Cape Chignecto — Nova Scotia's wildest Fundy coast.

Cape Chignecto sits on the tip of the Chignecto Peninsula between Chignecto Bay and the Minas Basin. The main trailhead is at Red Rocks visitor centre. Trails range from short shoreline walks to the multi-day Cape Chignecto Coastal Loop — one of the toughest and most rewarding hikes in Atlantic Canada.

• June through October for full trail access and services
• July and August are warmest but busiest — book cabins early
• September offers cool hiking weather and fewer bugs
• Always check tide charts before beach or shoreline sections

• Cape Chignecto Coastal Loop — 51 km, 3–4 days, backcountry camping or cabins
• Refugee Cove day hike — sea stacks and a hidden cobble beach
• Mill Brook Falls — shorter waterfall hike from Red Rocks
• Eatonville trailhead — access the Three Sisters sea stacks
• Wildlife watching — moose, bald eagles, and seabirds along the cliffs
• Backcountry cabins and walk-in tent sites (reservations required)

Wild Caraway Restaurant & Café — in Advocate Harbour, a short drive from the park entrance. Fresh local seafood, garden vegetables, and Fundy views.

The Lighthouse on Cape d'Or — historic copper-and-gold lighthouse on a dramatic cliff point between the park and Advocate Harbour. Serves soups, sandwiches, chowder, and seafood in a dining room with floor-to-ceiling views of the bay. The same site also runs a small hostel and art gallery inside the original lightkeeper's house.
