Great spot to have bite, pick up locally grown produce. They often carry the coveted Dragon's Breath cheese, a locally made blue that's superb, created by The Dutchman (South Shore of Nova Scotia).

I love Steeple Green. A relatively new addition to the Eastern Shore, this bookstore and performance venue (mostly music) is just about the best thing that’s popped up in the hood. Drop by on your way back from Martinique Beach or before a bite at Harbour Fish & Fry

Great spot for a bite, good coffee and epic views. Take a walk behind the tea house along the bluff. Great spot to watch surfing and kit surfing action. There's a wonderful local craft shop on the main floor and upstairs a small art gallery of work by Judith Brannen. You'll also find a top notch thrift shop.
