Hotels in Nova Scotia Cities
Nova Scotia (New Scotland) is one of four provinces that make up Atlantic
Canada along with New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Prince Edward Island. Nova
Scotia lies on the East coast of Canada and is almost entirely surrounded by the
Atlantic Ocean. Nova Scotia also includes the island of Cape Breton. Much of the
province is dotted with forest and lakes, with the larger urban centres along
the seacoast.
Nova Scotia offers both the cosmopolitan and vibrant Halifax with its beautiful
architecture and historic seaport, as well as wonderful outdoor and
eco-tourism opportunities throughout the province.
