From white sands to dreamy seascapes and fresh seafood, the Eastern Shore is all about R&R. This laid-back coastal paradise is known for its spectacular landscapes, world-class surfing, and of course, Nova Scotia’s famous beaches. Home to historic communities like Fisherman’s Cove, East Preston, and North Preston, a thriving craft culture, and a relaxed, artistic spirit, the Eastern Shore offers a wealth of experiences from Eastern Passage to Ecum Secum.
Halifax is in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq people. The people of the Mi’kmaw Nation have lived on this territory for millennia, and we acknowledge them as the past, present and future caretakers of this land. Historically, a land acknowledgment is a traditional practice shared amongst Indigenous groups to recognize the Indigenous land and territory they are visiting. Today a land acknowledgement remains a way to express one’s gratitude to the Indigenous people for being stewards of the land that we live and work on.
