• Grand Pré National Historic Site - Grand-Pré stands as a significant monument that brings together the Acadian community. Visitors to this site will discover the story of Le Grand Dérangement: a poignant chapter in Acadian history that has influenced the vibrant culture of modern-day Acadians worldwide through its quiet yet powerful revival. The site honors the Grand Pré area as a hub of Acadian settlement from 1682 to 1755 and the Deportation of the Acadians, which began in 1755 and continued until 1762. For many Acadians around the globe, the site remains the heart of their ancestral homeland and a symbol of the enduring bonds that unite them. There is a fee to visit the museum, but no fee to see the church and the legendary statue of Evangeline (heroine of the Longfellow poem) and the Memorial Church.
• Old Post Road - From the View Park on Old Post Road, you can gaze over the 1,300 hectares of farmland, marshes, and dykelands that make up the Landscape of Grand-Pré. Discover the profound human story within this land.

A vast panorama brings to life the efforts of industrious Acadians, who, in the 1680s, overcame geographic challenges and the world’s highest tides to establish thriving settlements. Their ingenious system of dykes remained a technological marvel for hundreds of years—expanded and maintained by English, Scottish, and Dutch settlers until the mid-20th century—and combined with a tumultuous regional history, led to the area’s designation as Canada’s 16th UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Also rich in Mi’kmaw tradition, the dramatic Cape Blomidon—which frames the dykelands—is said to harbor the spirit of the mythical watchman Kluscap, adding another layer to this culturally and naturally diverse landscape.

• Blomidon Look-Off - Blomidon Look-Off is situated atop the North Mountain in the Fundy Shore and Annapolis Valley region. It is a small roadside stop offering a stunning panoramic view of the Annapolis Valley and the Minas Basin. On a clear day, you can see five counties and perhaps a few Bald Eagles from the lookout.
• Hall’s Harbour - Hall’s Harbour Lobster Pound is a working lobster pound in the charming seaside village of Hall’s Harbour in the Bay of Fundy & Annapolis Valley region. It’s a great spot to enjoy some fresh Nova Scotia seafood.

Hall’s Harbour is an authentic fishing village dating back to 1779, when Captain Hall and his privateers used this natural harbor as a base. Take a walk along the harborfront boardwalk and explore the Lobster Pound’s buildings, which date back to the 1820s; interpretive panels provide you with a history of the buildings and area. Enjoy the excellent views of the world-famous Bay of Fundy tides along the way! There is a waterfront restaurant for a delectable seaside meal of lobster! Additional meal options are available.
