Nova Scotia Campgrounds

[dewdev]

Hi All:

Do you have any recommendations for campgrounds in Nova Scotia that you enjoyed?

We did a full month long trip in  Sept thru early October to the area shown 2 years ago and it was barely long enough.

Each of the items with a TENT on the map are highlighted in our trip..."the big loop" and and be seen in pictures with comments here:

Scroll down to the pix section on Nova Scotia Main Island.

Graves Island Provincial Park - Site 31 Shown - is Just South of Halifax on the main island.

Puts you perfectly in a spot for the UNESCO site of Lunenburg, Halifax and Peggys Cove as day trips.
I would stay there at least 4-5 days if I were doing over.
To get into the park you cross a causeway into the park which is on an island.

 

Going south don't miss staying at "The Islands PP"

Further SE = Site 54 - Islands Provincial Park - Puts you on the edge of the water....this is on the SE Corner of the main Island.

North on the main Island before you cross onto Breton Island you may want to also see the Fortress of Louisburg...which is on the north east side of the island.  A good stop point is Mira River Provincial Park as you can easily drive down to Fortress Louisburg from Mira River...and then north after that stop.

 

SIte 28 - Electric & Water at Mira River PP Above....but the site 34 below would fit and is right on the bay, but no Electric or Water...

 

I've labeled all the campsite photos for each park in our blog, but If you have any specific questions we could get on a call.
