The north shore of the Minas Basin is one of Nova Scotia's hidden treasures. Follow the Glooscap Trail as it winds along the Minas Basin and offers a view of the world's highest tides. Hunt for fossils, amethyst and agates along the shoreline, or move inland to discover one of the many cascading waterfalls.
