You can get to Nova Scotia several ways including by plane, train (VIA Rail) or by car. However, cruising has become a popular way for tourists to discover what Nova Scotia has to offer.

Halifax is a unique port as it gives passengers many tour options (Halifax City Tours, Peggy' Cove, Lunenburg, Annapolis Valley Winery Tours and many more to choose from).

Peggys Cove, one of the top "must see" sights for any tourist visiting Nova Scotia.
Less than 50 kilometers from Halifax it makes for a beautiful day trip, and for me even the drive there along the coast of St. Margarets Bay is truely beautiful.
That coast has to be on of the most desirable places to live in Canada, and the size of some of the homes reflects that. The coast is tree lined and dotted with stunning inlets and bays.
The lighthouse at Peggys Cove is located on a granite out crop called Peggys Point and is still in active use today. You can find some great information including the history of the cove on wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org ...
