Manuel technique du canot

The province of Nova Scotia, has some of the most spectacular coastline on the continent. Much of it is hidden from the recreational camper and casual hiker and has changed little since the Europeans first arrived over 400 years ago. The sea kayak is the ideal craft for exploring those isolated nooks and crannies, where few other vessels dare to venture. Poke into a sea cave that has been eroded into sheer cliffs, or paddle over the highest tides on the earth. Follow a glacier-scoured coast, relax on soft beaches, or camp in the splendid isolation of a deserted island where your only companions are seals and sea birds. It's illustrated with maps and photos, describes 37 of the best coastal paddling routes in the province, including departure points, trip lengths, and necessary charts and maps. Of special note are the Safety Considerations and the detailed Points of Interest.
