Take the Lahave Ferry for $7 it is a great shortcut to a favourite area Risser’s Beach and Petite Rivière. Visit Saltbox Gallery and Mariners Gift on your way to Green Bay. This beach is a hidden treasure with such great beauty. Back On the other side of the Lahave River you will find Rose Bay and Hirtle’s Beach... great for a hike at Gaff Point.

The rock formations are beautiful. Try to visit early or later in the day to avoid the mobs. Stop for an ice cream and souvenir at the Whale’s Back and skip the mobs right in Peggy’s Cove.
