Lockeport

Lockeport is located on a narrow peninsula on the South Shore, surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean—creating a classic maritime setting and feeling. The town is most renowned for Crescent Beach, a pristine stretch of sand that draws people with its natural beauty and opportunities for beachcombing and swimming.

Lockeport's small-town charm is evident in its welcoming community, where locals take pride in their fishing traditions and close-knit atmosphere. The town's waterfront features colourful fishing boats, and the Lockeport Historical Society & Marine Museum provides insights into the area's seafaring history. And nearby, the scenic and historic lighthouse at Cape Roseway offers residents panoramic views of the coastline and the open sea.

Despite its small size, Lockeport offers a peaceful retreat for those seeking a coastal escape. The town's unhurried pace, scenic landscapes, and the sound of waves lapping against the shore contribute to Lockeport's appeal as a hidden gem along Nova Scotia's South Shore.
