Two Islands Beach in January…

When the waters meet… January 6th, 2026 – longing for summer! But, no matter the weather and temperature: private tours continue year-round!!

New Year’s Blessings…

Chilly woodland walk anticipating the Wolf Moon… sparkling ice crystals safely attached to brittle branches, dappled sunlight through the trees and patches of blue sky with the first super moon of 2026 rising over the Parrsboro Aboiteau.

Ancient Cliffs and Gently Lapping Waves…

When asked what I would like for Christmas I could only come up with one thing: solitude and time at the beach. The tides were on my side, a morning walk was quickly arranged and I was off to Clarke Head. I have lost count of how often I have walked this stretch of beach,Continue reading “Ancient Cliffs and Gently Lapping Waves…”

Special Days!!

We had a couple whirlwind days last week. On Thursday I hosted two travel industry consultants from British Columbia hired by Tourism Nova Scotia. There was an instant connection. It is always wonderful to get insights from industry professionals who can assess one’s business efforts and suggest new practices to streamline behind-the scenes operations. ThroughContinue reading “Special Days!!”

From your guide to your participant…

I had the distinct pleasure of joining historian Dr. Jeff Orr on a Parrsboro historic sites tour at dusk last night. Highly recommend this guided tour with all proceeds going to the Parrsborough Shore Historical Society for the upgrades of interpretive panels.

Following the tide out…

Two Islands Beach with two Besties since Grade 1! What a fantastic way to spend a Saturday Afternoon😁

Autumn Sunrise…

When your day starts at 4:45 am to guide an early tour to experience a 7:10 am sunrise… so very peaceful!

May 2025 started with a busier-than-expected tour schedule. With clients from Boston, Edmonton, Montreal and Halifax, the calendar filled up quickly.

Foraging Weekend!

For the first time this month I had the weekend off. The weather has been stellar and the tides were favourable for replenishing our dulse stash. Dulse (Palmaria palmata) is an edible seaweed rich in nutrients and popular among maritimers. Every community boats that they have THE best dulse and with prices online of aroundContinue reading “Foraging Weekend!”

Looking for Treasures…

I enjoyed this Sunday morning tour with Deb and her grandson studying rocks and minerals around Partridge Island. Deb had contacted me a few weeks ago to see if I would accommodate them for a treasure hunt. The tides were favourable. We explored the weir, the beach, columnar basalt cliffs and spent time warming upContinue reading “Looking for Treasures…”
