Nova Scotia is home to over 160 historic lighthouses
but no beacon is as photographed as the one in the vibrant fishing village of Peggy’s Cove.

Built in 1915, Peggy’s Point Lighthouse still keeps watch over surging ocean waves and working lobster boats. Amble over giant rocks worn smooth by the sea and share in the view.
