Dinghy Beach
User Review
( votes)
Small swimming area by the Pugwash wharf, open to the public. There are no lifeguards here, so swim at your own risk. The drop-off is quick, especially closer to the wharf, but it’s a great swimming spot because there are few rocks or seaweed. Conveniently, there’s a paved parking lot beside the beach and a […]
Inn the Elms: B&B
User Review
( votes)
A personal favourite, Inn the Elms is a family-run restaurant and bed & breakfast serving more than the average diner food you’d expect from other local restaurants. From Atlantic salmon to N.Y. strip steak, they’ll surely have something that interests your palate. I highly recommend sticking around for dessert as well.

Gulf Shore Provincial Park

The Gulf Shore Provincial Park is a public area with picnic tables (some sheltered) and a short stroll to the beach. It’s a great spot to take advantage of the warm waters on the East Coast. Not too rocky, with large sandbars at low tide, it’s the perfect place for a little walk with the […]
