Over the past few years, it’s been great to see so many new businesses open up downtown Sydney, and in this blog, I wanted to share with you my experiences after spending a weekend downtown.
From fossil hunting, searching for sea glass, and rockhounding to hiking, kayaking, and swimming the Northside's beaches offer a range of options. And with a history going back millions of years, there's plenty to see and learn about too.
The Island Wide Waterfall Weekend is a weekend to get up and get outside. Cape Breton Island will be bustling this weekend as visitors and residents are encouraged to join us as we travel to 12 different waterfalls across the Island!
No matter where you go on Cape Breton Island, you’ll find magical places to explore, guaranteed to be bursting with artisan studios and galleries around every corner.
Snow Covered mountains. Forests and fields blanketed with fresh layers of snow, your winter adventure just waiting to be explored. Cape Breton’s hiking trails and scenic routes are like works of art from mother nature’s winter palate.
While there are countless places on Cape Breton Island to get away from it all, Sydney and area offers a different experience—urban amenities and downtown vibes with a waterfront feel.
Get Your Heart Pumping with these extreme and active adventures! Try your hand at windsurfing, go whale watching, hop on a jet ski, fly in a helicopter, and more.
Waterfall Season returns to Cape Breton Island!
