Whichever trip you choose, the staff at Coastal Spirit Expeditions is dedicated to making each trip a once in a lifetime experience.

The Murray House: Each of the
following three multi-day tours will begin with a festive pre-trip evening spent at our
century old heritage home and end there with a celebration of Maritime proportions. |

NORTHUMBERLAND
STRAIT Sand, sun
and surf make up the gentle coastline of the north shore of Nova Scotia where we enjoy
some of the warmest waters north of the Carolinas. Quaint fishing villages decorate this
coastline giving you the feel of what Maritime life is all about. The gradual slope of the
sea bottom leaves a rich and abundant tidal zone, home to shoreline birds and ducks unique
to the region. It also provides a staging area for Bald Eagles and Osprey. Seal colonies,
playful porpoises and the odd pod of pilot whales can also be spotted in the
Northumberland Strait.
DATES: June 4-9, June 25-30, July 16-21, Aug. 6-11, Aug. 24-29, Aug. 27-Sept.1
COST: $ 895 incl. tax |

THE BAY OF FUNDY
– Cape Chignecto Here you will find the extremes of
Nova Scotia. The area not only boasts the highest cliffs on mainland Nova Scotia and some
of the largest whales in the world; it is also home to the highest tides on the planet.
These extreme tides will leave you with two distinct pictures of the same place, making it
one of the most remarkable regions to paddle.
DATES: June 11-16, July 2-7, July 23-28, Aug. 13-18, Sept. 3-8

CAPE BRETON
HIGHLANDS Reminiscent
of northern Scotland: rugged coastlines, dramatic valleys and sheer beauty make up the

world are found here. With majestic bald eagles and osprey soaring above, and pilot whales
chasing mackeral below, each corner holds another breathtaking image.
