Hello Dennis,
Our guides are local photographers and artists who have made hundreds of visits to Peggy’s Cove since 2015. They know the best spots for photos and share easy-to-learn tips for you to create stunning travel images. You’ll also get a chance to explore the rich history of the area, with archival images, maps, and movies courtesy of the NS Archives. Later in the morning, as more people arrive on the big buses, we sneak out and visit a quiet local hiking spot at nearby Polly’s Cove.
The picturesque fishing village is home to North America’s most famous lighthouse and boasts stunning views of the North Atlantic and a rich history of over two centuries.
