Coffee Break


For a coffee break, You can go Tim H. or You can stop at a coffee deck like one in Peggy`s Cove. You'll sit comfortable in a green, blue or yellow Adirondack chair, overlooking Peggy's Cove with the old wharf and the lighthouse.
A nice place on the water is The  Beandock in Shelburne with coloured Adirondacks in a shady garden, overlooking the harbour.



In nearly each travel guide You'll find LaHave Bakery with the red housewall along the Lighthouse Route 331, fifteen minutes from Bridgewater at the bank of the LaHave River. You can choose from a wide variety of breads, rolls, cakes and cookies, made only with traditional ingredients.



My favourite coffeestop is in Maitland Bridge, Highway 8, near the entrance of Kejimkujik National Park.
A place for relaxing after a canoe-tour or hiking in the "Keji". On sunny days You can sit on the deck or in  Adirondacks in the yard. For cold days or early mornings there is a cozy fireplace in the M & W Restaurant. The homemade cakes with a fresh brewed coffee are delicious!

Was ist West Head ?

You can walk through fields of flowers and enjoy a great view of Gull Rock Lighthouse. Here is a bird watcher's haven on the edge of the continent, next stop ...... NORTH AFRICA.

West Head is the narrow headland, unlike any other, that boldly stretches into the rugged Atlantic Ocean in Shelburne County, the southern most area in Nova Scotia. It is five minutes from the Town of Lockport, known for its rich fishing history and the magnificent Crescent Beach. The Historic Town of Shelburne with all the amenities, and home to Canada's greatest number of 18th century wooden homes is thirty minutes away. Yarmouth, the terminal for the two ferries from Maine, is 1 1/2 hours away and Halifax and its International Airport 2 1/2 hours. West Head.....basking seals, a myriad of coastal and shore birds plus the crashing waves of the north Atlantic......
