Did the West half of Nova Scotia last year so my daughter could meet my grandmother. Spent 3 days in Halifax, 2 days all over the Annapolis Valley with my grandmother who lives in Coldbrook, then drove out to Yarmouth to see my aunt and uncle and took the South Shore back to Halifax. Very laid back trip.
Came to suggest Church Brewing but it has been covered. Halls Harbour (about 30 minutes away) is a small fishing village with an amazing lobster pound and restaurant where you can just pick whatever lobster you want cooked form the daily catch. Along the North shore it's very quiet and you can walk the rocky beaches without anyone else around.
Peggy's Cove is touristy but who cares do it anyways.
Also eat some Larsen's and report back. That was my great grandfather's but was sold back 20 years ago.
