If you've already checked out Lawrencetown Beach, you need to check out Conrad's Beach. A smaller, very well-known, beach but plenty of golden sand to lounge out on. Don't forget the sunscreen!

Consejos para la ciudad

Cómo moverse

Having your own vehicle or rent one

To easily get around to all of the places, it's best if you have your own vehicle or rent one to use. Public transit is available, but mostly in Halifax/Dartmouth. Nova Scotia offers rentals through the major rental companies (Enterprise, etc.). You can also rent through Turo (car sharing app like Airbnb).
