Smokey View

1 site · RV1 acre · Sydney, NS

At the other side of the harbour is Ingonish Ferry. At one time the road around the harbour did not exist. People, horses and goods came across the bar by means of a ferry. There were many wharves with wooden ships tied up. The long white building on the corner used to be on the bar. A walk along the bar will award you with a view of the Keltic Lodge. Continue straight at the corner and you will find a trail that will take you to Ingonish beach.

Overview

About

Cabots Landing Provincial Park beckons adventurers to its rugged shores. Here, you can traverse the 3 km beach walk, gaze upon the steep cliffs of the Pollets Cove-Aspy Fault Wilderness Area, and immerse yourself in the historical significance of explorer John Cabot's landing. While the park does not offer campgrounds, its scenic vistas and rich history provide ample opportunity for day exploration and beachside activities.

When to go

The ideal time to visit Cabots Landing Provincial Park is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is warm and the Aspy Bay's waters invite exploration. Autumn also offers a spectacular display of foliage, but be mindful that conditions can be more unpredictable. Winter visits are best left to the hardy, as the park's beauty is matched by its chilly climate.

Wear sturdy footwear for the beach walk and exploring the wilderness area.
Remember to bring water and snacks, as there are no food services available on-site.
Respect the historical significance of the National Historic Site cairn, commemorating John Cabot's landing.
Be aware that the park operates from dawn until dusk, so plan your visit accordingly.
