  • @JB-sz4wy
    @JB-sz4wy Před 6 lety +1

    The towns are nice in summer although you may risk rain if you come before late May or after early October and with Newfoundland that is even more so

    • @ThePlanetD
      @ThePlanetD  Před 6 lety

      Thanks for the tip! It's true, weather can play a factor, we always make sure to pack our layers

    • @JB-sz4wy
      @JB-sz4wy Před 6 lety

      Also to keep in mind weather where you go-
      Southern Nova Scotia is NOT necessarily warmer at all than Northern NS or Cape Breton. The mean annual temperature may be slightly higher although its very little/no difference due to the fact that there are fewer cold days or nights in the year. Although the South Shore often has cool winds on many days blowing so on a warm day in spring, summer and fall, Northern Nova Scotia and Cape Breton in many areas will actually often put on MORE heat, including at this time of year aswell. Northern Nova Scotia is more unpredictable as one day can be way warmer than another (the South Shore is more constrained). Sydney will get hotter afternoons than Shelburne and Yarmouth and Amherst and Truro can get really warm but the nights can soar right down in the latter, including Cape Breton
      Newfoundland though not pertaining to this site is visited by a lot of people and has Nova Scotia features (similar coasts, lots of fish and pubs and stuff) though the weather can be wilder. One day in May or early June can be very cool (as low as 5 or so and 1 or 2 occasionally less) if there is a wind off the ice though another can be up close to 20 and sometimes more in late May/early June. So it can be prone to changing really quick one day or another. Newfoundland, though rougher, is not actually always colder. PEI is similar to NS although the late winter (February and early March) can be rough due to winds off the Northumberland often giving it colder weather than NS, Cape Breton and even the Island of Newfoundland though late March catches up on PEI and April is similar to Nova Scotia but varies a lot. New Brunswick is more continental, but thats especially Northern which can get cold in winter and hot in summer and the seasonal extremes, though it is drier. Stay out of Northern NB in winter unless you want to ski. Labrador is also cold although its harder to access that and is remote. Southern NB is more continental than NS but in the same climate range

    • @JB-sz4wy
      @JB-sz4wy Před 6 lety

      And sorry for the rant about the other provinces you dont need to read it but NS is part of the block of all four so if you visit Atlantic Canada in your life you should try to get to all at some point they are all interesting in one way or another. In Nova Scotia you have to be aware of the fact that rural areas may have bad amenities. Some great places to see are Petes Frootique cafe (lots of good coffee/estate teas) in Wolfville and the winery which makes lots of good wines. The Cape Breton trail is nice although in rural areas you may not get as good accommodations as you think. The Keltic Lodge though expensive has a very poor restaurant menu. Still if you are in Cape Breton there are shortcut roads off the main highway to get to Sydney easily which I have found and took advantage of. Lunenburg though a UNESCO site has some fish restaurants but all the best ones go to Bridgewater, etc. There are shortcuts however to the urban areas from other places you may want to go if you want anything

    • @amyj4835
      @amyj4835 Před 8 lety +1

      No, not to Nova Scotia. It's a peninsula, so there is a small strip of land connecting it to the mainland of Canada. There are parts of the province that one must take a boat to reach though, and to reach Newfoundland, the next province to the north, one must take a long ferry-ride.

    Wait, you couldn’t include Shelburne, Barrington Passage, or Cape Sable Island in a video about the “Lighthouse Route”, but you found time for Mahone Bay and a bakery? Oh come on, that’s a bit disingenuous and a really poor excuse! Not like there’s any history in THOSE places, right?

    • @ThePlanetD
      @ThePlanetD  Před 6 lety

      I would love to got to Sable Island. Sadly we didn't make it there. Sadly we didn't spend enough time in Shelburne, but we will definitely come back. We love visiting Nova Scotia. The following summer we did the Cabot Trail, Bay of Fundy and other parts of the province north of Halifax. There is so much that we have yet to see and do. Thanks for the recommendations. I will definitely make sure to see them when we come back!
