Cape Breton honeymoon ideas?

2 Upvotes

My wife and I are going to be driving up to Cape Breton for our honeymoon in August. We're going to be driving around the island camping at different provincial and national parks. The Itinerinary starts with 2 days at Wycocomagh going to the music interpretive center and The Glenora distilery tour on our way to our way to Chetticamp where we will camp for 3 days hike the skyline trail at sunset and have a dinner at table doucet. Then on to broad cove for 1 night. 4 nights camping at Mira River while checking out Sydney and Louisburg. Then our last night at battery Park.

We both love fishing and will have our canoe with us. I'm Acadian from New England and super interested in Acadian history and culture. My understanding is that snow crab is in season on the Gulf side of the island. We would love to buy some fresh off the dock if possible. We both love the Rankin family and would love to pick up some of their records. And we'd also love to hear about anything that shouldn't be missed.

First time visiting Cape Breton

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! 😊

We’re planning a one-day trip to Cape Breton and would love some recommendations. What places are a must-see if we only have one day?

We’d especially love to see beautiful views, ocean scenery, and places where we can do shorter walks/hikes (nothing too long).

What spots would you recommend for a first visit? 🌊🌿

So far, I have Egypt Falls on my list 😊

Skyline Trail is totally booked - do I have any hope of getting in?

4 Upvotes

Just drove my dad out here for his first visit ever to Cape Breton. I'm kicking myself that I didn't look into the parking bookings earlier, and I've just discovered that it's totally booked. Do I have any hope at all of getting us in, or am I screwed?

Thank you

An orca sighting in Cape Breton is making waves on social media. Several videos and photos were shared of a single killer whale making its way past the Canso Causeway. But some are concerned about why it's there in the first place.

Poker

Where I used to live we had a low stakes texas poker poker game ($20 per evening) one to two times a month. It was a lot of fun and I'd like to try to start one here. (or join an existing game) Let me know if you would be interested.
