Hi Mike,
Last summer we sailed up to Nova Scotia (from RI) and, when we got
there, we used the CCA guide. It seemed adequate for the harbor
hopping that we did from Shelburne to St Petes, Bras D'or Lakes. It
is bare bones though -- mostly narrative and none of the illustrated
charts that are common in other cruising guides I've seen. There are
lots of places along the NS coast to drop the hook but if you need
fuel and supplies (gas in my case as I still have the original Atomic
4 in my C&C33) the options are limited between Halifax and St Peters.
In fact, even Mahone bay, where I thought for sure there would be
fuel, only had diesel at the gas dock so we had to ferry fuel in jerry
cans from gas station using the dinghy -- all part of the fun!
Luckily the winds were very cooperative so we didn't really need much
fuel.

This one is getting to be quite out of date now but was good when
we first used it back in 2010: Cruising Guide to the Canadian
Maritimes, 1st Edition, 2007 (Capt. Cheryl Barr)
Cruising Guide to the Canadian Maritimes covers ports and harbours
of southern Newfoundland, Cape Breton, Magdalen Islands,
Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon and PEI. It has sailing directions for
the Bras d'Or Lakes, Great Bras d'Or, Baddeck Harbour.

Ok Gang, asking for a friend who plans on sailing north and
invading your Canadian Coastline this Summer.
What is a good Cruising Guide Source for Nova Scotia etc?
there are a couple on Amazon (one put out by CCA) but he tells
me they are terrible.
Any suggestions? Sadly he has an Albin Trawler (so you might
not want his sorry butt in Canada)
