Point of View at Louisburg
Louisburg is very educational. Very realistic roll playing inhabitants.

Jumping off place for the Newfoundland ferry. Mine tour extremely interesting. Be able to bend for long periods.

Red Barn Restaurant, St Michael’s Parrish (nightly Ceilidh), Iona, Bird Island (Englishtown), Sydney, Rollie’s Wharf (fiddle music on Thursday, North Sydney)
Ceilidh at Gaelic College is not to be missed.
It you are thinking about Nova Scotia south shore Lunenberg and the Folk Harbor Festival (August) is wonderful. Mahone Bay and Peggy's Cove are worth seeing.
We stayed at Graves Island Provencial Park (no electric or sewer) but wonderful sites on a grassy island.

Great place to be while exploring Cabot Trail via toad. Good hiking trails nearby as well. The road up had a couple of hairpin curves but doable.
Most people stay on the other side (Cheticamp) and is an easier road up in a big rig.
