Cruising in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland, by Gus Wilson
In the summer months, the Atlantic Coast of Nova Scotia and the south coast of Newfoundland make a wonderful cruising ground, with many anchorages, colourful villages, the diverse city of Halifax, and the remarkable warmth and peace of the huge Bras d'Or Lakes in Cape Breton. Costs for food and marinas are modest and it is easy to find anchorages with no other boats. Whales abound, and lobster pots do not.
Getting to Atlantic Canada requires going up the east coast of the US, and sailing from Cape Cod or Maine, or a much longer open water passage from Bermuda. Gus and Helen have done all three, and will tell you all you need to know to make the most of this lovely area.
