Nova Scotia has a wealth of provincial parks. Some are small picnic areas, and others are large parks with a variety of facilities.  Pomquet Beach is a provincial beach park north east of Antigonish (Taylor Road off Highway 104 between exits 35 and 36) in the Northumberland Shore region. This 3-km (2-mi) supervised beach (July and August) has the best example of dune succession in Nova Scotia.   The beach has a gentle slope and occasional sand bars. Other park features include boardwalks, interpretive display, change house, and flush toilets. The park is available for group use.  There is a Tea Room near the park, as well as monthly summer festivals.


Government operated.

Open May 20 – October 10

Yurt Backcountry Camping at Kejimkujik National Park
The big camping experience last winter was spending a night in a yurt at kejimkujik national park. The only problem was finding an open weekend to book one of the two Yurts at the park. With time running out, we booked a single overnight in late March at the Eel Weir Yurt.
