White Point Beach Resort is a year-round, oceanfront beach vacation destination centrally located on Nova Scotia's South Shore. We were named one of the top 10 coastal destinations in the world by National Geographic Traveler in October 2010! We offer oceanfront and lakeside accommodations, cottages and vacation homes; exciting programs for all ages; and event and conference facilities.
Surrounded by water, White Point boasts an extensive variety of recreation facilities and programs. The 1km white sand beach is perfect for relaxing, strolling and enjoying the soft white sand and pounding surf. The rolling waves of the Atlantic are perfect for playing in with a boogie board or even surfing, yes lessons are available! While the beach is considered a main attraction, the freshwater lake boasting a boathouse with canoes and paddleboats are certainly enjoyed by all. Take a paddle around the Islands and even go for a swim. Kayaks and surfing equipment are also available from the Boathouse.
The indoor heated saltwater pool and hot tub, outdoor pool, tennis courts, beach volleyball area and outdoor shuffleboard are all very popular too. There are also nature trails, a CPGA Donald J. Ross designed 9-hole golf course (golf lessons available), day spa, fitness room, recreation centre, games room, children's playground, and a variety of complimentary recreation programs and activities for all ages. Nightly we gather by the beachside bonfire to roast marshmallows and even Mussel Bakes occasionally.
White Point is centrally located, just 90 minutes from historic Halifax, with a variety of day trips at our doorstep including the UNESCO World Heritage Site Lunenburg, Kejimkujik National Park and Seaside, whale watching on the Bay of Fundy, and the vineyards of the Annapolis Valley to name a few.
Our accommodations include 131 units (King, Queen, Double, Twin, Single): 44 cottages (1- to 3-bedroom; winterized with a fireplace or woodstove in living room; balcony, bar fridge, coffee maker, DVD player and complimentary firewood); 74 rooms and 13 convenient vacation homes. All accommodations include a 4-piece bath, colour cable television, goose down duvets, hair dryer, iron and ironing board. There are 12 cots available ($10.00 fee per day). Cribs are available at no charge. Babysitting services are available. Other amenities include our licensed dining room, lounge with live entertainment, and gift shop. Pets are permitted (with the exception of the Main Lodge), but you must advise front desk staff.
White Point is a proud member of Taste of Nova Scotia and celebrates the bounty of our harvests in our menus. While our Dinner Buffets have become famous, featuring many local dishes and favourites, the menu in the Seawatch Dining Room will definitely whet your appetite. The wine menu also features the most extensive Nova Scotia Wine list in the province. Dining at White Point is a must as you enjoy the stunning views overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.
Of course, we must mention the bunnies at White Point. Guests of all ages are delighted to be greeted by our resident bunnies who only ask that you grab your bag of bunny food (complimentary) from the front desk and feed them!
