olemissreb Posted December 24, 2017 #1 Share Posted December 24, 2017 A friend of mine recommended Cape Breton as a sight to see in Nova Scotia. My mom and I will be on a cruise in Sept. 2019 that goes to Nova Scotia. Can anyone tell me whether Cape Breton is something doable from the cruise port? I think we are only in port for 12 hours.

TIA If are stopping in Halifax. Cape Breton isn't doable. Look for one that stops in Sydney NS. That is the port stop for Cape Breton. Here are links to Cape Breton Island. https://www.cbisland.com/#/gallery/recent http://www.novascotia.com/about-nova-scotia/regions/cape-breton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryann ns Posted December 24, 2017 #3 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Cape Breton is a large island and is part of Nova Scotia. It is very beautiful. The drive known as the Cabot Trail is particularly famous. However with just a day stop in Sydney you do not have time to drive the entire Cabot Trail or to see the most scenic part (in my view) which is on the west coast. Here is a document we are working on which gives you more information about options for cruise visitors to Sydney: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SHnC1bdaKtBLTr9bcJShb3a0escYZQKLWkZF4seT14I/edit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olemissreb Posted December 24, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Thank you both for your replies. I guess we'll just miss Cape Breton this time and have to make a return trip some day. Back to planning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
