The town is known for a history of wooden boat building, the main industry in its earlier years.
The view across the harbour is of the three prominent churches: St James' Anglican; St. John's Evangelical Lutheran; and Trinity United, which has become an iconic image of Nova Scotia. Mahone Bay has a number of upscale shops and restaurants which are designed to appeal to the tourist industry.

Interesting style of house |
Marilyn, lovely post. I'm driving across Canada and I've seen some very very interesting homes, I saw this sort of gazebo style on top of a house on the beach for a lookout. It seems as though the water is very low.
