Love the Eastern Shore Beaches |

Memories are made in Nova Scotia, one of the most romantic spots in
the world where the romance of the sea is never far away. Many well-known

Day, or any time
of the year, why not surprise 'your' significant other with a cosy and
romantic getaway for just the two of you? Here are 10 very special Romantic
Getaways in Greater Halifax or within a short drive along the coast.
