South Shore Region<br />
The South Shore stretches from the capital of Halifax down through the provinces’ southern<br />
fishing villages and towns. The idyllic setting of this area consists of spectacular bays dotted with<br />
islands, 18th century sea captains’ mansions and brightly painted fishing fleets. Explore warm and<br />
welcoming communities and enjoy quaint boutiques and galleries. After a day of touring, relax in a<br />
luxurious resort, historic inn or bed and breakfast.<br />
