Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia


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.

  1. 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.
