We offer day tours, multi-day tours, special tours and professional instruction.

At CSE emphasis is placed on service, quality, fun, and of course your personal safety. Whichever trip you choose, the staff at Coastal Spirit Expeditions is dedicated to making each trip a once in a lifetime experience.

CABOT TRAIL

Join us on one of the most spectacular bike tours of North America. From the scenic sea side village of Baddeck, through the rolling hills of the Margaree Valley to the Acadian fishing village of Cheticamp, the Cabot Trail winds around the rocky splendour of Cape Breton’s northern shore. You will experience indescribable colours as you ascend to the incredible plateaus of Cape Breton Highlands National Park and descend to the beautiful beaches of Ingonish. This magnificent trail is carved into the sides of glacial-carved mountains that rise high above the shimmering waters of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Lookouts offer unforgettable vistas of Cape Breton’s rugged coastline, where pods of whales can be seen just offshore and bald eagles soar aloft on the ocean breezes.

This tour is shuttle supported with 4 star accommodations at some of the premier inns and lodges along the Cabot Trail.
