides break along the shores of the Bay of Fundy, eroding majestic sea cliffs to reveal half a billion years of natural history. Walk with experts from Nova Scotia’s Dinosaur Museum through the region’s rich geological timeline to interpret and experience the incredible landscape you see today. The Parrsboro area contains internationally significant fossils, from Jurassic reptiles and dinosaurs to 300-million-year-old footprints of ancient amphibians and the world’s earliest reptiles. Parrsboro is famous for its gem and mineral treasures which are displayed throughout the museum’s exhibits.
Year-round Discoveries at the Fundy Geological Museum
Exhibit Gallery (on-site experience): Explore the museum’s exhibits of 200-million-year-old dinosaur skeletons, local gems and minerals, and an interactive Pangea time machine. The Fundy Geological Museum is part of the Nova Scotia Museum family and is home to the only Fossil Research Laboratory East of Montreal. Visitors can peer inside the working lab and interact with paleontologists actively researching and studying fossil specimens. The museum’s gallery includes exhibits featuring the area’s significant cultural and industrial history reflected and influenced by the region’s natural history.

Cape Chignecto is a 5,951-hectare natural environment park on a dramatic coastal peninsula. This park offers you an opportunity to appreciate some of the most pristine natural features found in Nova Scotia. Towering 185-metre-high cliffs, 29 kilometres (18 miles) of coastline, some of Nova Scotia’s most significant geological features, deep valleys, sheltered coves, old growth forests and the world’s highest tides can all be found here. The spectacular scenery and the wilderness experience will bring you back time after time.
Visitors wishing to enjoy wilderness hiking and camping must use the Red Rocks Visitor Centre entrance at 1108 West Advocate Road – GPS N45 20.975 W64 49.414.

The park season is from the May long weekend through to the Thanksgiving weekend in October.
For your comfort and safety:
• The tidal range and steep cliffs may trap unwary hikers. The tide rises and falls at a rate of 1 inch per minute.

- Description: Fundy Treasure Tours offers a variety of geological tours along the Bay of Fundy. Your guide, Brian Hebert, has been exploring Nova Scotia’s Bay of Fundy coastline most of his life and started giving his first fossil tours when he was only 12 years old. Brian grew up overlooking the Joggins Fossil Cliffs and could be found out on the beach nearly everyday searching for new discoveries. In fact, many of his discoveries are featured artifacts at the Joggins Fossil Cliffs Centre.
Through taking part in our fossil discovery tours, we hope our guests gain a deeper understanding of the importance of preserving the fossil record found right here in Nova Scotia.
Our tours are primarily offered throughout the Cliffs of Fundy Geopark and Joggins UNESCO World Heritage Site which are both located along Nova Scotia’s northern Bay of Fundy coastline. There are over 40 significant geosites waiting to be explored.
We also offer custom tours throughout the year at various locations and beaches.
On our tours, guests will learn how to identify fossils and different kinds of gems and minerals. Near the Blomidon and Parrsboro areas, agate is a common discovery. It originated inside ancient cooled lava that formed over 200 million years ago. Agate is a semi-precious stone, Nova Scotia’s official gemstone, and is beautiful for making jewelry.
With our deep understanding of geological formations, including rock and mineral identification, we can provide a guided tour at any Nova Scotia beach or geosite. Let us know what you are interested in discovering and we can recommend a tour for you and your group!
Testimonial
“Brian made fossil hunting come alive for our family this summer. Our 8 and 10 year old grandsons had a wonderful time and Brian’s tour was the highlight of their visit to Nova Scotia. We can’t wait to return for his rock and mineral tour!”
– Visitor from Montague, PEI
