Your ultimate Cape Breton Island Discovery package includes:
See the most of Cape Breton Island on a self-drive tour that brings you to the Bras d’Or Lake Biosphere, famed Highlands, and cultural capital of Sydney.
Where the mountains meet the sea, you’ll find iconic ocean views, hiking trails, colourful fishing villages, and secluded beaches accessible only by kayak and sheer will.
Stunning landscapes demand intrepid exploration. Hike the boreal forest. Paddle to a secluded cove. Camp on the edge of a cliff. Discover our Island’s adventurous heart.
Journey to a place where trails marble the forest and the locals have fins. This coastal park wraps adventure in rugged wilderness to offer peaks, waterfalls, golf, beaches and so much more.
You’ll hear it before you see it. A rhythmic drumming, the intermingling of three mother tongues, the soft tap of pointed toes, a flurry of fiddle strings—the heartbeat of our Island.
Get back to our roots and fall in love with Cape Breton Island’s natural charm. RV around the Cabot Trail. Camp cliffside with the sunrise as your alarm clock. Or, simply venture backcountry to disconnect.
