Beautiful Scenery is Everywhere in Cape Breton

There's beautiful scenery everywhere you look in Cape Breton!  And there are plenty of look-offs with stunning views of this scenery. 

Many people think of the Cabot Trail when they think of Cape Breton scenery, but as you can see, scenery can be found in other areas of the island such as Irish Cove.  This was taken from the look-off along the Route 4 highway.  Rolling hills that meet the Bras d'Or Lakes....a vastly different type of scenery from the rugged coastline that meets the Atlantic Ocean that you see when traveling around the Cabot Trail. 

Cape Breton Sunsets are Unforgettable

Cape Breton Island is known for it's spectacular natural beauty and one way that that natural beauty presents itself is through spectacular sunsets like this one I captured at River Ryan, not too far from my house.  New Victoria, Dominion, Inverness, Cheticamp and Port Hood likely have the most stunning sunsets I've ever seen anywhere but you can enjoy watching the sun go down from pretty much anywhere on the island. 

Just look at those vibrant colours!  Sunsets, like this one I captured at the New Bridge in River Ryan, are an almost nightly occurrence, especially in the summer months when the skies are clear.  If you ever make it this way, I guarantee that you'll experience a magical sunset like no other you've experiences anywhere else. Grab some beer or a glass of wine, a comfy chair, your camera and someone special to share the moment with and I promise it's something you won't soon forget.
