    Murphy's Camping on the ocean - HIGHLY recommend
    Adventure East Campground in Baddeck

    We're heading there this July. So far, I've got 5 nights booked at Fundy NP, 5 nights at Cape Breton Highlands NP (Broad Cove), 3 nights at Mountain Top Cottages & CG near Annapolis Valley. Going to book 4 nights at Graves Island PP & Five Islands PP when the window opens. We're also going to tent camp up at Meat Cove at least one night (leave our 5th wheel at Broad Cove).

    Should be an exciting trip. We've never camped in Nova Scotia before. I thought about heading to Gaspe, even Newfoundland (Gros Morne) but we'll have to do that on another trip.
  • Yep, waiting for the Graves window to open too. Had reservations there last fall (and then Cape Breton and Cavendish). Had to cancel a week ahead due to illness on the road. Good thing - our first night at Graves would have been the day Dorian made landfall.....

    Graves Island looks like a nice spot, and close to Halifax & Lunenburg.
