DESTINATION REPORT: Nova Scotia Travel, Hotels, Restaurants, Inns, Cottage Rentals :
NOVA SCOTIA
The recommended travel
seasons include summer and fall; spring for avid fisherman who don't mind the blackflies.
The weather in summer is sublime, usually with glorious sunny days and warm
temperature, almost always cooling off at night. Fall color rivals that
anywhere in North America, with crisp days and cold nights. The
level of accommodations and dining in the province gets steadily better each
year, and we have recommendations for several very worthwhile destinations.
