Our Eastern Shore attractions highlight the nature and history of this unique place. Explore a lighthouse or gold mine workings. Visit a freshwater aquarium, a wildlife rehabilitation centre, or newborn animals at a heritage farm museum. Step back to the past for a day at the Canso Islands National Historic Site once a bustling French foothold in the New World and the site of heated battle between French and British when control of the continent was at stake. Or take a trip back in time that lasts a little longer with a two-day costumed heritage immersion experience at Sherbrooke Village’s Hands-On History program. You can stop for an hour or two at enchanting little museums like West Chezzetcook’s Acadia House or spend a day exploring the exhibits and collections of the Shearwater Aviation Museum including the twelve aircraft from a McDonnell Voodoo to the Skiorsky Horse that are housed there.
