From Halifax it's a four hour drive up to Baddeck a town situated on the stunning Bras d'Or Lakes, reached by a world famous scenic drive with spectacular views of the seaside terrain and rolling seascapes.
Take leisurely strolls along the lake's boardwalk and wharf, looking out for the pretty lighthouse, eagles and many sailboats. Browse the many art and craft shops and take a look at Alexander Graham Bell's mansion or national historic site. You can rent a kayak lakeside and explore the waters keeping a watchful eye out for puffins and other amazing seabirds.
In Beddeck stay at:
- Bras d'Or Lakes Campground - the only lakefront Campground in Baddeck.
Once you've had your fill of Cape Breton, head over to Prince Edward Island via the ferry from Caribou, Nova Scotia to Wood Island, PEI. Drive through the magnificent scenery to Charlottetown. Here you can tour restored historic buildings including Founders Hall and Province House National Historic Site. Take a seal watching tour out in the harbor where you're almost guaranteed to see some seals as well as many sea birds and perhaps some dolphins. If there's one thing you don't miss, make sure it's the Lobster at New Glasgow.

Leave the island behind and head over to Moncton via the Confederation bridge. Hopefully you might catch an outdoor summer concert but otherwise visit the many museums or historic buildings. Check out the Hopewell Rocks, also known as the Flowerpot Rocks , 40 minutes away. The rocks are caused by tidal erosion from the extreme tidal range and can only be walked around between three hours before and after low tide.
