The Town of Mulgrave is located on the mainland shore of the Strait of Canso, facing Cape Breton Island. Life in Mulgrave unfolds at a gentle pace, allowing residents to appreciate the natural beauty of the coastline and the camaraderie of a small coastal community. 

The town's waterfront is a focal point, offering stunning views of the Strait and providing a sense of connection to the ocean. Fishing has historically been a significant part of Mulgrave's identity, and remnants of this seafaring heritage can be seen in the fishing boats that continue to dot the harbour.

Mulgrave's tight-knit community values its close connections, and residents enjoy local events and activities that bring neighbours together. The waterfront park is a popular gathering place, offering a peaceful place to stroll, enjoy the ocean breeze, and take in the scenic surroundings.

Mulgrave offers many modern facilities—such as a school, pool, public library, medical centre and fire hall—that are indispensable to community life. The town's maritime character, combined with its friendly atmosphere, makes Mulgrave a serene haven for those seeking a peaceful coastal retreat in Nova Scotia.
