Lobster Supper

Looking for a Nova Scotia Lobster meal?

No Roadtrip through Nova Scotia is complete without indulging in the great seafood that makes this province famous.

There are so many amazing places to get the seafood you love across the province, and every fishing village has great spots for lobster rolls, scallops, clams, mussels, and more. One of our favourite places to hit every time we visit Nova Scotia is the Shore Club, in Hubbards Nova Scotia.

Off the beaten path, this place is not an easy place to find, but definitely worth the trip.
Their menu is simple. You start with all-you-can-eat salad, mussels, and bread, but the reason you are there, is the beautiful Lobster dinner.  They offer 3 sizes: small, medium, and large, and it comes complete with the melted butter. Additional menu items for children are also available, including hotdogs, and grilled cheese sandwiches as well.

The Shore Club has been in business serving up Lobster to many hungry tourists and locals for over 80 years, and has a huge following. Tourists flock to this place for an authentic East Coast Lobster Feast, and as a result, there can be quite a wait to get in during peak periods. Their lobster is steamed fresh for for you, and as this restaurant is very popular, there may be a bit of a wait time, so don't be in a hurry when you go.

The Shore Club is located about 45 minutes south of Halifax at:
250 Shore Club Road
Hubbards NS, B0J 1T0

Nova Scotia Traveller?

Who is Nova Scotia Traveller?

That is a great question!

I am the descendant of a true blue BlueNoser. My father was born and raised in Sydney, Nova Scotia to immigrants from Ireland and France. Their history is hard to pin down, but basically they settled in Nova Scotia in the Early part of 1900's and had a very large Family.
In order to have something of a future, my father moved to Ontario, but his heart was always firmly planted in Nova Scotia. Travelling to Nova Scotia was basically our only vacation destination, as my father insisted on showing us the beauty of his home province.

My own love of Nova Scotia developed and grew over the years, and I became addicted to visiting Nova Scotia. I love the scenery, the seafood, the beauty, and the hospitality of the people. There is nowhere I have been that is quite the same as the awesomeness of Nova Scotia.

I have a back ground in Social Media Marketing from Algonquin College.  I am employed as a Social Media Manager, working for many small companies helping them manage their social media and online presence to maximize sales, improve business, and grow traffic while engaging with potential customers.
As a very avid traveller, I have a strong passion for all types of travel. I took this love of travel & Tourism, and furthered my education with training in Travel & Tourism from Canadian Tourism College. 

I have decided to put my passions together, and create a place where I could share my loves with other travellers to help them discover new places, find great adventures, and enjoy parts of the world they may have never been. I have chosen to create NovaScotiaTraveller because f my deep rooted love for the province. While I do not live in Nova Scotia, I seem to visit Canada's Ocean Playground many times. I have been there during every season, and have found benefits to visiting at any time of year.

I love so much about Nova Scotia, and would love to live there one day, and make Social Media Travel blogging my purpose. There is so much to see and do in NS, and we have a propensity for finding the undiscovered / underrated gems.

What brings me back to Nova Scotia time and time again: the scenery, the ocean, seafood, agriculture, history, culture, and hospitality.

I want to work with Nova Scotia tourism operators, to help bolster their business, attract visitors, and show people from around the world - what I see in Nova Scotia.

Sydney Harbour

Cruise Season is coming.

Are you planning a Cruise this summer?

There are many great itineraries for cruises that let you explore the Atlantic side of North America.
In recent years, many cruise ships have been including Sydney Harbour as a port of call. This has been very exciting for the province of Nova Scotia, and more importantly, for the City of Sydney, Nova Scotia. 

When you arrive at the Port of Sydney, one of the first things you will see is the Big Fiddle. The fiddle is a historic part of Cape Breton & Nova Scotia life. There are ceilidh's which are parties or gatherings where the participants enjoy local music, food, and drink. The fiddle is a huge part of the musical scene of Cape Breton, and there are many famous Canadian musicians who have made it big, playing the fiddle (Ashley MacIsaac & Natalie MacMaster to name a couple).

Pose for photos in front of this iconic structure when you visit Sydney. Share your own photos on Social media using the hashtags #BigFiddle, #portofSydneyNS, and #NovaScotiaTraveller

The Big Fiddle in Port of Sydney, is just one of the many fun roadside attractions you can find in Nova Scotia. If you are planning a Road Trip, we plan to share with you some of the many greats.
Blueberries, Lobsters, BlueNosers, and many more.
