Sylvie Mazerolle and I connected in late June and the idea of a photography retreat in the area crystallized. I had the distinct pleasure to guide this dynamic group of hardy women with cameras last Saturday! The following images and movie clips tell a better story than words. Enjoy! From Port Greville to Spencer’s Island,Continue reading “Thanksgiving Photography Retreat…”

Whirlwind Week of Touring!
My best intentions of keeping the blog up-to-date 2 to 3 times a week have been quickly derailed this week. My tour schedule heated up with the weather and I focussed on providing great experiences for clients from near and far. Last Sunday I had the pleasure of spending time with Angela from Maine. HerContinue reading “Whirlwind Week of Touring!”
Quick Excursion to Cape d’Or
We were so pleased to reconnect with our friends from Saskatchewan today. Susan and Brian are spending some time in Nova Scotia. Knowing how much they love to discover new landscapes we made the late afternoon decision to make a quick trip to Cape d’Or. The light and the cliffs did not disappoint!

Cliffs of Fundy Geopark UNESCO Revalidation Event at Cape d’Or
After last night’s special event at Cape d’Or my energy to prepare a proper blogpost was depleted. The event’s focus was on tourism and activities provided by business operators since the inception of the Cliffs of Fundy Geopark. Local Guys Adventures and my guided tour business “Tide Rollers & Mudlarkers” were front and centre withContinue reading “Cliffs of Fundy Geopark UNESCO Revalidation Event at Cape d’Or”
An Evening to Remember…
It was an honour to be invited as a business operator located in the Cliffs of Fundy Geopark to take part in a Tourism Nova Scotia presentation for recertification of the Geopark. The event took place at Cape d’Or with a meal to die for! Witnessing the full Sturgeon Moon rise as we hiked backContinue reading “An Evening to Remember…”
A Beach Clean Up Story…
The call for a beach clean up in West Advocate was posted by the Cliffs of Fundy GeoPark a couple weeks ago. With the cancellation of the Hike Summit my Monday was suddenly free, so I ventured out to Advocate Harbour this morning. I arrived a little early. Once the light rain slowed I beganContinue reading “A Beach Clean Up Story…”
Tour Day: Parrsboro to Advocate and Back
The sun returned today and set the stage for a fabulous day to explore the area with visitors. Our first stop was in West Advocate where we strolled along Driftwood Beach and admired Red Rocks at the Cape Chignecto Park entrance from afar. Thank goodness for four-wheel drive. The approach to Cape d’Or, our nextContinue reading “Tour Day: Parrsboro to Advocate and Back”
Road Hike to Cape d’Or
I am calling this a “road hike” because that is exactly what we did today. We met at the bottom of the first hill on the Cape d’Or access road in Advocate. I joined the first group hike of 2023 expecting more of an adventure on less travelled paths. In the end I was notContinue reading “Road Hike to Cape d’Or”
Red Rocks Beach in West Advocate and Cape d’Or
I had the pleasure of leading a bus tour with 26 participants down shore yesterday. Our first destination was West Advocate where the Red Rocks beckoned. The group even spotted a seal close to shore in the waters of the outgoing tide. The landscape was shrouded in mist for most of the day. As weContinue reading “Red Rocks Beach in West Advocate and Cape d’Or”
Down Shore…
Horseshoe Cove near Cape d’Or at low tide provided tranquility and solitude during our first stop in the morning. I was able to dip my toes into the Bay of Fundy for the first time this year. Walking on the fine sand provides the best pedicure! After three and a half hours looking for “treasures”Continue reading “Down Shore…”
Anticipation…
The rainy day yesterday led to a light dusting of snow overnight. While scrolling through images I was drawn to the one featured today. It was created on a warm November day last year. For me it holds the promise of warmer days, calmer days and days that bring peace, better health for all andContinue reading “Anticipation…”
When the Sun Shines in November…
The Fundy GeoPark has countless destinations to explore. Cape d’Or is well worth the trip, especially on a sunny and mild day in November…
