 The Marine Drive is a
playground for nature lovers - a world of magnificent coastal beauty,
unspoiled beaches, tidal inlets, and salt marshes teeming with birds
and wildlife. A world-class destination for sea kayakers, seaside parks
and superb hiking trails. Inland, you'll find a vast wilderness, lakes
and rivers legendary with anglers and paddlers.
 Experience Nova Scotia's
living-history museums: a fishermen's store and a goldmining complex in
a 1940s village at Memory Lane in Lake Charlotte; a blacksmith's hammer
ringing at his forge and a picturesque sawmill in a thriving
19th-century town at Sherbrooke Village. At Canso, a short boat takes
you to Grassy Island National Historic Site, one of our earliest
European settlements. An interpreted trail around the island leads past
the remnants of a once-thriving fishing and merchant community of the
early 1700s.
