Sea Adventures with Discover the Strait’s Capt. Amy Tour

Set against the rugged beauty of Nova Scotia’s North Shore, Capt.

Departing from Caribou Fishermen's Wharf near the town of Pictou, this two-hour maritime excursion immerses guests in a landscape defined by sandy beaches, dense tree lines, and the enduring character of quaint coastal communities.

From the moment you step onto the dock, the rustic energy of an active Nova Scotia fishing harbor sets the scene. Captain Amy greets travelers with a down-to-earth safety briefing and a tour of her boat, grounding the journey in local maritime culture. As you glide through crystal-clear waters, the coastline unfolds in sweeping panoramas featuring weathered homes and villages that have thrived here for generations.

Wildlife sightings add an enriching layer to the voyage. Keep an eye out for seals bobbing playfully near the shore or seabirds tracing graceful arcs overhead. Captain Amy’s storytelling connects passengers to the region’s seafaring heritage, weaving narratives about the fishing life and natural history.
