About

Explore the dramatic Northern Cape Breton coastline on this 2-night, tiny home getaway with guided sea kayak or hiking tour, plus unlimited rentals.

Relax shoreside in your cozy eco-friendly tiny home. Stroll the nearby barrier beach and watch the stars rise over South Harbour. The next day, join Cabot Trail Adventures on a guided, half-day sea kayak or hiking tour of the dramatic Northern Cape Breton coastline. Leaving from your accommodations, head out by sea kayak (offered in midsummer) to explore marshy coves, a barrier beach, and open ocean waters. For visits in spring and fall, you’ll explore the coast by land on a private, guided hiking tour along a mountain plateau OR explore a beautiful wind-swept headland with views of the surrounding cliffs and coastline. After your day of adventure, float harbour side on paddle boards or lounge on your shoreside patio.
