Glace Bay & Area

Where Industry Meets Inspiration

On Cape Breton’s east coast, Glace Bay offers visitors a deep dive into Nova Scotia’s coal mining and maritime heritage. Go underground at the Cape Breton Miners Museum, explore the birthplace of transatlantic communication at the Marconi National Historic Site and catch a live show at the iconic Savoy Theatre. Grab a bite just across the street at The Brixton, one of the town’s favourite dining spots. Glace Bay is a community built on resilience, rich stories and welcoming charm.
