The Birthplace of New Scotland, Pictou NS
My favourite place in Nova Scotia is the town of Pictou. I know I am getting close to my favorite place in the WORLD when I touch down at Halifax airport. After flying for most of the day, that last hour to Pictou County seems to take forever, but as soon as I see the Pictou Causeway I know I am almost there. First stop Saltwater Cafe for the best food and a cold Keiths. Then off to Sobeys to fill the cupboards and down the Sunrise Trail to our perfect little cottage on the Northumberland Strait. For a California girl far from home; home and heaven is right out on my screened porch listening to the sounds of Nova Scotia.
How do you get to Pictou? It's just a 1.5-hour drive northeast of Halifax. Check out the cheap flights to Halifax offered by WestJet. And, if you need a car rental or hotel, we have those too!
